  1. Are the generator and clutch cover the same for both 750 and 1100 ETs. Thank in advance. Merry Christmas.
  2. Try www.d&gchassis.net. May get some ideas from them, good luck.
  3. There are two kinds of clocks on ETs, one has a drawing of a bike and the other has a gear indicator. Am I right in assuming the later of the two is for a 750 and the first for the 1100. Thanks
  4. Is that a track rod end splitter you would use on a car. If it is you should be able to get one from local car discount shop.You could try local engineering shop, most have a small press.
  5. P S He done the ones on me ET, does a good job and reasonable too.
  6. If its just the faces that are worn, you could send them to joy engineering 01279 730682
  7. If you have sussed it, would you like to tell the rest of us. I would like to get mine rechromed.
  8. Thanks for the info everyone, now I know what NOT to look for.
  9. Could anyone tell me what differences they are between the 750/1100 et, besides the engine. Are the fork dia the same,calipers,discs etc. I know the engine mounts are different but not much else.Thanks in advance.
  10. If you want better than original try Steve Smethurst at WWW.ALOH.CO.UK Salford
  11. PS What sort of frame mod.
  12. Hi, thanks for replies, could you tell me what size tyre and wheel you are useing. At the moment I have a 4.5 inch wheel in the arm with out a tyre and everything is ok, but when I put the 5.5 wheel in chain(530) is to close to tyre/frame etc.I know I would have to use an offset eng sprocket not a problem. Thanks.
  13. Good info to be stored for future.
  14. If you built this bike could you tell me how you fitted the rear wheel into the ET swingarm, what clearance is there between tyre/chain etc. Thanks in advance.
  15. I use standard inlet rubbers on my ET head,with 38m flatslides. When you fitt them use red rubber grease, makes them fitt easer.
  16. If you ever have to take the head of for any reason ALWAYS renew the o rings, saves having to bugger about later on,good luck.
