Very nice. And I love that tin can silencer Kat.
March 2, 2009 at 1:46 pm #57426RadarModeratorYep, I liked the tin can zorst too! I have now re-fitted the the exhausst to the bike:
The battery is now on charge so I will fire it up later tonight or tomorrow morning. Hopefully then I might join Kat and attempt to stick it through the MOT on Wednesday
March 2, 2009 at 4:51 pm #57427HippoDronesParticipantCool niceone. Good luck with the MoT
March 3, 2009 at 6:51 pm #57428ThumperParticipantI want to hear it fire up now! – get it on http://www.yoursilvertube ASAP
I think you could be starting a new trend there with silver pipes old pal !
Wern’t you temped to spray the engine black while the pies were off – I would not have been able to resit it.
Crossed fingers for the MOT now Radar !
March 3, 2009 at 7:34 pm #57429RadarModeratorGood news: After buying a new battery she fired up after a bit of churning.
Bad news: There are still a few ticky blowing exhaust type noises. I thing most of it is to do with me being cautious when I clamped up the exhaust studs. I can’t make any further progress tonight as I have to go out, but will be on the case tomorrow. Means I can MOT it until the weekend at the earliest now
March 3, 2009 at 9:54 pm #57430HippoDronesParticipantgood to hear she sprang back to life mate
March 4, 2009 at 12:04 pm #57431RadarModeratorUPDATE: Good news!
I have pinched up the exhaust headers a bit more and applied a little exhaust gum on one the welds and it seems fine now! Next step MOT hopefully
March 4, 2009 at 12:20 pm #57432HippoDronesParticipantshweeeeet fingers crossed for her!
March 4, 2009 at 6:53 pm #57433katanaParticipantI’ve got some shiney stainless bolts here for you if you want them?
March 5, 2009 at 1:59 pm #57434RadarModeratorRight fairing back on, had a quick little shakedown run and it seems basically fine. I will go and book an MOT now. Fingers crossed….

I was, but might have the engine out next winter and strip the bike right back. Then again I might sell it to help fund another LC! Who knows!??
