Tony, do you need slim Honda indicators or just a set for the MOT, ive some small black ally ones if they are of any use.

I have no experience with MOT's (there is no MOT in this country for motorbikes ;) ) Give it a go and maybe all is okay and it passes.

No problem. But if you have a decent set of four I really could do with them.

Cheers

Hello pal, no its not. I did start building that one up but managed to pick this one up for less than the cost of the gaskets to put it together and as i was in a rush to get it done a running engine was the way to go.

I havent given up on the other engine tho, i going to strip it further and fit RVF pistons as at the mo it has 3 VFR a 1 RVF piston :o did you have the motor running? i seem to remember you saying it had an overheating problem?

Yes I did have it running and yes it did overheat. Well if I remember I replaced the crank which had three pistons on and I put another on. But don't ask me what was what! I thought you was going to bore it out and do a Rick O on it! Well I know what you mean the engine I have in mine cost £50 and runs really well. So agree cost of a gasket set or engine well need I say more. Good luck with the final product.
