  1. did you take out the O rings where the case studs go through? need changing anyway
  2. that something is more or less done I need light to fit the engine and electrics as its at home
  3. don't even have to play them to make me chuckle. I remember them very well
  4. fantastic, had a good laugh at that. vomit was great
  5. you didn't say if those holes we saw were lens shite or bore shite
  6. it is as I have been twice to Darley Moor. Usually for the last season racing as the stars are there.
  7. just image an new member stumbling over this thread via google....

    nice find/buy mate. when's it going to end?
  10. just watched that on the you tube telly
  11. honing keeps the oil in the bores for longer, thus it increases reliability. it also "cuts" the rings into the bore increasing compression as georgen says
  12. would have been a great day out too
  13. no that was Lotherton nr Leeds

    I tried motorbike maintenance on them and got an old crashed suzuki custom thing donated they basically wrecked it, didn 't know how to turn a spanner. Kids today eh!
  15. can i see pocked holes on the bores or is that a dirty lens? I can't see any honing meself, best way is to measure and check gaps

    no access now and against POR it was, tbh its holding, but I'll change it over just checked the parts book and there's no return spring listed bit wierd

    well I started it tonight, I took pictures but your not seeing them yet whilst tightening up the alloy top yolk about 5 mins later i heard a crack, the alloy had cracked. I didn't over tighten so I can only assume it had fatigued. Luckily I have the steel top yolk that came with the forks so I'll use that. looking for the bloody return spring for the rear brake lever now, I had it, I did,! but where the feck is it? should finish the main build tomorrow evening and I'll have to push it back home then as the hut is in use for air rifle practise. (we have a competition this weekend)
  19. may have taken out the side stand switch/wiring too
  20. its great vapour blasting. Its very time consuming hence the price. At least the cases are done as barrels can be easily sorted via the dishwasher
  21. that wasn't good! make sure all the oil ways are clear then Tommy I would clean the mesh oil strainer too.
  22. seems silly not to and the benefits will outway the hassle
