the new - what have you done to your ped today thread.

Went out today for about half hour before the ped gets the new rollers and belt fitted.


Ooppss

 

thats a pretty clean "snap"

remember its 3 points....

 

This is the third one!!

I think I am going to find a new mount for the number plate and have a sticker on the back mudguard because I am sick of buying new ones lol, I just drilled 2 holes in the snapped one and put it back on so no 3 points...

 

thinking about swapping mine for a Gilera H@K, i want gears and a supermoto so bad, so im very tempted

 

packing exhaust mufflers tonight. got to get the noise down to acceptable levels. The worst job in the world.........

 

Keep going bro!

 

did a little more sanding today but not getting far. got distracted today.
got a phone call that went something like this -
"alrite mate, im selling my BMW F650 for £900 without tax and mot if your interested"

went and had a look, had my stepdad go over and test ride it. all good. so guess who has a BMW F650 ive got to do a little bit of cosmetic work (having it proffesionally painted) and im installing some extras but ive got one of my all time favourite bikes and only paid £790 in the end now to pass my test, have it restricted, get some leathers. go and ride

 

Your stepdad sounds pretty cool ! good job.

 

Just finished the silencer for GF's scoot. Sounds a little better - but this Doppler (MVT) ignition is a beast. the thing goes from tickover to 'warp speed' in about a nanosecond. it kind of stops you puttering gently past.
If you have a sport pro and a yas R and you have the cash, try it.

 

Yeah. He was pretty excited when i told him what i was looking at. Were BMW mad in this house. He knows hell be riding it before i can too lol

 

got bored and cleaned the Stage 6 sport pro for the weekend. Quick hone and all ready. Now..... Y as R or C16....... Hmmmmmm
I think it's the 16 boys!
Also, my new (second hand) crank case is on it's way- as is the order I placed yonks ago for some clutch springs (Polini G2). So it should be a good weekend!

 

Got my Polini clutch springs, some 10 & 12 mm piston clips and some reed box gaskets. Second hand admission pipe also arrived - so I can have a go at the frontal admission on the Malossi Team 2 with less wedge under the reed box -
Spare crank case is on it's way -
Weekend is looking good for Sport pro/C16 set up !
Kitted out for summer !

 

my mc3 wheels are going to be finished at the powdercoaters tonight

 

just got a picture of the rear mc3 wheel, i think im in love

 

Looking fresh

 

Sexy !

 

Took the ped to the garage for somethings replaced, fair to say I got caught in the rain and look like a drowned rat.

 

Second hand crank case arrived today - in perfect condition as far as I can tell at the mo. No screwed threads, completely unadulterated -
Stock crank (which looks like it would snap in a stiff breeze), Stock transmission, stock corrector & clutch, a nice working oil pump (something to think about for my GF next time I have her cylinder off) - a starter motor & all the bits (I think I have like four of those now - first useless piece of junk I remove from a motor generally.....) four cylinder rods in good nick and a clutch bell.
So when I have the time and the energy, I'll think about flowing it and maybe having it machined for a 44 stroke crank.........
In the mean time - we are busy this weekend with the Sport Pro - and that will do for the moment !

 

Done the mc3 rear wheel, had to get a new tyre cause the bead on the old one was f*cked and didnt realise it had an innertube, so i ran over to the bike shop and got an avon to match the front. Got the right size now doing the front one tomorrow and then i think im putting it up for sale

 

sub! how can you do this!?! A scooter is for life. Not just for Christmas.
