Looks good Rex

to the forum Joe For spares, eBay is usually your best bet or put a wanted ad in this forum. need pictures or you don't have one

make sure you get a sold secure gold or silver standard lock. Not all things were made equal www.soldsecure.com

mines the poor state of the roads, especially on unfamiliar b roads where biking is best enjoyed.

so your not on yer tod then looks fun, was camping all weekend

I have a set for the fz600 and like them. you can get short or long versions. If your having trouble with leverage, Id get the long ones. buy them from aliexpress, way cheaper but takes longer to get here http://www.aliexpress.com/af/fz6-brake-lever.html?ltype=wholesale&d=y&origin=n&isViewCP=y&catId=0&initiative_id=SB_20160229131735&SearchText=fz6+brake+lever

Hows the new job going?

heres the thread on slugging with a link to chopper underground on the subject

cool, you seem to be busy. Like that you have a lathe, I'd love one. So whats the plan with the bike?

with the slugs being solid, there will be no "give" in that part of the frame. You may find the frame fracturing where the slug ends inside the tubing. I would still drill the outer frame over the slugs so you can get some weld onto the slug there or you will get movement when the frame flexes

hopefully hollow ones. really needs holes drilled and weld filled too onto the slugs

If your in the area, might be worth nipping down to Bury http://www.eastlancsrailway.org.uk/events-activities/2016/3/classic-bike-rally.aspx Classic Bike Rally - Easter Sunday 27th March 2016 - 10am till 4pm Bury Transport Museum Castlecroft Road, off Bolton Street Bury BL9 0LN

thats because all the wires are the same. in the UK you only need 3, the 4th was for the US perchance of having running daylights. the 4th wire powered a relay when the engine fired up and switched on the lights automatically my rewire thread http://www.xs400.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5934

start a project thread, should be an interesting read I'll help answering any Q's

swapped my 12 string Ovation turtle back for a Sure SM58 mike. Love my Takamine though, not parting with that one

probably saw the other light turn red and just assumed hers changed at the same time

tickets are on eBay now £5.50 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201524740812

Its not the same anymore, just a "musical intro" I'll have to find another suitable link

mines just a dedicated blower, also used in scouts to make a personal hovercraft
