Gave my bike a service last weekend and re-fitted the stock tail extender and blinkers for the pink slip. My mechanic had said to leave it with him this week and he’d get to it when he could. As I rode it in yesterday, he told his young bloke to inspect it straight away “before this bloke thaws out!” – so I was back on the road in 15 minutes! Next job is to remove the stock tail extender and blinkers again, and re-fit my mountain goat offroad versions!

I pulled the head and barrel of the piglet (XR400), ordered valve guides as there was a fair bit of burnt oil on stems, and trying to line up someone to give the barrel a ‘bore n hone’ +0.5mm from Std

Seems the engine machinists on the central coast have dried up. Called Hypoformance at West Gosford, and yet to hear back. What’s the going rate for a single pot bore and hone? I can ship, just adds to the cost I suppose.

Cheers

Just bought a set of spoke tools so I can swap the NOS rim and spokes onto K8ii’s hub.

Got a compleat front wheel off eVilbay but was a 17 mm axle unit.

Adapting bearings to accept the 20 mm axle wasn’t feasible.

Will be my first wheel build.
