Project NC29 spangly bastard!

[tanuki]

Here it is all shimmed up and lovely ( I know looks the same lol)



Shims n bolts n shit...how scarey is it messing with cams now for me



Frame and swinger all cleaned up ready to start rebuilding.



Came up alright....



The only other thing I did today was give the fork lowers a blast over with some black enamel paint, pics tomorrow as they are curing next to the radiator at the moment.
Looking forward to tomorrow as its going to start going back together.

As promised pics of the forks with black lowers....I think they look cool, and yes I masked off the maxton sticker lol.



Right of for some shedery pokery...

[tanuki]

Soooo started with a bit of cleaning...


Then fitted the new sprocket



Then started fitting the dash this is what it looks like from the back with the special tanuki shock absorbing system.


Other than that I laid the loom over the bike and started routing the it also messed about with some of the other electrics, fitted the front wheel and clip ons and had a good tidy.






Tomorrows list of things is fit the brakes, new billet 1/8 throttle, rear brake etc etc.

1/8 turn throttle!? You might as well fitted a switch! I had a 1/7 turn and actually, it was great, but I had real hassles getting used to starting with it - Constantly launching the front. Going to fit it to my NC30 when I put the new engine in.

Looking very nice indeed! I like the Dymag wheels and the throttle. This is going to be fun!

Cheers Steve.

Luke It's the same as the throttle tube I have been using for years so it's all good.

Cool - they are awesome coming out of a corner and getting to full throttle.

More stuff done..

Brakes pads fitted, calipers fitted and all bled up nicely.



Haven't bled the rear but fitted it, had to fit the new rearset for that side aswell...blimey they are high!!



Had a tidy up of all the wiring that will be behind the clocks although it looks a bit like a birds nest its all designed to be disconnected very quickly and it's not had its final tidy as I can't really until I have a running motor in the chassis.


And finally a better pic of the dash with added stickers :)



There may be one other item to go on the dash, I bought a shift light for the KLX but it doesn't seem to like it so I may yet fit it to this.

Not much else I can do until I either get a subframe or the new engine running.

[marcus57]

I have the same rearsets on the oki, when i sat on it yeterday i also thought they were quite high.

Whats the crack with the subframe , thought sie over on pb was making it?

[tanuki]

He is mate....lets just say he's a little less than reliable.

I think the rearsets will be fine will take a little getting used to but then it's going to be whole different bike to what I am used to.
