Flat tracker build in Bedfordshire UK.

Well, I am back....project got pushed back again...COVID....too much work, not enough time etc, but I had a cold stab of reality a while ago,
1, I ain’t getting any younger,
2, Retirement is potentially only a couple of years away...I’d better pull my finger out .......again
Fitted the SRX600 swing arm, but decided the Brembo rear caliper was gonna be a hassle to fit, so purchased an SRX caliper, carrier, and torque arm from a guy in Germany......oh dear, the pistons were so stuck that grease/compressed air wasn’t shifting them, our welder was furloughed so couldn’t heat them up either, so had to set them up in a lathe and bore the f*****s out, I then machined up some pistons out of 15/5 Stainless Steel.
The caliper is off for powdercoat shortly along with the arm and related parts

Well done! Bored out nicely...

Cheers, had a bit of practise over the years

I’ve made a few more bits to replace rusty old shite, it’s a shame my polishing guy has ceased trading,so have to polish my own stuff and I don’t much like polishing.
Oil delivery fitting, and Cam chain adjuster nut and cap...all 15/5 Stainless Steel again.

I know a really good polishing guy if you’re interested?

Thanks, I have a few more bits to make,so I may well be interested

A few more progress pics, the fork bottoms will have to be powder coated to match
Battery/ electrics box almost there.
Rear shocks are Chinese shit, so they are hitting the bin.
