hi, while still waiting for my paintwork to come back from kas. made some exhausts hangers, set the speedo back to zero, and got the seat recovered in black alcantara. was hoping to be finished in time for blue haze day, all good things come to those who wait. :roll:

Dare I ask how you did this without damaging the bezel or casing?? Did you open it up, or simply run it in reverse??
I want to open up one of my speedos to repair a dodgy number dial.

Lovely bike by the way!

Thanks & regards,
James

Ah, yes! I'm sure I'd already seen the topic you referred to - I must have skimmed over that part! :oops:

Thanks & regards,

sounds good gary,
once you have done a few miles on it, we will have to book it on the dyno,
I know I spent some time flowing the cases, and matching the barrels, so would be nice to know
what the bhp at the back wheel would be,
I will come to the dyno with you and bring some tools and diff size jets :)
