Michael

WOW. That is a big shout Michael. I don’t know why you say that but I will go with what you say. I had not heard of DOT5.1 until 3 days ago. Great advice.

Thank You

With Thanks to Michael here is a picture of the camp with our area (up to 75) in the blue triangle. To those who went in 2006 it is the field where we had the camp fire

Right guys we’ve made some more progress. We are now in the process of arranging to book to go to Pont de Deulin which is where we had the 1st International meeting. We are going to hire a field at the campsite for our exclusive use. We can also have a bonfire there which is a must for our German brothers with their barbeque griddle . The 😀 .…[Read more]

YAAAAWWWWWWNNNNNN! Dougyt’s put on 2 stones, I am making plans for the 4th International meeting and Michael is making plans for his 60th birthday.

By the way Guys I used Halfrauds own Satin Gloss black paint. For some unknown reason this is resistant to Dot 4 brake fluid. However I have been told that DOT 5.1 fluid is safe with paint so as a double precaution I am going to try that.

Yes Michael I have thought about the sandpaper on the lettering. As you say it will look good but once the paint is broken it leaves the aluminium open to corrosion so I am not sure yet.

Good valid comments Michael about the plastic coated ones. I have been to a shop and bought off the shelf. They are not plastic coated as I have to order those (which I will) and I do not want to stop progress.

<<< Pulls up a chair. This is going to be fun

I will be fitting Goodridge (Hel) lines to both the brakes and the clutch with a ridged section on the clutch leading round the crankcase cover from the master cylinder

The caliper rubbers have cleaned up well are in good working order. I have got refurb kits for the master cylinders

And the master cylinders are too (hydraulic clutch conversion don’t forget)

Being between contracts I am using my time to do a full maintenance and refurb as needed.

Calipers are stripped and repainted

It was a great night mate. We shall have to do it again

Think the Porsche one for me too but the Hi 5 hand slap is good too lol

Hahahahaha

Love it

Bollox!

Ok Ok I will take some tomorrow

Wow so she wasn’t just a fling then. I was on course to build a 750 twin hardtail but have moved that project on to A N Other member to satisfy his desires. What his space . . .

Managed to get a bit more done today. I’ve removed the CSR forks etc, cleaned and greased the Headstock bearings and fitted the refurbed Y1 forks. Twin discs are fitted but I need to get some more screws as these are the fine thread ones. She is starting to look a bit like a bike again.

Well guys just to keep you updated with our trip. We have struggled to find a place in Luxembourg that can accommodate us on the dates we have picked. We have however managed to make contact with Pont de Deulin in Belgium which those of you who went in 2006 should remember.

I am talking with Michael to make the arrangements and hopefully we will…[Read more]

YAK!!! It’s got 4 cylinders lol.

How long ago did you have that?
