Rear tyres only lasted first week when purchased so put these on the front, amazing grip!

extractors in



Did not have fun installing them...

Not to sure on cam, something that will give me filthy power gains. Any recomendations for cam specs for the l76 used as a daily??

No idea If it's any good but repco have a sale at the moment on spray can version of the vinyl wrap stuff. $49 per can. Each can covers two rims. Seems like a decent option if the stuff works.

Took the front grill off to see how it looks, will probably make a plain black grill for it shortly.
