Looking good Gitzy.

Cheers Wack.. well just went to fit my new clutch, all was going well until I tried fitting the cover back on, and that stupid fuckeddy retarded fucking pullrod kept not going where it was suppose to (R1 owners would know what i'm bitching bout) well i ended up tearing the new gasket didn't I, so I just ordered an untearable (supposedly) cometic gasket.. should be here in a week or so.. grrrrrr.
