OK I have the wiseco kit spare barrels, what is puzzling me, should I wait as I have only 12000 clicks on the bike.

What mileage had you guys done before installing the kit??

Thanks guys, I thought you would of had a few more miles under the belt before going through the install of the BB.

I think I will wait a while before the install kit, at 12000 the bike is only just run in. I will of course get evrything prepared so I can just swop everything over in a weekend.

Thanks everyone,

I had mine done at 11000 when it was past warranty (little over 2 yrs.).
