Steelies Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 men. sorted electrics last night (missing wire and some fool/me connected the batt the wrong way round after charging it) and put temporary clutch cover on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kicker Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Nice work on the rear end, it will provide peace of mind when velocitating at haste. Love old singles, this should be pretty sweet when you're done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seedy Al Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I concure What did your cover end up looking like for the clutch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steelies Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 made a cover that is ugly, shit and i hate it. however - no more clutch bolts nibbling boots i should put up another pic.. have lowered guards, changed/painted black a couple of things next is check fork oil levels and avoid doing leaky seals for a little while.

CaMpylobacter Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 lot sof these ol' bishes run a 30 grade. I'll ring my old boy's mate and ask him. he used to ride this kinda shit like a bawse in the late 50s/early 60s. (around the time we should have all been alive.

CaMpylobacter Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 gave him a ring. lost half an hour. good old joker that's always got a yarn. hah. he used to have one of these! he was like 'oooh I used to have an ariel red hunter' before I even told him what model yours was. would be lol if it was the same one! got a run down of how he came off it at 85mph (apparently it was fairly tweaked) and went through a fence and broke a concrete water trough with the bike. ouch. he confirmed: 30weight monograde. reckons the penrite one is the go. pretty much all old brits run it. win! this shit's cheap which is win for a brit as it's gonna piss it out more than burn it i'll bet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaMpylobacter Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 plz update asep. I'm also in need of seeing this thing cruising. also, need more jokers to learn the art of magnetos and things. sadly there's not enough demand for repairs for them now to get enough practice on them to learn the trade.
