    Just to let you know that we are expecting 250 pairs of our Footrests to appear today! Sorry for the delay in re - stocking.

    Also, we have just finished these Rod Ends made from Aerospace Alloy and fitted with Genuine Ohlins Spherical Bearings.

    http://hva-factory.com/frame-fixings/ohlins-billet-aerospace-alloy-rod-ends-6-different-lengths

    An easy way to make a small change in shock length or good to get away from the dreadful rubber bush on the earlier bikes:

    Yes, very good . I have made them the hard way then found out they were a half inch to long and had to cut them down and re weld. Nice to see these on the market. Good thinking.

    OK - so we are off to France tomorrow for a few days! It is that time again to go to the Auroux 2 day Retro Enduro where we will be beaten to within an inch of our lives by some very fast Frenchmen!!!

    Hoping I can do better than scrape into the top 10 like I did last year. I will be giving the 410 / 84 L/C fourstroke prototype its first proper outing...

    Wish me luck - I am going to need it
