    That mean we can expect to see you at Pendine too?
  2. MeanBean49
    I will be there. Got 2 bikes in the competition. :-)
  3. MeanBean49
    Ace. And the rear wheel you had matches the front in the new chassis. Was meant to be.
  4. MeanBean49
    Will be going on the top fairing :-)
  5. MeanBean49
    May divide opinion, but im chuffed to bits with my new colours :-)
  6. MeanBean49
    Very nearly there now. Should be running by end of next weekend.
  7. MeanBean49
    Awesome. And welcome to the inner circle :-)
  8. MeanBean49
    These turned up today. Hopefully they will be outdated in a month or so :-)
  9. MeanBean49

  10. MeanBean49

    So, whos doing the track day? We need to form our own splinter group and all fling poo at the non riding show pony OSS peoples from our side of the fence :-) On a serious note, would be good if we manage to set up in the same area
  12. MeanBean49
    Almost there. Liking the new colours. Will look ace ith new wheels and stickered up. Well chuffed with my mega bright hoses too
  13. MeanBean49
    Track day peoples, i will now be taking my marquee to put my bikes in so I can sleep in my van. Its fairly big so room for another 4-5 bikes should anyone want to pitch up near me and have bike undercover at night time.

    Nope, had a bit of interest when it was on Eblag. Didnt come to much, never bothered advertising again, came in to bit of cash and now i get to keep it :-) Which is nice because I really like it, makes me smile riding it

    I cant wait either. Busy couple of weekends for me. Got this then down to Pendine. Think im going to bring my cafe racer as well as spondon if its wanted for the stand?
  16. MeanBean49
    Now were getting somewhere. :-)
  17. MeanBean49
    Pretty sure short stroke rods are different size big and little ends to 1052 and 1127/57 and busa. Pretty much a no-go idea
  18. MeanBean49
    Getting there now. Hopefully be on some wheels by weekend so i can go get new brake/clutch/turbo oil feed lines made
  19. MeanBean49
    44mm for the big tubes and 38 the smaller. 2.5mm wall thickness on 44mm and 4mm on 38.

    He best read the trackday rules, unless hes got a magic pre production tlr made in 1995. Not allowed even if there was spaces ;-)

    I know. I would be left with that bit still being rusty. And imo it would look shit with the housing not rusty.
  22. MeanBean49
    Keep forgetting. Will remember one day
  23. MeanBean49
    Course i understand how it dismantles, however just getting the exhaust housing done to me is just half a job. Would still leave the cartridge looking the same. And imho look crap. Like i said im not overly interested in taking a perfectly good turbo to bits just to make 1 bit of it more pleasing to someone elses eye. Bike is about functionality over form

    Theres no rebuild kits easily available and very few companies rebuild them. I would not consider leaving the internals fitted whilst it was being blased/coated. And im not going to pay a fortune for one of the few companies who can do it to do a rebuild just for the sake of ashtetics. Should it ever need a rebuild then i may look at coating it whilst its in bits anyway
  25. MeanBean49
    Mines not most turbos, ihi vf series are not easily rebuildable. Im not paying a fortune to send it to the usa to be rebuilt just for the sake of coating the housing.
