What I did today...

[Phat3R]

Check the clearance for wheel rub on the GP lifters. I had to modify mine to work but they're a dream when sorted.
Axle comes out, wheel stays right where it is.

Yes I looked at that a while ago. From memory the tolerances to sprocket nuts waz quite tight.

So far I haz been too girly to drill and tap the swing arm. Still trying to work out how to hold the bike still during the drilling operation. Don't really want to take the swing arm off. Securing from the rafters is my current bestest idea.

I just jacked the back of the bike up and went in from underneath dude

Took delivery of some 2nd hand bits n peices. Turned off the computer and started some real work

Good stuff!! Love the big fibreglass kit

[Turbo]

What are we looking at, Plumb?

[Ruckos87]

What are we looking at, Plumb?

The front of the bike is the OEM upper front bracket that's smashed, and the clutch lever and left clipon that are pretty well rooted.
The 2nd photo is my bits n peices got them 2 nd hand off a blood in vic. Wood craft Cilpons, front race stay bracket OEM bread pads ( thrown in) and he's posting the OEM levers, as he forgot to pack them. $350 for the lot.
The fibreglass kit it to repair the fairings all in all they held up extremely well I'm just going to re glass the inside and strengthen around the fixing points where a few pulled through. Was thinking about just glassing in some sheet metal ot possibly a washer????

Apart from that I need to straighten the rear bolt on sub frame ( I think that's what it's called ) it's pretty soft alloy and replace a few bits on the clutch side vortex rear sets.
I'll do a service while its apart, then hopefully good to go, around the same time as my elbow hopefully

Nondescript is apparently ideal for abductions - "It was a white van - officer". No one can hear you scream in the back of a Vito!

The thing really pulls amazed at what that 2.1 DT can do with all the gear in the back ... acceleration to 100 kph is effortless for freeway merging.

Hahaha, good plan! Less likely people are gonna break in than if you've got race related "I've got expensive things in me" vinyl on the outside!

Absolutely. Got to keep it looking as inconspicuous as possible especially if you don't have off street parking.

This!! ^^^

[Phat3R]

Yeah that x'd my mind a lot!!! And only took 12 hours and first requests came in. Nope ... this Vito only moves motorcycles ...

But my backup trick is ... it's an old van, the turbo's blown, the batteries flat, etc ... if you could just pay for the service ... "beep, beep, beep" ... "hello any one there" ???

[dan]

Once you get the wheel locks and everything PERMANENTLY installed it just won't be able to fit boxes and wardrobes!

I'm loving mine! Whilst mines not a litre bike, the cam of yours should also make sure that it's not snatchy in the range it's likely to ping you off..

[Marshy]

And you're a "C" grader

New loom worked. Easier to just swap the whole thing than work out which wire was faulty. If the rad holds water, it'll be out tomorrow

[stevem]

Might have to get a loom for the CBR
