Drilled a 5mm hole in the bottom left & tapped it out to m6 for a drain plug for the tank. Also drilled 4 14mm holes in the top of the tank to fit the pipe work, tapped these out to M16x1.5 for the an8 to m16x1.5 adaptors. Spaced them out so there not in line with the shock & more towards the back of the tank will not foul the frame. Sight window hasn't arrived yet but that will be fitted to the right hand side of the tank so when checking the engine oil window I can view the oil catch tank window as well.

GS750 won't fit mate, top is different & the bottom is welded to the yoke.

Bit more done to the oil catch tank. Made a little bracket from aluminium angle that fastens to the back of the engine, the m6 allenhead bolt will be removed ones welded & filled with weld.

No man.

There the same.

Bling bling, got some rainbow titanium sprocket nuts in the post today.

Been thinking about a oil catch/breather tank, decided to fit one behind the engine & in front of the swing arm as there is a bit of space there. Possible going to have 4 fittings to it a window & a draining point. Got some 100x45x3mm aluminium box for the main body, cut a bit of at 200mm & made some ends upto be welded on. That's as far as I have got with it for now as 2 big boxes of cool shit arrived from @eightball_hotrodcheers mate.

This is it @dupersuncusing the 7.5 slabby arm linkage but with a different centre enables you to fit alternative swinging arms with dog bones rather than the dog bones been part of the swinging arm. One on the left is standard & the one on the right is one I hade made by a local engineering company. Had to wait a while for it as it had to be specially hardened, to keep the cost down the company that made it waited until they had a batch of other stuff to send of as well.

Early r1 brace welded on to standard slabby 7.5 slabby arm.

Didn't like the P clip I used to fasten the Rizoma rear brake reservoir to the frame, even asked Gsxrsam about making a billet one. Then had a brain wave after a bottle of corona. Simply is best as usual, so made a little bracket out of some aluminum flat bar to mount it of the back of the r6 brembo master cylinder.

Tack welded the slash cut with stainless wire in my mig. Tryed it for size, all good so welded it up. Cleaned it up a bit then slash cut the end off.

I know people who have run smaller coolers without any problems. But I always try for more cooling.

Next bit is the exhaust, slash cut style or it will be when finished.

Other side.

All 748, 1052, 1127, 1157cc cylinder heads are interchangeable. But you need to do your own engine mathematicals.

Had to turn down the rubbery things about 4mm that fit inside the handle bars to secure the indicators & mirrors.

Then there were two. Got some mirrors with bar end indicators from China delivered for £27.75 as well.

Cheers bud, still a little fine tuning to do on this one.

Nice result, power curve looks great which will make it loads of fun to ride.

That's better, still need to make one for the other side.

Got a couple of little red reservoir pots for the front brake & clutch. Started to make some brackets to mount them directly over the inlet to the master cylinder (no bendy pipes) out of a old r1 swing arm. Not completely happy with these one's so will be remaking them, but you get the idea.

Thanks man, I will take that as a compliment. Got some miniature dyna coils & taylor leads from Mr Upperton. All I have to do now is figure out where exactly I am gonna fit them.

Made 2 little brackets up for the plenum that fasten to the inside of the frame out of some flat steel bar that was kicking about. Hopefully they will stop the plenum from blowing off.
