I should check that they're definately, definately not going to write your bike off and get it sold as salvage before you commit to new suspenders.

Quite a lucrative business this bike trashing malarkey.
I know I came out on top when I binned my GSX-R but PB, you're taking it to the extreme... daren't think what your renewal will look like.
