bEN's Runner Rebuild

ypur air filter looks nice n clean i see lol

 

it is winter :msn1:



im buying a new one, and have the sponge inside green :w00t:

 

yeq the transcase scoop and the mudguard looks decent still

 

looks fuckin good ben

 

Been an interesting read shame to hear about all the problems, but nice to see iton 1 wheel!, shows there some light at the end of the tunnel! :beer:

 

Riiight not done much for a while, oh i got some smoked indicators to replace the standard ones which were cracked anyway unk:



Apart from that, it was a nice day so i tried to take some decent pictures of my dirty bike.



as usual, click the image for full size.

 

seen the bike in the flesh and its a fuckin nice example of how a runner should look

 

New tyres fitted today, because the weather is shite i haven't had chance to give them a go.

 

NOOOO, not another engine casing?!?!?!

 

^^ exactly.



chemical metal will do the job, something is vibrating badly, sort it.

 

I 'think' it's from one of the first times i put the new transmission case bolts in, i tightened them to much, but i never noticed the crack it was only tonight when cleaning i spotted it.



since then i never over tighten them i just nip them up, im used to doing them really tight from my old bike which didn't have all the bolts for the casing!



if it's been there months, or weeks i think i might just closely monitor it before i start doing any repairs etc.



thanks for the info guys i may be needing it ( i hope not ) :rtfm:

 

drill the end of the crack anyway, it WILL stop it from getting worse.

 

damn after all that work your new casing has cracked and wats paxton saying about your crank

 

hes not bothered i dont think

 

Today my air filter went missing, it either fell off or someone nicked it, which is funny because i checked it yesterday and it was on fine :wtf:



anyways, more money to replace yet more shit. :rtfm:

 

Ouch.

 

shit man your just unlucky , feel for u dude i swear they come with warranty

 

I've rung The scorpion people, the guy on the phone was a nice chap offered to help and 'take a look at it' unfortunatly he wasn't in today so i couldn't take it down.



i've also contacted PSN about it and im waiting on a reply to my email.



oh thanks to mrs TangoSR for posting the contact info, never thought i'd actually need it



my dad has taken it to work tonight where they have some serious welding gear etc.



im still after a replacement, as the spring went missing, and the rubber bungs on the bracket are totally shagged :msn1:



to be fair, i think the scorpion metal bracket is abit naff too.

 

the psn one is suposed to be a good bracket
