Looks like someone has had an enjoyable spannering session? I just love it when a plan comes together as I’m doing similar jobs to my Mz Skorpion sport now it’s come out of a 4 1/2 deep sleep! I would post pics but it’s still beyond me!

Nice pictures, wish we had that sort of weather and scenery

Gaiters look well

Blimey there’s some money being spent here but what the hell! It’s nice when a plan comes together. I’ve a neighbour who owns a fixtures and fittings company who just makes me up a stainless selection box every so often although I’m just generalising and I know those are fluid bolts on your callipers.

Well explained riceburner

It’s really a strange situation. Without the bike in front of me I really am stumped. Anything else to report this last week?

I can’t put my finger on it so I think it’s a full strip down.

Oh that’s a shame...

The logo? I just got them made from a local vinyl sign maker in Keighley West Yorkshire. I originally was going to use a gold R1150 with a red ‘R’ to finish off but it would have been too many colours if you include the blue, bronze and dark anthracite so I had two sets made, latter one being the ‘a...

I had a similar problem on an old car, I could get the first four feet of exhaust orange in colour and the car floor was so hot it was ready to set on fire! It was an ignition problem if I remember and it was too advanced. Back in the days of condensers and points.

On another note, that minimalist look for the panniers look good,probably hand made

Yes I can’t either!! Obviously I’m biased as it’s mine but cheers for posting those pics as I’m too much of a dino to do it my self on this particular forum!! Wheels to follow in Ice blue when my old friend finishes setting up his new bead blasting shop in Bradford as he’ll need the practice (he’ll ...

That’s well explained! I can see where your coming from.

What you didn’t say was how much the pump robbed you and who supplied it?

RESULT!

In fact ignore that early part of my last post!! Didn’t know you already posted pump info!!

Well I’m glad it’s finally going in the right direction for you. Tell me more in detail regarding replacing the fuel pump? Was it a pig to do? Re-brakes, I’m not a lover of Brembos as I think they aren’t as good a people make out. Can you ‘tune’ those tokicos and make them as nice as when they came ...

As little as 20 seconds sees the down pipes untouchable and it’s not good to run stationary.

And just a steady old... welcome in!

Its should have done at least something even if it’s a pop or a bang. I would possibly try a ‘sniff’ of easy start ether based down the air intake before we go any further.
