I thought that was @boboneleg at first, you two could be twins.

In between rain showers I got the bearings and bushes out of the swing arm. They were in pretty good shape but I have new ones including much higher quality bearings, there is definitely signs of the isolators collapsing, the new setup is significantly different. There are various videos of aligning the motor while fitting the rear axle but having examined it it can only fit one way, there is no left and right alignment other than allowing the rear of the motor to slight shift depending on the front upper and lower alignment mounts, once it is bolted up it will assume a neutral position.

No one from civilisation is called Tyler.

He lives in Spain ............... but don't get involved. In the words of Pete............... he's a cockney w*nker
-
We haven't heard anything from him for a while..... I didn't even know he was American

I am going to pull everything off the old wheel then take it down the arches and get the tyre swapped onto the new wheel by @boboneleg’s American buddy.

At a steady 300mph

So would I if I were you. A flat on a tube out on the road sounds like a ruined day for me.
-
@Six30 will be sorry he missed that.

It is spoked and has a fair bit of corrosion, I really want to go tubeless.

Yesterday evening, me and Sofia visited the Ericeira Custom Festival, it’s on the edge of town so we walked there. It’s the second time it happens, so a pretty young event, but this year it’s already atracting lots of people and the rumble of bikes coming in and out of town is a welcomed novelty for me. Had a nice Burguer, and then the sunset made the light become really pretty pretty a bit. A Dutch tuner was there, with an ST running the 132 engine, tested at 167hp Some painters, airbrush artists, and small bike customizers too. Joaquim Rodrigues’ Dakar helmet The paintwork on this was insane: It was an evening well spent.

The famous 55mpg Busa

While your there you might as well .
-
I’m wondering if I should swap everything over and put the new rear wheel on.
-
Didn’t we used to know someone with a busa?
-
Swing arm is out, pain in the ass it was, it has a bit of rust but it is in great shape for nearly 60k miles, the powder coaters will just need to sand blast it and paint it. It is bloody heavy.
