Blasphemy!

Some KTM goodies have arrived ........ now waiting for the Triumph Rat.net thunderbolt to strike me down for blasphemy

Now all I have to do is make it all fit somehow.

No I'm not using two back brake pedals, but surely one has to fit around the new pegs.

This is going to take some time!

Cheers
