Visited John today to pick up the starter motor which needs a coat of paint. I managed to catch a glimpse of my engine. Heads are built up and the crank cases are coming along nicely.
Rear shock rebuilt by https://racehq.co.uk/ Plating and powder coating by https://www.agbriggchrome.co.uk/ I'm pretty pleased with it.
Very slowly putting stuff back together. Frame and sub frame have for gone powder coating. I'm hoping for a flurry of activity in the next 4weeks.
Good question. I don't know! I left them to dry in my locker at work. (Long story) And I've not had the chance to bring them home yet.
I see that your frame has been overplated at the headstock, did you get this done because of the frame cracking or to prevent it, looks like a decent job and certainly good to be done prior to repaint My 900ss cracked and I repaired with a similar overplating and gusset repair, that was over 10 years ago and I’ve had no problems since Frame looks good in white by the way and a great thread to follow
It’s that question when doing a rebuild do you over plate that area for peace of mind before a crack might appear or leave as is.
