All talking and no doing.....

Not much happened recently except for me fucking up the new needle bearing driving it in to the swingarm Now i gota get the bloody thing back out and try again which for those that have tried its no easy job.

Anyway got a load more bits back from bead blasting,

HRC'd top yoke and sprocket cover


Various bits either going for zinc plating or to be painted


The axle isnt actually being used, i got something a bit more special to replace that

I will have a bit more progress and some more interesting pics to come soon, parts are going for zinc plating tomorrow and in the meantime i shall attack the swingarm again!

I found some more footage of No.9 this time at the TT in 1992

It seems the bike wears black number boards for the TT as opposed to the blue ones used at the southern 100, not sure what i prefer i kinda like the blue.

. Calling first dibs right now if you ever decide to sell it (not that you ever will). Wonder how much it would cost to get copied

Michael has some Ti ones made a while back, a snip at around £800 i think

The tt has always used its own number-board colur system. Dont know why, they just do!

Stick with the blue - thats what it would have been everywhere else.

I am back from the sunny weathers of Tenerife...what did I miss on here, Tony?

Looks lovely Zinc plated parts.

It looks like that '92 RC30 ridden by Mr. McCallen was fitted with side-by-side exhaust system.

[mo haggs]

6 min into the vid ( through the nook) you can clearly see twin sp1 style exhausts

[micpec]

That is correct when I looked at the footage too

[ibby4585]

Sp1 exhausts interesting! Wonder what make they are.

[Drunkn Munky]

Id say they were RLR, reason being on one of the sheets of paper i have for the 400 engine "RLR exhausts" has been scribbled down however in all the footage of the 400 ive watched im pretty certain it wasnt running a RLR system so maybe TS got it confussed with the RC30 when writting that down????
