  1. Got some 50mm black nylon bar to remake the bottom frame rail chain protector. Was tricky to pop over the frame but managed it with a little heat, brute force and ignorance.
  2. No not a chance of that. But I think these mirrors will suit the bike and after all it is a Turbo Magnum
  3. £198.99 delivered no bar end weights there extra, going to make my own. Came from ace custom motorcycles.
  4. Went a bit mad the other night and ordered 2 moto gadget mo. View Street mirrors. No glass polished aluminium.
  5. Did look at those, cbr one was close as the jmc arm was originally designed for. This one will work fine with a couple more little tweaks as well as been harder wearing. I have a old combine harvester that has ash and oak chain runs believe it or not.
  6. Bit more bending with the heat gun some chopping and drilling its starting to look like it will do the job. Still needs a bit trimming near the back frame rails.
  7. Might do it like my other Harris but with the nylon Steve.
  8. Well it's sort of close
  9. Not yet bud, more heat gun action & beer
  10. 10mm thick nylon sheet turned up eventually. Cut a 50mm slice of it then started playing around with the heat gun and various quick shift jigs to bend it to shape. Still a bit more work to be done but I recon it will work. If it doesn't I will just bolt some flat bits on top bottom.
  11. I run 14mm id pipe to one way valve to 8mm id pipe then to facet pump mounted under the sump then returning into the top crank case.
  12. Facet oil pump one way valve, start oil pump before starting engine you will hear it clear its self.
  13. As Tony says bottom end can be split with out removing the top end so you best take it to bits for a look see yourself, I would.
  14. Sprocket bearing possibley. Usually it's 2nd and 5th that goes on the dogs.
  15. That's a good point but aparantly fitting later K5 1000 to the early models is a good upgrade or after market items.but this yoshimura K2 1000 system would need a little bit more modification to fit a oil boiler.
  16. Fitted the fuel return & tractor petrol tap to the tank. Also fitted the fuel cap, had to put a slit in the retaining ring to get it inside the tank. It has a Cork seal which is smothered in blue hylomar, also there is no paint round the bolt holes to stop petrol weeping under the paint.
  17. Never seen any dyno figures of before and afterwards with them so who knows.
  18. Possibly but I picked a set of K2 headers up for £25 + they weight nearly nothing.
  19. Don't know, a turbo rebuild shop made my hybrid one up for me after talking to him about the type of power and performance I wanted for my Harris build.
  20. Caliper spacors that came with my hel calipers I used to space the yam calipers out on the K5 forks were narrower than the mounting points which looked odd to me. So I ordered some 25mm billet bar to make some up myself on my little lathe. Looks much better now I think.
  21. Could you put the old bearing shell back in then cut the bar out you welded in and weld another bar in at 90° to the first one to push the overall headstock round again. Just a thought.
