Great. I have now remembered why I liked the Pantah so much when they first came out in 1980.


Little ride out today accompanying a 1959 Velocette.

 

Stunning

 

The MHR has been sitting for a while waiting for some bits to come back from paint.

Picked them up the other day, stoked to be able to put the old girl back together and get out on her again .

 

Cleaned up the front brake

 

Clean, clean & thrice I say clean !

Great work. Please keep ‘em coming!

Where are the high comp pistons from?

 

Medinaitalia I think

 

Actual CR is 9.2

 

Some lovely work going on there - what valve guide seals are you using? Internal 'O' rings or external 'top hat' ones?

I've heard the bevel drives in the crankcase can be a pig to shim up correctly... adjusting one can change the settings of the others.

 

Re building this engine is far beyond my skill set. All the work is being done by Craig Ridgley of CMR Racing

 

See his face book page for “Before “photos

 

Where's the 'drooling' emoji when you need it?

 

Lovely - see... Ducatis are yellow & not red...
