Michael

Well it has been a testing time and still is. She is stuck in the garage at the moment on axle stands. As soon as she is freed I will post proper pics

The headlight is back on and most electrics re connected and working fine. I have tried the starter clutch and that appears to also be working fine.

I will need new indicator stems as I cannot fit standard Kawasaki ones anymore on the headlight bolts (they were originally on the bars but I moved them).

Most of the bike is now assembled. I need…[Read more]

It appears your right again Michael. I was of the understanding these were Y LTD wheels but on comparing they appear not to be. I am believing they are Kawasaki as the axles, sprocket carrier, brake hub and discs all fit from my CSR. I do not know which model.

I have modified things and got a setup I am happy with. I just want a second opinion…[Read more]

Nice one Chrislwg. Thought you were going to say it had happened to you Dougyt

I think I might have found the reason as to why the wheel appears to be to the right hand side. I think it is to do with the speedo drive. I have used Y LTD forks, discs, calipers and wheel. I have used a CSR receiver and gear box assembly. It is my guess that they are different.

The part No’s for the CSR are
Receiver – 41064-1006

I am battling on today but I have to keep coming in to warm my hands as its a very cold day out there. So far I have managed to rebuild and fit the calipers, rebuild and fit the master cylinders and refit the switch gear. Everything is becoming a challenge though in its own right. The biggest one at the moment is the front wheel. For some reason…[Read more]

I understand Michael and I agree. It would be nice to meet your son but not in school time. What is his name? He is the next generation of twin lovers.

Will it be another ‘Daddy Weekend’? Are you bringing your son?

Do not tease me Michael lol. I may just ride off all the way home 😀

It is a bit of a secret lol. They are Cast wheels with sheet steel discs bolted on each side. Not my cup of tea (to much like a Hardley made it son) but as you say interestingly different

I am loving this build Michael. I wish I had somewhere I could play on one of these. It looks like a pile of fun

Well not a great deal of progress has been made since my last post as I am trying to locate fine pitch screws. I have changed my DOT5.1 to DOT4 on my travels. Managed to fasten the discs on and also my new headlight bracket. Have put the mudguard on too.

I have a bit more running around to do in the morning but I am hoping to get stuck in later…[Read more]

Finally this

And these

Our Larger brother asked me to show you these

That is very good to know Michael. Thank You. I knew about DOT3 and DOT4 but DOT5 is new to me.
