From the same model and age bike. Tyres is definitely a 120/70/17 (Michelin Road 4). Either way, I'm happy as it works!

Getting it cleaned and ready for MOT on Monday. "New" forks means that is now sorted. I will one day get new stantions for it, but I have to save up for that. New LED indicators are much nicer. I'm quietly pleased with how the bike has turned out, it just needs a really good clean!!

Thanks for that Skub. One day. I got a call this morning, MOT moved to Thursday as the equipment needs to be calibrated.
