    Stainless Steel Bolt broken off in carb need help to remove.

    You know what? Nevermind. Look, I don't know the other guys, but I know Ray personally. And I consider him a good friend. You could have come over to my house, I have a small machine shop in the garage, & I would have been happy to machine that screw out for nothing. But now....not a chance. Sorry.

    Stainless Steel Bolt broken off in carb need help to remove.

    If the screw has galled in the aluminum carb body, it needs to be machined out. Call up Q&E on Kraemer. I'm sure they can fix you up. (714)630-5720

    Stainless Steel Bolt broken off in carb need help to remove.

    Allright, you're a machinist, so you should be able to get it. (And if you're careful, you won't even have to strip the rack) Set up the carbs on a milling machine & center the spindle over the broken screw. If your eyes are good, you can get it within .005-.010 thou. Start with a .125"...

    Hi Glen, Sorry, already sold the swing arm. All I have left is the forks, yokes, bars, front wheel w/rotors & axle. Plus front & rear calipers and the rear brake stay arm. How's your Katana coming along? Greg

    Engine Guard Fitting - frame type

    I seem to remember someone had one on their bike. But strangely, the front fender got caught on it. Oops, can't turn the bars..

    rear wheel stand.... ??????

    You'll still need to hold the bike upright while putting it on the rear stand. But you can balance the bike with one hand, from the back. Align the stand with the other hand. Once you get it roughly positioned, lever up the rear & Bob's your uncle.

    No, lean = not enough fuel. Jets (main & pilot), are in the float bowl.

    I think it's the fact that you pipes are blue all the way back to the collector.

    Beer can - Cam caps

    Ahh, I thought they looked awfully nice for lost foam. I see now you are doing it the proper way. Don't get me wrong, the foam molding has it's place & uses. But good ramming yields a better result!

    Oil Cooler Addition

    Unbolted the oil cooler to take some unobstructed photos of the bracket. I machined a shallow pocket on the backside to clear the strap welded to the frame. It is pretty thin in that area. Also, if you notice, the extra holes next to the bolts that mount the bracket to the frame. I had...

    Nice. Are you using lost wax, or lost foam for your molds? It would be cool to see some photos of your process.

    Oil Cooler Addition

    Some photos of an 1150 oil cooler on my 1100ES. 1100 frame showing the horn mounting holes, & the small strap welded to the cross brace. This is to stop the horn brackets from twisting when they are bolted on. BUT, this is where you need to mount the cooler, so the horns need to be relocated...

    Updgardinr 1100ES Brakes

    Thanks everyone:) Now, some more photos....... First I bolted the two halves together & gripped them in the lathe. Boring the ID. Internal groove. Taa Daa! Next I machined a spud to flip the parts & machine the second side. Dust seal groove. There you have it. Clamps for the fork brace...

    Carbtune and Sync Questions

    Adjust the idle up to 2000-2500 RPM with the adjuster screw when doing the actual sync. After you are done, adjust idle back down to factory spec. Floats heights set properly?

    On to the Fork Brace On to the Fork Brace A few more fun photos. Enjoy. I forgot my camera when I machined the main clamp, but this is how they turned out. Counter boring & drilling the bolt holes. Sawing the clamp in half. Mostly done. After I tap the holes, I'll bolt the halves...

    Test fitting Test fitting A bit overkill, perhaps, but it makes me feel better. Pretty happy with how they turned out. (At least the second time. Sometimes you gotta start cutting to see how it all goes together) I neglected to take photos while I was making these, but oh well. And yes, I...
