Ow! and wear rubber gloves to stop grease from fingers *ucking up your hard work.

I use coolblack, try engineering tool firm. Every thing must be clean,,i sand/grit blast and use brake cleaner to de-grease ..cover the parts in Cool black and leave over night. Once black enough remove and wash in deionised water drop in clean oil for and hour or so..Leave to drip dry, buff up. Or i used to use to do Ali stuff to but that used very nasty chemicals that could and WOULD burn you, so i gave it all away. But not difficult to do at home. As long as you a safe place to do away from dickheads. Lyn.

they had an OHC motor but no oil feed to the cam, they lasted about 20,000 miles if the oil was changed every other week.. I know i had to *ucking work on them.

Thanks guys, don't want to be a grump but it still hurts she was my lover and my best mate. I will buck up soon as she told me i had to..Love to all.

And mine, not doing Christmas this year.

Birthday greets Phil, you are a few behind me thou. Best wishes mate...We must meet up this next year as i feel i do not have many left. Did the burn thing with Pat ( the love of my life ) on the 20th am now at a total loss..stay safe Phil. Lyn.

just for info: kept the 80gs box cos it is the same as the 90S box i gave the lad the 90s, so he has a spare..Loads of other spares to. So the 90s should go on for years to come>>>if the Tw*t does not sell it

I used to setup BMW airhead gearboxes i made a setup plate, i ended up doing 10 or 12 for my local dealer..then it got a bit much so i gave them the setting plate. I used to get a credit on my account that kept me in services and a good part of a new Bike. I still have an 80gs box fully rebuilt in the pit in the garage. Too much trouble these days, plus not as much call for real mechanics skills,,,all seems to be plug it in and change stuff. WTF is going to happen when the chips die and there is no body who can repair stuff.

I have a lathe and a milling machine and used to make Yokes and other bits for people...But the cost of Ali is such that it could well be cheaper to get an engineering firm to Lazar cut a top yoke..Just a thought. If you have a good engineering drawing it could workout not too expensive ..and repeatable ... Just looked at my supplier for Ali a lump of Ali 4" wide and 2" thick..( smallest length is 1mt ) is £257.80p Then the drawing and electric even if i did it for cost..See what you are up-against!! bloody inflation ... I am Shaw you will find anther Honda bike with top yoke that would work. Lyn..trying hard to keep my mind off life at the Mo.

Many thanks all...You may not think it but it does help:

Tis a sad day/week My Pat passed away on the 27th of Oct: had a shit week..No idea what to do now.. Sorry guys but she was my sole mate.. Lyn.

You should be: they have lost money ever since they took control. Buy a triumph

I must admit i was waiting for the knock on the door all day..That is the UK now: It costs SO much just to live here in the UK that it would give me a better life in the nic>>>>Free every thing at the tax payers expense::: But then again i am NOT an illegal from a boat across the water so i would not get a hotel...just the Nic. I was thinking the other day: i maybe one of the only one's left of the only real minority in this country:::: White, angle Saxon, hetero sexual, Protestant:: So what group do i belong?
