Good project Steve.
There's are a couple of rebuild/projects on the site now, makes for good reading after all these years!

 

[Duck00]

And yet another one!

 

[Duck00]

I've done the same thing with using 2 of the oem washers under the cam cover bolts, works well.

 

[Duck00]

That's a good job you're doing Steve.

 

[Duck00]

That's good info cmg

 

[Duck00]

Very inventive MacGyver!

Had the same lip on the A1, I took that off too.
Now have Bear's stacks (short).

 

[Duck00]

Geez that was lucky!

 

[Duck00]

Again, great McGyvering!

Good tip from Ninjayorkie!

I bought the AS3 kit too. I had to reuse one of the oem hoses from I think the radiator overflow to reservoir tank as the AS3 hose was too thick and would push out on the side fairing. You'll find out when you fit them. Otherwise seem to be a good kit.

 

[Duck00]

I think I did.
Worth buying the clamps anyway really

 

[Duck00]

I wonder why the later models didn't have grease nipples?

 

[Duck00]

Yep I thought that too with the hugger, well finished off.

Back in I think 2016 or thereabouts, Australian Design Rules deleted the need to have the rear mudguard / fender extend past a point 45 degrees perpendicular to the rear axle - in other words, not so bloody long!

Taken from ADR42:

• The requirement for the rear mudguard to extend to a 45o angle has been removed in the latest ADR. Reducing the length of the rear mudguard to ADR 42/04 requirements is permitted provided it meets all the following requirements:
• it continues to protect other road users, as far as practicable, against thrown-up stones, mud, ice, snow and water and to reduce for those users, the dangers due to contact with the moving wheels.
• all brake, taillights and the number plate light are positioned in compliance to current ADRs.
• the number plate is visible from 20m within an arc extending 45o to each side and above, and horizontally to the rear.

Having said all that, each state can make it's own interpretation to some degree!

Isn't the law just great!!

 

[Duck00]

Yep, I can agree with that.
You'll have to let me know when you're swinging through my area, never know, may be able to catch up for a short while!

 

[Duck00]

 

[Duck00]

I often envy the British contingent when they have their annual Wales trips, relatively shorter distances for everyone to catch up, not many hundreds of kms/miles!

 

[Duck00]

Your child has exquisite taste!

 

[Duck00]

Haha, excellent!
And congratulations too mate!

 

[Duck00]

Actually, should say congrats to you & your wife/partner!!
I dare say she had something to do with the birth....
