@Tony NitrousNormally I’d say yes to an engine change, but the way things are with Swansea, I can’t be arsed to jump through the hoops and over the obstacles we know they just love to put in the way.

I’ve already got a 750J Dot motor, and two 1127 Teapot motors. Just fancied a barrel/piston upgrade for the 600.

B12 tyre hits the gusset at the front of the arm, Tony. I’ll post some pictures, if I can find them.

Just remembered that early slabby 750s used 29mm flatslides ..... But probably rarer than unicorn poop
Getting quite expensive now, if you can find any!

Normally, I'd say a helicoil, but as we're talking brakes here, I'd opt for Timeserts. Dearer, but in my opinion, a lot safer.

It all depends what you want to do with it. What did the PO do with it? Strip? Go ahead. Fill ya boots. Have fun. Heavy maintenance schedule. Street??? Might be a bit of a handful! Still needs looking after. And, welcome to OSS … we didn’t add you. You added yourself!

Did 'from' mean the same then as it means now? I.e. 'it's going to cost you a lot more than (insert number here)'.
Exactly! From … to whatever the fuck they like!
However much things change, they stay the same!

Aye. Those days are long gone!

Spacer plate. 6mm thick for 10mm offset sprocket. Thicker plate for wider offset sprocket needed. Longer push rod also required to allow for extra room in this case 6mm.
And gear change shaft easy to extend, if needed.

We all have days like that! As they say, ‘The man who never makes a mistake … is the man who hasn’t done fuck all’!
Every day’s a school day!

Yeap your 1st challenge will be getting the studs out
Amen to that! On a par with exhaust studs!

As johnr says, and, when you offer the basket up, and think it's located correctly, put your fingers under it and try to move the oil pump pinion. If the basket's located properly you won't be able to move the pinion more than a tooths click.

yes that's @Strangewayzbike, the most awesome project build on the old site IMO.
Yup! A really talented lad. He'd tackle anything. Built a lovely Kat for a member on the old site too.

Maybe the duct tape was taking up the gap?

Were they anodised from new? And what finish are you aiming for? Are you going to modify it by welding?
Anodised, yes. I’d like to get a clean std. finish. Not shiny. Clive’s chrome powder might be an option, if it’s not too bright?

Anyone had success with ‘tarting up’ a tired Slabbie frame?
Magic potions, household products ect, or specific market solutions?-

I’m sure you’ll be able to ‘modify’ the Sidekick sender for your tank. Once it’s in your hands, you’ll figure it out. And, welcome to OSS.
