Gearbox trouble
I've just un-split the crankcases. After many happy (not) hours degeasin' I finally was ready to glue th ecrank cases back together, Rather than my old faithful (red hermetite) I followed advice from a pal and used Wellseal for a less obvious job. I had torqued down the mains and was just running ar...

Inside final drive casing
Decided to degrease and polish the final drive casing so initially lobbed it into the parts washer like the dimwit I am. Then I thought ... der, should have taken it apart first! :oops: Having removed the perforated cad plated steel bit, I then realised that the foam bit behind had sucked up appox t...

I bought a cheap and nasty Clarke job from machine mart. But I'm not impressed by the degreasing power of the jollup they sell to go in it. Is Jizer any better or just more expensive. I have been getting pissed of with the stuff and have been using gun cleaner which makes my wprkshop and house of rt...

Awesome looking machine. The pipe that comes from the turbo, which looks big enough to lose small children in ... does it have any baffles or is it to be mind numbingly LOUD If so, I think you should make an MP3 and post it on here, so those of us with PCs plugged into hifi amps can appreciate it pr...

Filton near Bristol. Used to be BAC. We had Rolls Royce (aero engines) sort of joined onto the edge of our site. I never quite understood why/how but Bristol Cars were also there as well. Getting stuff cad plated was easy, but there was a greater reluctance to allow bits of bike in the chrome sectio...

I bought a ratty 'arris on e-bay and got a quote to have it stripped, polished and rechromed. There is a chemical strip required to get the cack out before the platers will touch 'em. It was extremely expensive so I wait 'til they resume making new 'arrises. Twas in escess of five hunded swids for t...

Are ultrasonic tanks expensive? Is it something one could make oneself? Can't see any on fleabay that would be anywhere near big enough to take a Zed head. I made a 316 SS diesel tank for my boat, so welding up a bit o stainless isn't too scarey. By puff gloves, do you mean Johnny gloves ? If I don'...
I had always used NGK's in the past as they were the byword for quality plugs in the 80's. When I bought the old gurl she was running like a bag o shite, with the plugs breaking down for a passtime. After following advice on here I tried Denso plugs and though I bought 2 sets the second are still in...
