Cheers guys.
Black bob - I have now changed the rear shock to an Ohlins of the S model and love the diffrence. I would say the whole bike feels slightly softer now but the biggest change is the plushness of the suspension. Both front and rear seem to deal with bumps and uneven road so much much better now whereas before the swap any kind up bump hand me buckarooing out of the seat. Can't wait for some nice summer days now
The fender extends is a Carbon Pyramid jobby off eBay. Think I only paid around £30 for it.
