I cut of the link support from my OEM swing and welded it to the modern swingarm,
This way I keep the correct linkage and shocker.

Sorry to hear about your shoulder. Broke and dislocated mine end of may. They take forever to mend.
Yes, it’s a bloody shit!

Hi again
I had a pause under some months as I crashed in June braking the left shoulder at three places and the clavicle.
But now I’m back again with this little toy.
The rear sets is at place and at a correct height.

I had to mucho work today and didn't have to much time to spend on the bike.
what I did do is I wrapped the aluminium plate that I cutted out as support for the electrical components and head light with heat shrinking Intercept preservation material.

I recibe the faring and cowl made of glass fibre last Friday.
As I didn't like the shape of cowl I started cutting until I was more how I like it.

Here comes a stupid story:
My head light cover arrived today in good condition from UK, my intelligent brother in law 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 (impossible as I’m bald-headed)!

One cuestión?
What differences is there between the long stroke engine 85-87 with the later one?
The first is marked 59 and the second 80, I suppose it’s about the stroke but are they interchangeable?I have been measuring them and I can’t find any differences!

How did the Karcher high pressure washer perform to lay the paint on?
Nice progress
Better then using the roller:-)
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

Today I spayed the layer of paint on the street plastics .
I just had to fit all parts at the bike to see how it fits.
I’m still waiting for the new racing faring and single seat to arrive,

What swingarm bolts at 87” GSX750R

That’s good news, but the problem is that I my currant project came without any swingarm at all, so I will have to find one, and by the way why not a stiffer and good looking braced unit!
