Got the new sprocket on, new chain arrives Monday and just waiting for my  torque wrench back from a mate to finish that little job


rf9rider

Sorted the front fender,  used another Trophy top yoke, drilling the holes further back, happy now with the way it looks.

And finally for today, i replaced the rear undertray, previous owner had cut the back down and  looked terrible, so got another original, unmolested one off Ebay for 99p !  Got a bargain for a change!
Cleaned the backend up a bit before i fitted it

Are you going to reposition the fusebox and chop the sprocket cover? Two jobs I want to do, interested in the different approaches.

I used to have long hair, took acid and went to hip joints. Now I long for hair, take antacid and need a new hip joint

I had thought about the sprocket cover mod, but a lot of work seeing as  probably would do an oil change once a year and sprockets will last maybe two as i don`t do a lot of high mileage, but maybe that will change once it`s finished, maybe a job for the future?
I had thought of moving the fuse box as i can see changing a fuse would be awkward where it is now.
Still got a lot of jobs that need doing first  :lol:

Got the headers off today, cleaned up and sprayed them.


rf9rider

Cleaned up the underside of motor and changed the oil filter

And with the original headers off, i finally got around to trying the 3-1 headers i bought a while ago.
