I cut the original lugs off and drilled the back bone then threaded bar to make new lugs

With regard to the angle of the dangle, when I did this on my 550 with an oil boiler, I raised the front of the tank as well to keep the tank level, doing this though you may lose some of the steering lock

what model of GS do you have? with such a small tank i'd imagine either an L or T?

check the wiring going down the side of the headstock, over time the wiring is prone to chaffing so may have rubbed through

totally unnecessary but would pay to see that!!

when i put the b12 front end into my gs i used a slingshot stem, works a treat, no complaints after 5 years

well spotted

im pretty sure most of the oilcooled (not slabby) run the same trigger

Yea, they are compatible, the way to check is to cross reference a few things on JT sprockets.

Yeah same setup, they have the castlated trigger wheel bolted to the middle of the output shaft. I could look at making back plate that would bolt onto the the sprocket like you mention, I don't want too much unnecessary weight over that way as I don't want to bugger the output shaft bearing......it am I over thinking...

I could do that but I'm sticking to more what I know, I won't be running a Speedo healer as such, I'll be using later sv clocks with the bot mod in which you can program to do alsorts aswell as adjust the Speedo output

I still need a way to fix the trigger wheel to the shaft

Or a big enough lathe to fit the bandit motor into.....

I'll leave It a few days before I bug him, let the poor lad heal

That sounds promising, hopefully I'll be able to tapnit to 8mm too

yeah, that's what i meant matey, glad someone is paying attention any good engineer likes a challenge

Shhhhh, engineers still take payments of choccy digestives don't they

That seems far too easy...plus I'll be looking at using a cut away cover so if the glue fails it'll probably Wang me in the head

Afternoon chaps after a great weekend at Donny and a couple of wind down days I'm now back into get the other bike sorted for next year! I have a mk1 BLANDit motor but I'm wanting to use layer Suzuki clocks which use the pickup off the front sprocket. The current output shaft doesn't have an 8mm threaded hole to allow me to perform such a thing so.......do we think that maybe a local engineering firm could do what I request or are cranks made of that annoying metal undrillium?

Oi!!! I resemble that remark

Not long got in myself, luggage is properly mangled but worth it for the weekend we've had, cheers to friends old and new for a cracking weekend, missing you all already!!

Yeah......they melted!!

Nearly ready to depart!! Although just checking insurance and stuff and realised that they hadn't out me on the modified policy this year, and with there being 1 or 2 I'm just getting it sorted... nothing like last minute is there

You got a spare push rod seal...just in case

For the extremely dry noodles I'll be bringing to eat
