My RVF400 - A.K.A MONEYPIT (NOW FINISHED P5 !!)

[Micro Monkey]

No luck with can hangar from rick so am going to fiddle with the pipework and make myself a new adjustable bracket from carbon tommoz. Keep you posted.

i appologise for adding this late due to me working away all week but...... god that is one smart tidy little motor you got there! looks real nice.

Modified the can hangar by making a small carbon bracket that fits to it on the left side. This moves the bracket up 3 cm on the right, so the ends of the cans now sit 3 inches higher because of it (looks much nicer). Only prob is that bracket bolt on the back of the cans caught the hugger and tore the end of the chain guard part. Cut the damage off, filed down and sealed edges with superglue and it is looking new again (Phew!)

.

oh yes ,much much better .

does anyone know does mercury do a full single can system and what sort of prices his stuff goes for atm ?

[Micro Monkey]

I am sure Mercury still make the full single can system and very nice it is too. Pricewise it maybe cheaper than the twinstack which was £580 but am not sure.

Best bet is to contact graham at mercury graham@mercuryraceexhausts.co.uk

[royster81]

this may not be everyones cup of tea but i'm going to fire it at you anyway ,what about colour coding the front indicator housings ?

this might sound shit but some NSR models had white ones on white panels and red ones on the red panels,and since your nose cone is red and the lens dark orange i think they would blend into the panel really well and wouldn't be as noticable as the black ones.

i'll look for a picture of the NSR to show you

and my other road bike where i painted mine red then realised they lounted to a blue area ....EPIC FAIL

[Micro Monkey]

Not too keen on that idea. Coloured indicators date the bike too much. The white works on your castrol bike very well but i think red or blue on your other is a no go but it's a matter of choice.

[Spike16]

i colour coded the indicators and found it makes them look alot smaller than standard black ones, still original look just nicer and tbh i found modern mini indies dont look right on the front of the bike would defintely recomend it

here's a pic of mine

That looks really good mate, can see a lot of time and money has gone into it!
Where abouts did you get the sparco fuel cap from?
Cheers

[Micro Monkey]

The sparco fuel cap came from sparco themselves. Not sure if they make them anymore although it is still pictured on their site. Very very lightweight.
