  1. Actually, wont cost you much to have the wheel bored to shrink fit a sleeve either. Could only take a machinist an hour.
  2. You have to machine down any braze anyway so you are better off spending a bit more money and having a new shaft made from scratch. That one looks totally cheesed.
  3. Or use some kinda snorkel system to bring the hoods outlet up into an area of known low pressure.
  4. @Roman please draw a side profile of the car and run it through a virtual wind tunnel/fluid dymanics stuff (Which i know you know how to use) and show us pretty colors to represent pressures at base of windscreen.
  5. Isn't the base of the windscreen a high pressure area? Eg cowl induction hoods actually draw from that area rather than expelling air like you'd think.
  6. Take care. Cheap injectors are known to be pretty shit. I think @Roman had a test rig that could be good insurance?
  7. Hope 2022 is going better for you man. How did you hammer form those headlight ears so perfectly? I can't seven see hammer marks?!
  8. Did the corro loop for the first time.
  9. Fuck tomatoes how the hell does he afford petrol? It's like $60 to fill my bike from empty now.
  10. Got a one piece clutch hub Pulled the body panels off and did the clutch slave seal because that went wees everywhere. Then pulled off the clutch cover. And ya undo those screw things and pull the hat off and you can see the shitty two piece clutch hub. Long story but just know that it's there to give you a light clutch lever, and it increases clamp force as torque is applied to the clutch. Ita a clunky horrible shuddery bunny hoppy piece of crap This is much nicer. And put in some nice red oil. And today did about 200km with @64valiant to visit the guys at garlic masters. Such a good improvement, anyone with a gen 1 or 2 busa should do the one piece hub ASAP!
  11. Man, I have no idea how people use those adjustable hand pieces. I always advised that people try 4t (4 touch, the name makes no sense to me) when learning. This means one button press to start the arc, one button press to extinguish the arc. I found that for me personally it made keeping the correct angle (EG when welding around a pipe) and staying smooth and consistent a whole lot easier. using the dial to control amps takes things too far in the other more difficult direction (just my opinion) Your arms mechanics are not conducive to holding that button down and having smooth wrist control. This is made worse as many newcomers hold down the button too firmly (or the button on cheap handsets is that shit rubber dome that you have to press quite firmly) You can try it yourself with a pen or dildo/whatever (Seriously though, try it), hold a pen and move your wrist and pen around in varying arcs. Then hold the pen but this time push a finger into the side of the pen as if you were holding down the tig button. Often you'll find that the second time will be a whole lot less fluid and often will be a little jerky or shaky in your movement. I can do it right now and my wrist kinda shudders through some angles if im also pressing the button (Though it has recently been broken lol).
  12. Damn that's unusual for one of those, bad luck
  13. farkin hell.. time to make serious changes if thats the case.
  14. Maybe thats because people drink more coke than they should, and eat less apples than they should.
  15. And apples contain cyanide....what's your point.
  16. I know many pro welders that use a dab of stainless when shit gets bubbly.. never even seen a failure coz of it. Never used silicone bronze but looks so damn nice. You'd like stainless stick welding. Super easy and it comes out delicious looking
  17. I had no issues procuring acid. A little surprising but meh... I'm not about to go there it in anyone's face so don't feel guilty. Ps, Kim you provide the rubber gloves and safety glasses. Then after that we can play with acid
  18. Found this photo from when it arrived. Is it what you need?
  19. Pretty sure I have five liters of stuff sitting at work @Kimjon I'll grab it when I go in next. Just 90% or something so will need to figure out dilution.
  20. My KTM had a shit battery when I got it and was sometimes a cunt to start.. used to HATE gas stations. Nothing worse than ppl watching you trying to kick start something like that.
  21. It clearly states the 24v information. Wouldn't do this if it only charged 12v batts.
