Thanks Charles,
It has your kips pulleys and one of your clutch stars in it.
I will give you a shout after Christmas for another star for my project bike.
Keep in touch and have a great Xmas and New Year!
Cheers
Bernie :)

I feel so sorry for you Brit's having to carry that huge advertising panel at the back called "license plate" :mrgreen:

We' ve been much more lucky :

but about 10 years ago they switched to new slightly bigger plates in white with red numbers. Hope I do not damage or lose mine, as I intend to keep it until the end of my days (license plate is registered to a person, and takes it with him to his next bike)
My ultimate goal is to die young as late as possible !

yes.
that pic is about 10? years old, taken for a bike-mag. I had crashed my bike and destroyed the frame (and a lot more :mrgreen: ) in between the taking of the pctures and the appearence of it in the mag a month later :lol:

I took mine apart again, to take off the radiator fixing brackets, so I could make a set for my mate John Farley, so he can fit the YFZ450 radiator when Martin finishes his 300cc motor for him.

They are your brackets John, all tried and ok.
I will give them a good polishing before I send them to Martin.

That time of the year again, shake down run, check everything for security. While cleaning I notice a small drip of oil on the right hand pipe (under the clutch cover).
Traced it around the front of the cover and up to the oil pump, strangely the spring clip holding the feed pipe onto the pump was loose?
Could have given me a nasty suprise, checked the one on the oil tank end and that is nice and tight.
I will fit something different.
Always useful to check things 😉
