Still, I would like to see some pics of the 'bending process' before I knacker mine...

referring to? I had to dismantle mine recently (a small repair, and it

was out of warranty anyway), and was very surprised at how easy it

was. Just eight screws to remove, some work on getting the bumpers out

(will bend the frame a bit, but you just bend it back at the end), and

you have a clear path to the HD.


Regards,

David
