Well, the F2 is rapidly becoming a collection of its constituent parts. Aside from the butchered fork sliders I've found the rear brake master cylinder is also totally goosed. There's loads of other bits I want to replace (coils, cables, most seals and bearings etc etc). On the up-side I did a compression test on the motor (admittedly it was a cold motor) which showed readings all around 160psi and within 5% of each other. So it seems the motor is reasonably healthy. Which is a shame as it will be coming apart anyway
