    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Just a pre warning you might have a very poor running engine using that pod filter. Many times the Mikuni CV carbs need a certain amount of vacuum signal around the inlet venturi to run correctly. Some guys love pods, other such as myself hate them.
 
Was bored last night and felt like making chips.

The various axles spacers minus their extra material.

Yes, I will probably drill all of my washers too at some point.
 
Sigh...

That is a Rebel 250 chain adjuster. And yeah, the end plates are tack welded on.

POs... :dejection:

The sin is done. The frame. It is cut.


I am totally sick of sulfuric acid, vinegar, zinc, and the million bloody little screws and doo dads that make up a motorcycle. I swear my next "build" will either be new off the showroom floor or I'm just gonna rattlecan the whole thing flat black!
 
Haven't done much lately besides ebay off some of the stock parts.

Did solve my wrong/missing rear axle adjuster problem by machining some new ones and end plate from aluminum stock. They are about half the weight of the original.

Also did break down and buy some cheap Chinese titanium, mostly for the rear unsprung suspension.
