And this. Hubs no good, only 5 holes for disc.

Smerk? No actually it proved to be a major problem between us until I left. He didn't like being shown up as an arsehole so he decided to try and make my life hell. I had my own unit, it was a sort of reward because I always kept my units immaculate, every day when I started and he was on he'd given it away to someone else, he claimed he'd forgotten and it was an accident, I got more and more annoyed, whenever he wasn't on shift I got my unit, the other managers knew what was going on but didn't intervene, one day after finishing my shift I decided to have it out with him, "Nice Day?" the other manager said, "yeah ok" I replied, "would have been even better with my own unit" He wasn't having that so he pipes up, "It's not your unit, it's Asdas unit" "Funny that, if you look on that list in front of you it clearly has my name against that reg and the rules are you're supposed to consult that list before giving a unit out, now if I wasn't doing my job you'd be all over my arse but you don't do it and it's a mistake and nothing said" He sort of exploded, "I give it away deliberately" he said " Just to piss you off" "You do know that's a form of bullying and can get you in real trouble if I report it" He was a little wary after that but decided to face it out, "I can do what I want and there's nothing you can do" So I reported him, the other manager backed me up that he'd said it. After that I always got my unit but the tension between us could be cut with a knife. I've had him so close to my face ours noses were touching, he was very red in the face and he had his fists clenched, I suppose he didn't like me much  I was a Senior Shop Steward for a number of years and didn't take any bullshit and that annoyed the hell out of him, just a typical bully, doesn't like being stood up to.

Ash, no never tried them, never even heard of them TBH, are they meant for a bench grinder?

Roo, I've used Carnuba Wax on some of my polished surfaces, it can help keep them clean and makes them easier to clean when they get dirty. Depends where the surface is located though, if it has heat going through it I don't bother.

Just measured my Lester rims width Roo. From edge to edge they are exactly 70mm. That's the outside edge not the inside. At the bottom of the trough? it looks to be 2 1/4 inches. Does that help identify your existing rims?

I find the worst thing is looking like a coal miner after a 12 shift at the face 

I have a joke about something like that. 

And this is not the joke but I was telling it at work one day to a manager, I'd warned him from the outset that he may think it was racist but I assured him it wasn't. Got halfway through and he yelled at me "Tell me one more word and I'll suspend you" I kid you not.  Now I thought he was joking so I carried on after giving him a funny look, he then said "That's it, I'm serious, one more word and you're suspended". He then stormed off. There was a female manager by the side of him and I looked at her and said, it's not racist I swear and to prove it I'll tell you the rest of it. At the end she agreed it wasn't racist, the other manager (a bloke I may add) came back, I told him she'd agreed it wasn't racist but he said and I kid you not. "If I think it's racist, then it's racist and that's that".

I replied "Everyone thought the earth was flat many years ago and it turned out not to be, so you can think what you like, it doesn't make you right"

Not sleeping much these days Johnny, I tend to stay awake till 6am most days and then get up around midday, years spent doing nights has ruined my body clock.

The switch is already used by Honda on other bikes, all you really need to do is adapt your existing bolt to help it attach.

Here's what I'll be using, I got the idea after studying my own CB1300 side stand switch, the bolt head has a small 6mm thread inside it, this bolts the switch to the head of the bolt. You need to fit the bolt from the inside out instead of the normal outside in, so you'd need to remove the thread from the existing stand, not hard to do, just drill it to match the other side, a 10mm nut on the outside would hold it in place on the frame, essentially the same as the existing system but the other way round. I also intend to adapt the bolt so it can also grease the stands pivot point, just drill down until your halfway down the bolt, where the bolt flange is inside the frame, another hole drilled crossways across the bolt will mean you can remove the 6mm bolt holding the switch on, fit a 6mm grease nipple and pump the pivot point full of grease, remove the nipple, refit the bolt and jobs done for 2 years or so. Simple really and no taking it all part just to grease it up. Saves wear on the frame as well.

Here's what I mean, hidden so not obtrusive and not up for people pointing it out as non standard etc.

A lot cheaper ones available but this shows the best what I mean.

Presume you've already seen these Roo.

I'd advise a 2.15 rear rim size.

BTW, the sizes you stated in your first post on the subject were the tyre sizes not the rims sizes. AFAIR they are 1.85 as standard. The 750 got 1.85 front but a 2.15 rear. I fitted 2.15 front and rear and found that perfect for my style of riding, the larger section rim means you can use slightly bigger section tyres without suffering from the rim creep you get by retaining the standard rim sizes. As most of my riding was hanging off the side of the bike around corners the larger section tyres were ideal.
