Many thanks for the message [ I've been down to Worlds End Motorcycles - brillaint for anything Bros.and very good Mail order as well.
Downloaded a basis handbook [for a Hawk] from one of the links on the WEMoto Website - links for both the hawk & bros are worldwide with many interesting articles to be down loaded.
Bros 650 is great - light - agile - good brakes but stock suspension could do with upgrading.
Anybody know best souce for "better" progressive fork springs" and for a slip on can?
Anybody fitted a Fireblade rear shock ? belive mods are fairly easy?
