Re: here is my project
Great thread, especially the painting bits
If you haven't got one here’s the mini DA I use. Really handy, came in a kit with 2” and 3” [50 and 75mm] pads and sanding discs. But fit a sponge pad and it’s ideal for polishing or cutting too. Use a reasonable amount of air, my compressor will keep up but runs pretty much all the time. Similar item http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3-75mm-Air-Mi ... 4d0dfda26d

I have to say this is one of the best value tools I've bought in a long time. I use with course pads for sanding welds, 2000 discs and polishing sponge just for applying polish

The 150/60 BT090 fits ok on the rear of a stock S. Much stickier than a 92

Re: here is my project
Sorry didn't realise it was a KR1
S runs a 140 as stock so the 150 is ok

Re: here is my project
Hi all went out on the beast tonight, adjusted the carb needles, slowed the air down on the hot side, run a lot sweeter, pushed her up to 110 no worries 2 gears to go as well, bit more fettling and a plug chop to see where I'M at. Also the engine sounded a lot less rattle, nicely tweaked, happier KR1 and owner

Re: here is my project
remember : plug chop doesn't tell you much. you can only use it for a certain condition and you need to perform it immediatly.
for example : you want to know if the mains are good, ride with the throttle wide open long enough (20-30sec?), hit the kill switch, stop the bike and check the plugs.
same for needles, but with throttle +/- halp open.
just making a tour of miles and miles and then checking the plugs won't tell you everything is fine, it will only tell you it's last condition before stopping the engine.

Re: here is my project
HI Jan, I know all bearing and that are fine, sounds just like a 2 stroke now, but will do a plug chop got a nice road near here dead straight see for a distance, pretty quiet road to, so I'll get up there Sunday. Just off fishing for a coupe of days, thanks for the tips I'll bring up to speed as and when done. I just don't want to blow it to bits . Cheers
