It's been left rotting to be honest. I can't be bothered fixing it, trying to source parts is a night mare believe it or not. I'm gunna sell it standard, buy another K7 750 and bolt my bits onto it I think but at the moment I'm chucking my money at my car so it won't be happening for a while.
EDIT: Just read the thread back and see that I didn't update it. 
I crashed it basically, complete lack of concentration... I stayed up all night the night before and was tired, just had a Police chase and had tons going through my mind, was in a world of my own and just overrun a roundabout, straight up the popping both Dymag wheels, through a sign post smashing the bike to pieces... Bike cartwheeled and landed in a bush and that's where it stayed until that night. The damage isn't too bad I guess but it will always be a crashed bike and sourcing parts is a nightmare so just flogging it.
It's the 2nd best bike I've ever ridden, so precise... It's a shame I didn't get to finish it. I had a full Ohlin suspension setup ordered for it, rear thumb brake and was going to put a tuned 750 engine in it too. Ah well, I didn't get hurt which was the main thing I guess.

600 and 750 is the same bike, just a different engine... The 600 handled like it's on rails, so I'll be going for a 750 as I got on sooo well with the bike.
