Guest Rookie Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 ^ yea this, I did it all on sunday. Cert plate should show up this week or maybe early next week with the extra demand created by nats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rookie Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 So turns out they aren't happy with the rear brake pedal, so I will make a new one this week, then I will get my cert plate. Also on the trip to Nats a few things went wrong: Headlight and taillight bulbs blew Taillight housing broke Speedo stopped working Exhaust mounts broke Rear tyre wore out I fixed all except the tyre and the taillight housing, I am looking for replacements as we speak. A gratuitous photo I took at nats. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie Posted May 21, 2013 Author Share Posted May 21, 2013 So everything has been done and I am now waiting for the cert plate to arrive. Â I ended up having to remake the rear brake lever, because the beards in Wellington didn't like the fact it has a butt weld in it, kinda fair enough I guess. So the new one is made out of 3/4" solid, and seems to do the trick nicely. Â Â Also fitted a Dunlop TT100 to the back, it seems like a good tyre, but I had a few issues fitting/getting it fitted. Oh well it is on now. Â I have been thinking about how to fix the proportions of it because something doesn't quite look right, We have all had a gander at it and we think it is the rear guard that is off, so after it is legit I will start messing around with it and see what I can come up with. Â I think something like this might do the trick. Â 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintage Grumble Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Yeh, the little kick in the guard may be whats upsetting the ballance/it needs to be closer to the tyre. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris.QCR Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Yeah a big tire and a tire hugging guard will be the ticket 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bathcollector Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Is the rear guard okay with the WOF and cert guys ?? I was told it had to be back past the rear axle line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie Posted June 6, 2013 Author Share Posted June 6, 2013 Dunno about WOF yet, but the cert guy was more than happy with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
