I got some good stuff from halfrauds they advertise it as caliper paint but I done the frame on my gs in it it was spot on
Ahhh actually got some hammerite black somewhere so I'll use that. Nowt wrong with a little colour change
Got a delivery from David Silvers today pretty suprised cause i only ordered them sunday so they came pretty quick Gott exhaust gaskets, stator cover gasket, clutch gasket and exhaust studs.
Me and the missus went out with my brother and a few mates on my birthday and all ended up back at mine with pint glasses lol
Cheers mate, just been for a walk with the dog and stopped off at halfords, picked up some engine degreaser and some high temp silver paint so going to get the outside of engine looking like new in next few days
Right few more things done today, took dog for a walk and stopped at halfords i picked up some high temp silver and some engine degreaser Cleaned up the sump and sprayed that silver same with the end can as it was pretty manky and i managed to get most of the scratches out with some wire drill bits a file and sand paper then sprayed it. Also got the bearings out the wheels ready to take tomorrow. I noticed the fork bottoms had been polished in the past but were very dull so got the autosol out and cleaned one of them up to see what it looks like, i cant make my mind up should i have them polished or rough them up and spray them silver? Sump before And after I did get a before pic of the end can but my memory card in camera keeps saying error , so here is a pic of it cleaned and sprayed Here are the fork bottoms right one i have cleaned up with autosol, what do we think?? I thought there is no point me spraying the engine casings yet i might aswell wait until there together and then mask them up would be easier. Cheers Adam
Was thinking that myself laquer them so dont have to p*ss around polishing all the time lol. Garage? whats one of them last time i checked it was the front room :shades: haha
Top job so far mate, if it turns out anything like the last build it'll be awesome when its done. Fuckin hell your missus must like bikes with all that lot in the house!!
Cheers mate im actually building the other one again, its getting new loom, Graeme France racing programmable hrc mapped cdi, new spark plugs, fuel pump, reg/rec, and a good clean up i already sprayed sub frame on the nc23 aswell. Oh and the missus is a qualified motorbike mechanic aswell so she doesnt mind
Me nooooo never ......................................................................................will post pics when parts arrive hahahahaha
Few pics here for you. I cleaned up my pistons left them soaking in engine desgreaser for 20 mins and have come up like new. Left is before right is after (just realised can see my scar from when i had to have my hand stitched back on lol) This is the spare engine i picked up last night for cheap, checked it over seems alright and turns over by hand perfect Not the best pic but got my cylinders back from re honing, only cost £10 for them doing
