I have ground and filed the 3/4" swage to 7/16" its now a snug fit and supports the sides of the tube. The 1" swage should measure 25mm but it measures almost 35mm

I am going to do everything in 7/8 on my frames, they will not be trutest copy's, but yes please tell everyone there will be wheels at some stage. It might cut through it, there is tremendous pressure

The pipe I made the red bike out was 27mm with about a 3mm wall. I also filled it with sand. I have noticed with the swages for this bender it has the pipe size cast into them but the pipe is way too lose, I want to bend 7/8" and 1", I will take the swage that is the next size down and machine it so the next size up pipe is a tight fit if you know what I mean? With thees benders you should never expect good results with out modifying the swages or filling the pipe with sand

I have the lone of some TruTest alloy rims I am going to copy and cast, I am thinking I can pretty much make a frame for the cost of the steel and my time, the wheels will cost a bit to make but I already have a few people who want them,

I bought one of thees just now from a guy down the road for $100 brand new unused, I plan to make X4 normal size minibike frames with forks.

LOL it will boil a kettle no problem

I need a bigger pulley on the alternator, its about 4:1 at the moment, its causing the belt to slip and past 12,000 rpm they don't make any more power.

Yes but its much older than the one in this pic^ and dosnt have mismatched pulleys Never use Dennis Carpenter gaskets for fucks sake

it seems to b loosing a spoon full of water every 12 hours, they are comming out and going in the bin and they will be replaced with KLINGER Statite paper.

I got some new water pumps and they came with gaskets, I fitted the gasket with silicon on both sides but water is seeping through the gasket paper and coming out its edge. I thought this is really shitty, its .002" paper and seems to be the asbestos type

I might not be aloud out at night

What about your bubble boot car?

Do you want me to come?

LOL i am about to blow my trousers off with everyone's sarcasm

I saw a red l200 ute the same as your one in Massy, it had a holden v6 in it to

What are you making?

gearing + rimsize + max rpm = just under 30 mph, it gets there very quickly

Thats the one, his name is Mike and he runs Not a motorcycle shop in upperhutt you can find it on face book

I slip cast them in roofing silicon and plaster, its now all in a hole in the driveway,

A friend of mine has a Nzetta witch he has put a KTM SX300 motor in

It was a common thing to do in the 40s 50s, it wouldn't be ideal but if you used the factory single plane manifold it might work well, I copied an original.
