Thanks mate have emailed that bloke. I am also bidding on an Aprilia RS50 at the mo for my boy!:wheelie
Abba or paddock
I have both, but the Abba is by far the best and is the one I use the most (as in 99.9%). It makes it very easy to clean the bike and do maintenance.
As for oiling the chain, suggest you get a Scottoiler. All my bikes in the past 10 years have had one and for good reason. Easy to fit, extends life of chain, self cleaning, no sticky goo everywhere, makes the bike live with wheelies etc much better.

Cheers nutter :biggrin and welcome to the forum :thumbup
I think I'm going for the Abba route, and may look at a scottoiler when the pennies are more freeflowing :thumbup

My thoughts on Scott Oilers, 1) it gets flung all over the bike. 2) Lubing the chain ensures I regularly check the tension and inspect the chain 3) Could go wrong and then you're running a dry chain
Nothing against Oilers, just my thoughts :dunno

Thanks - just jopined the forums as I picked up my RSV last weekend - a Bol D'Or special with 400 miles on it, 5 months old plus carbon Akrapovics, ignition remap etc. Just need some decent weather now!
Annyone want to buy an R6?! I now have the luxury of 2 bikes in my garage (much to my wife's disapproval!)
I have always used front and rear paddock stands but just got abba for xmas i like it better than the paddock stands, only problem with the abba is that it's too wide to use when the bike is on the lift
I could buy a brand new one with adaptors for the mille for £97 :confused do people ever look to see the cost of new stuff or what :jack
