Loooovely build,that's a work of art.Nice. :rocks
Did you sort your bouncy gauges you never mentioned again,i found a 10/15 thou drilled hole in a blanked adapter dampened enough to be responsive without the bounce. :bng
Nice idea for the chain guide,is it bog std ptfe nylon in black

I just deleted my 30 yr collection of sheep porn :boom and replaced with it your build ImageImageImageImage

Would love to purchase since you now have it on sale,but it would be wasted standing.
This beast needs to be ridden and ridden hard n fast 24/7 not looked at Image

Plus i have a beast of my own that need TLC and thats more than enough to provide satisfaction :l1ck

Bouncy gauge is now kaput :( .(The bourbon tube eventually split a couple of days ago during a high speed fly past :lol: )
It did come with an in line restrictor/damper but the gauge was just sh*t quality (Auto gauge) anyhow so now looking for something of decent quality and glycerine damped.

Chain guide is black Polyethelene.
First one i made on the Wakisaki is showing no sign of wear after ten years use.

Yes! Seen those but they don't do liquid filled smaller that 63mm and can't find anywhere that does so looks like i'll have to risk another none liquid one, but a good Auto Meter one this time and see what happens.

I'm sure I bought my one from Think Automotive in Twickenhan but it does show vac as well which is handy when running a blower when crusing
