Went to Donington 7

[clivegto]

Filled up with petrol today then when riding down the road I noticed fuel spilling out from around the filler cap so as I wasn't far from home I went home slowly. Strangely enough all it was were the Allan head bolts were all 1/4 of a turn loose so an easy fix. Bike has been sat outside in the sun for the last 3 days and ride hard yesterday, that's the only thing I can think that's different apart from the UK torques  one way breather.

@Cmassthe Harris turbo setup is all in this thread.

Well I can report back now on the machined down k9 wheel and sprocket carrier with cut down cush drive rubbers as well has stood up to a few thousand miles and other various shenanigans without any damage whatsoever

Can't remember now but think it I took 5mm of the cush drive rubbers, machined both sides of the sprocket carrier and the wheel as well as the bearing spacer, turned thee back sprocket round and used a 525 chain. From memory I gained 8 to 10mm clearance with a 190 tyre.  Pic with 1 standard cush rubber fitted for example. 

[clivegto]

New tyre fitted, gone for a 190/55 17 this time. Pic of cush rubbers fitted to wheel for @jonny1bump

Interesting to see alternative way doing things.

Pie run to butcher up north west of me to scrub the new tyre in. 46psi seems a bit hard round our local roads. Reduced to 38 late in the afternoon (might try it slacker that that) which was loads better for my riding style. 55 tyre is smoother in quick corners but definitely more unstable at high speeds.
