Excellent, thanks mate, I'll give them a call tomorrow

I'm after a pair of the washer-shaped dampers for the front engine mounts of my Unitrak... I've found two, but the other two have run away and hid...

And, in further Stuff Bolted On news... http://i1078.photobucket.com/albums/w481/MDMSF/Zed%20-%20the%20longest%20project/20160911_221008.jpg Although the clutch cover has to come back off to fit the clutch, and the ignition cover still needs to come off for the crank seal to be fitted (running Dyna ...

So I'm in the 'cleaning and bolting stuff on' phase, and I've refreshed the front brake master cylinder with new seals, piston etc, but the remote reservoir looks really manky. I read somewhere on the interwebs that you can get rid of the yellowing by soaking them in bleach, and here it is after I d...

They say that the devil is in the details, so I got myself a replacement sidestand bolt in stainless, and gave it a taste of the polishing mop...

Updates may get a little sporadic over the next few weeks as I'm having to pack stuff for a house move, but things will still get done as I need the bike to be in one lump for the move... In the meantime, I popped over to see Keith at Nasty Paint in Birmingham to pick up my finished bodywork. Here's...

Funnily enough, that is exactly what I was looking for in the shed last night! If you could mate, that'd be greatly appreciated!

I'd painted the original cast Mr Turbo plenum a few years ago (ahem), and it was looking rather scruffy, so with the engine now all black, I decided that the plenum could go back to the original finish, so started cleaning it up http://i1078.photobucket.com/albums/w481/MDMSF/Zed%20-%20the%20longest%...

Nine days later and a key arrives from America and...


... it works! Awesome!

Thanks fellas! :D The frame ready for a coat or three of shiny black... http://i1078.photobucket.com/albums/w481/MDMSF/Zed%20-%20the%20longest%20project/20160809_215713.jpg And with that done, it was delicately slipped over the painted engine. http://i1078.photobucket.com/albums/w481/MDMSF/Zed%20-%2...

And then I took the frame to Dave Dunlop at FastByMe turbo systems, so that he could do some welding which would be of far, far better quality and structural integrity than I will ever be able to manage... http://i1078.photobucket.com/albums/w481/MDMSF/Zed%20-%20the%20longest%20project/20160808_1440...

And then proceded to do the same thing for the lower chain run.

Then I got the angle grinder and files out... http://i1078.photobucket.com/albums/w481/MDMSF/Zed%20-%20the%20longest%20project/20160803_201124.jpg And tried out one of the C section pieces for size, before marking it out and cutting it down to suit. http://i1078.photobucket.com/albums/w481/MDMSF/Zed...

Like I said earlier, to get some decent chain clearance I was going to have to notch the inside of the frame rails or give them a twatting with a big hammer. I chose the former, mainly because I didn't want to get too giddy with the hammer and end up breaking things. Again. I'd wrapped masking tape ...

... oh, hang on, yes I did...
