if you look at the oil cooler ends engine side they swaged on to standard fittings then goodridge on the other end the oil cooler is a 13 row it works out about a ?120 to do it this way for the whole job. the company who do it are called AUTOHOSE. i will get the numder if anyone wants it. i think it is a shit load cheaper than a full goodridge set and looks almost as good.

Congrats BGB, you are on the short list for un-tidiest garage/shed /workshop.
And is that a H**** tank i spy in the background on one of the pics? Although if it is off a Freddie replica, that's ok.

i like the freddie reps, i will get round to finishing it one day. so far it is 1123, gas flowed head ,kent cams, 33 mikuni's ,marvic wheels and yoshi 310 disc's. but just like phil says, it is scattered all over the shed. i am working on four bikes at the moment and the shed is a bomb site (it usually is) i have the attention span of a gold fi.... did i tell you about the hon**** sorry fer

Must admit, I had CB 900 F ( '81) for a while, in 1995 :cry: Not too bad a bike, got it cheap, whacked a Laser pipe on it, ripped all the useless bits of it (indicators, mirrors, rear mudguard, etc) & thrashed it for 6 months. Flogged it for what I paid, with a knackered clutch :|
And on the 7th day... Zeds were created!

I have a soft spot for the CB900 I built a couple of 900 specials during the 90's the last one below had a few Martek bits fitted before the place shut down.

Thanks for the comment. Its a pity Martek went to the wall as they produced some great one off parts towards the end.
