    you need to key in the chrome. i've used a flapwheel in an angle grinder then wet and dry then used an etch primer. I'm sure I read somewhere you can use muratic acid ( used by chippies for vinegar) and electricity to strip the chrome.

    enjoy your ride and to the forum
  11. I wonder it can be luminwelded! its a low temp ally repair solution
  12. here's a handy resource https://macshot.de/rd/brakediscs.html all the patterns you will ever need
  13. rather than mess with spacers and a new calipers etc, i want to see it rideable and then i can redo the swing arm later when i get bored again. just got my gas cap and bung today, so sending off the buck to my tank builder tomorrow and it should be ready in 2 weeks i hope i got my measurements right, i did recheck them 4 times
  14. good idea
  15. nice seat and tail RDog, homemade?
  16. 2 totally different bikes, gladyou found your niche. I would have gone for the FZ meself

    I had my classic Series V Sunbeam Alpine done in Mercedes "dunckle grun" as the BRG stuff in the 80's was too light!

    you were trying to post an image from a website and I think that these are barred from all forums as it may break copyright laws or whatever. try imageshack like Vez says or I use photobucket
  21. i would say you have an inner tube. If the tube is old, i would renew it. I usually change my own tyres as I buy off t'internet M&P do innertubes (expensive P+P if bought on own)as well as ebay. check that the spokes havn't punctured the rim tape inside the wheel. it would also be a good time to check spokes anyway for tightness ( tap with a screwdriver and they should all sound approx the same) drewps
  22. pic would be great mate.
  23. seat is in the background and you can see the damage as white. the battery is a 2.1 amp 12v alarm battery which only needs to power ignition, lamps and charging circuit. chopper boys have used a .8amp cig packet sized battery i their xs650s!
  24. don't take off that pin, its only a pin but is solid in there. In your picture, the first thing i see is the brass washer, pick that out! now re-screw in the brass bit but loosly and give it a little tap and the nozzle should drop down. looks like you'll be busy cleaning that crappy carb
  25. how many "f*ck'n 'ell's" can you utter <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value=" name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>
