A local engineer made me new stainless clamps with spring holes and the new bolts, gaskets and springs turned up same time so needless to say I fucking booted it home! She'll be back to full beans this weekend.

Thanks mate, I'll do that.

I went at the system with raceglaze and harpic and turned out well. Ive taken the flanges/clamps to a local engineer down the road to make me some new ones so they'll be a few days and then she'll go back on. Spigots (we'll call them that) turned out ok. One or two have it worse but all solid enough to reuse. Turned out to be the best pissed Eblag purchase I ever made all those years ago. Think I paid like 150 for this system. Only downside so far is the stubby can I have is pharked and I cannot find a slip on for a 63/64mm outlet anywhere. May just get it resleved and repaired as its jetted to this system and sounds lovely.

Gotcha. I was wondering that due to them not being as "available" as I thought.

Cool. I'll get dimensions when I'm back in the cave tomorrow. The more I look at em, I might be alright to still use these as after a clean up they aren't bad, just the flanges/clamps are naff.

Cheers dude. Looking at em they aren't too bad. Just the flanges to replace and I think I'll be alright. Not going to dick about too much.

Hi gents, Hope you're all doing well. In my absence I have recently re-aquired my old b12. The last owner didn't exactly treat her well so I'm striping it to tidy up (and try not to fuck it off and just fit bits to the GSX...) However I cannot for the life of me remember what these buggers are called. The system I believe is an old Micron sprung system which was fitted to a GSXR11 at some point, but these lil bitters need replacing along with the flanges. Any ideas where to get new one's? Any help greatly appreciated. -M

That is lovely!

Yeah? I couldn't find any

Nice! Did you make those?

Very good point! i didn't really consider that. On the plus side, i do have the seat torn down at the moment as im getting the base repaired and touched up and i was thinking about trimming the foam down a bit to lose some of the "square" profile and edges of it. Appreciate that heads up, I overlooked that!

Sorry mate, I'm just being a massive fanny about it! I'll give it a shot in the near future.

Nice one! i may need to borrow the template for the plates!

i thought that might have been the case. Ill keep an eye out to see if i find anything on fleabay.

What an incredible thread to read! Beautiful bike, and that tank! wow!

I'm struggling to find any rearsets for the ET. I have the OEM but i was after something a bit more racey. I've seen a few Tarozzi sets flying about but none of the suppliers seem to be able to confirm they'll fit an ET. Do you lads have any suggestions?

I'd happily take that over the OEM ET front end! haha!

clean up aisle nine! ive done a mess! what a build!

That there is gold right now! I'd give someone else's testicle for a full set up like that right about now!
