  1. i have powerlites on my escort and they dont have dust seals, I have had them fitted for 6 or 7 years and no issues, new zealand isnt exactly a dusty place
  2. i think im just feeling ok now lol good weekend lol, many giggles and gobbles to be had
  3. Magic bullets are probably pretty bad at taking off paint but they would be good at scratching shit up IMHO
  4. Hahaha, tbh I think rot808 did what you did to a car in the uk recently, only takes a moment to do it wrong
  5. how do i 'embed' this i think is the word?
  6. yeah could easily be done, maybe a duck call would be a suitable bov whistle?
  7. pretty much just open exhaust valve whenever bag has air in it will make bov noises if you want
  8. i did my escort with bundy tubing from these guys. http://www.brassfit.co.nz/ dont know about the other stuff, but bundy is quite hard to work with escpecially with tight bends
  9. that video goes to youtube front page for me
  10. ones I have are 65x95x150 excluding the terminals
  11. we did discuss using the tank as a beer/air holder and the beer would come out at high pressure/all foam
  12. chris, please dont recommend that people cut open and reweld pressure vessels, shit could go so bad and we wouldnt want some amateur reading this and thinking that would be a good idea bike looks awesome though, hopefully those coppers lines are big enough for the flow you want
  13. oh yeah my head was also skimmed which was also in that price + of course taking everything apart and inspecting as head had to be apart for dipping
  14. I had my escort head acid dipped, a crack fixed, new exhaust valves (had to be made) and new valve springs all over + hardened valve top caps for $1000 and it took about a week from memory from lyn rogers. I didnt think the pricing was that bad but maybe others are cheaper. Also, they did call me when they wanted to do something different to what was discussed
  15. tell me total costs of changing to the fancy ignition once you are done. Whats the ecu you are going to use?
  16. really, I have looked at it myself but I cant justify the mass of money it would take vs electronic distributor
  17. what is cost/benefit vs hall effect distributor?
  18. what was the purpose of wasting the distibutor? how do people get ignition signal on k motors without a distributor?
  19. why didnt you change the direct drive? free revving of motors is half the reason for having a velobike
