you see i was thinking towards a bearing failure aswell but i put new bearings in a few weeks ago?.. all very strange... a new bearing letting go? could happen i suppose.

thank feck for that, you would have been a target for being tarred and feathered if you had damaged the Spondon arm

lol yeah the hate main would have taken me days to get through lol

so take two lol or is that take three. iv lost count..

new swinger and wheel in. just to fit the belly pan and oil change and im good to go...from the spin iv had its shall we say interesting in the lower gears with the shorter wheel base


just incase heres the lovely spondon arm in one bit.









il get a few pics loaded up if the internet stops being a knob

fitted and up and running again.








and a little try out with some girly yellow wheels..

Yellow wheels suit it What that spindle...you have a big bit sticking out on the left side. Whoever made that swingarm up done a good job, and what's that bit on the left Mori can by the strap. Did a bit of shrapnel hit it.

the bit on the can panicked me, iv just checked and its just been a bit of crap cause its blew of now.

the spindle sticky out thingy (technical term) is a spacer i put in to get a spin on it. when i gave rob the frame and bits and bobs i gave him the rear axle instead of the swingarm bolt..doh!!!! so iv to change that back over..

Fabio,

For what it's worth I prefer the look of the braced swinger, however I shuddered when I saw a clip type joining link on your chain.

Please fit a riveted one pronto !

Great to see her back together.

[/quoti actually like the braced one aswell .

oh after the last chain break iv a heavy duty chain with rivet link to go onto it. i just threw that one on to see if alls well before i cut the new chain to length

ok so lets talk turkey then... nobody cares but we all do lol . got a wee email today. actually a few. one was on the dyno and it was heading towards 120 when the clutch cried enough.. id have been happy with that.. so clutch fitted but before the gutted airbox went onto it. its rear wheel ponies 124. something so im thinking as a crank figure i must be looking in around the low 130s?

keeps me happy thats all i can say.

Hey Fabio,

Hell, anyone would be happy with that.

You are one lucky son of a gun.

If I ever win the lottery I will join you with figures like that.

Keep us posted on your adventures please!

Cheers !

im not to up on dyno thingfs but all i read was the pointy line goes up far enough to make it fun

looks good i'd be happy with 124 at the wheel

That's nearly stage one power !!!

Has someone done the bhp with a Shetland pony and not a full size horse

lol... it feels like a big pony.. the jetting and airbox got a lot of work after that was taken cause he said it was running like sh1t? looks dead on but he cant find the last one he done once the airbox snorkel ,jetting K&N and pump got fitted but maybe over winter il take it a run on a dyno just to see. only thing iv changed is fitting the mori cans,either way im not touching however its set up now cause the more i use it the better its feeling.
