I’m in office from 08:00-13:00h five days a week, The rest is for family, sport, bikes and friends.. My kids are old enough to manage on their own. It hasn’t been like this always....
sanded down the base coat again with 180 sand paper as it was in terrible condition this afternoon, then base coated again I hope this will be enough to get a nice finish at this old plastics
This morning I sprayed the first layer at the bike this morning and this evening I tested fitting everything and to make new brackets. I will pick up the cylinder head tomorrow from the workshop now with bigger valves... Hopefully I will have the seat with new upholstery finished as well.
This afternoon I picked up the cylinder head and bolted it on.. I still need to give the the head bolts the correct torque.... After dinner I’m gone study the workshop manual
I have been making things on other bikes as I want to precent the three bikes on a show next weekend... At the moment the only one that’s works is the Ducati, but it’s need still new seat upholstery and some paint work..
Far out, some great work there chap! I did a rebuild, almost to stock, of an 85gsxr750, it took a while but turned out mint, won a prize at classic bike show... Will post pics if you are interested. Don't forget to install the airbox before you finish putting engine together! VERY hard to install airbox with engine in frame, don,t ask me how I know..
Hi Laava I'm think this will be a very nice bike to own and a change as it’s has past long time since I had my last four cylinder bike. I won’t use the oem filter box, I have opted for purchasing some velocity stacks and BMC filters, most te for the look and sound. In the pics the bike from a local friend, he isn’t using non filter and it’s sounds great but not to good for the engine
Here comes a stupid story: My new head light cover arrived today in good condition from UK, my intelligent brother in law fuc.... idi..) picked it up an trove it over my hose fence in front of my garage, then my wife came home and run the car over the packet... To be honest I have to laugh about it just not to pull the hair of my head on other hand impossible as I’m bald-headed...
Now I hope you fully understand your responsibilities here, you are going to get us through this confined to home thing , so please don’t finish prematurely, save the best for a bit longer!! Please.
