Hi Bill, I have no idea if this works or not, but when I got a new vance and hines 4 into 1 before I fitted it I sprayed a lot of VHT paint inside it, enough that I am pretty confident it covered everything. Then every time I wash and clean the bike I spray a load of WD40 into the end of the exhaust...

Hi Rob, If you are splitting the crankcase then def. change the camchain, they are cheap and its the fact the engine has to come all apart that makes it expensive to do.

Hi Rob, When I stripped mine took anything I though might need looking at to SEP engineering near Donnington where I had the rebore and a couple of broken fins welding. They were happy to look at all the cam wheels rubber blocks etc and prescribe them healthy or not. I only stripped the top end off ...

Be really carefull if you do need to tighten them, cos the spoke only needs to go through a little bit to puncture the inner tube. I used to check all bolts on the bike each month, check and tighten the chain and check the spokes, just by tapping with a spanner, loose ones will sound different and b...

Hi Bear, Lucky you!! Makes a change to find it as clean as that when you pull the head. I am running 10.25 to 1 1075 cc on my Z1A with no problem at all, thought I may have to use an octane booster but does not seem to be required. The only potential problem is the starter motor struggles a bit, how...
