Looks good :) I've got a Honda rvf 400 which I love. Ride a 2003 r1 mostly but love the feeling of hopping back on the 4 and ringing it's neck. The 400s made in the 90s are very special indeed

Yeah I want it level, so doing the beam on the floor will be a lot easier than on the car you think then? Hopefully everything is nice and free when it arrives

Yeah I'm hoping it's fairly free as it had a full overhaul with new parts and bearings. Have you ever lowered a 205 before? am I right in thinking each spline is roughly 15mm or so lower? I've never d...
