77K miles is starting to take its toll a little on the old niner.Â
Â
 A month or so back, I noticed I was missing a few up changes and started to fear the worst that the gearbox may need some attention. In reality, nothing to worry about. On further inspection, the left footrest was a bit wobbly and droopy.
Â
I've never worn out a footrest hanger before!
Â
Â
And the end of the footrest to go with it.

All good now. Initially I made a plate up to go between the foot rest and hanger, which also compensated for the now oval (due to wear) clevis pin holes in the hanger. That was one;y intended as a temporary fix while I sourced a decent used hanger. No such luck there as most were quite heavily corroded. Got a brand new one from Fowlers eBay arm for a bargain £75, so all back to normal again now.Â
