RVF Cam coves powder coated

Got that 'bitten off more than I can chew' feeling tonight.

Made a 'paddock stand' for the font (bike lift plus wood and several load straps to the ceiling hehe)

Taken off; sump, clutch cover, generator cover, water pump, speedo, exhaust system.

My my my there is some gunk under there.

Started de-gunking what's looks like 20 years of sludge (but is probably only a years worth) and run out of paraffin already.

Contemplating popping the parents whilst they are at work to abuse their dishwasher (worked on the car engine so should be fine for these few bits)

Need to get an order together for Rick Oliver, await parts from Japan, oil from over the water and some enthusiasm from the aether.

All on top of a dissertation due next month. Think I may become a recluse over the next 5 weeks.

 

Did you contact dptyres mate

Not yet, been in Uni till late, half day tomorrow so I'll get on it then.
How's you?

 

Belting mate just waiting for some warmer weather to get out on the bike

 

Snap, and waiting to build it for that day. Do like a bimble on a fine dry winters day but think I'll write this one off. So many things to do.

 

Come on now lads dont go off topic and start discussing the weather pmsl

 

So thats what happened to that sex swing that was on Gumtree

 

Super fine soda blasted

(Getting there very very slowly)

 

Ffs now I need do mine

still cleaning overspray

 

Does this mean more carnage in Smudger's kitchen?!?!? :lol:

 

looks like a few chunks of primer left on the cover?? soda is over rated as a media

 

Thats my mate who owns it free powder coating for kev

 

Does look that way but it dust from me storing them badly as I took them home. They were bare aluminum to start, just wanted a nice key on them and to rid all the dirt/grime.

Sprayed one up in wrinkle coat, looks sweet;

 

the crinkle is easy to work with and if it was primer left on the crinkle would of hidden it anyway

 

Is that temp paint? Suitable for the block....

Yeah mate, very high temp, have to enamel undercoat it with 2000'c enamel base coat first

 

Held up in the oven @ 250'c for over and hour. Would do the whole block but it won't fit in my oven :,(

 

Not your usual Sunday roast


All done

 

Done that side but now to refit the swing arm :/

Half the exhaust wrapped now too
