Gary, when I get it in the frame, it will get a proper fettling and set up
Engine is in the frame 40 mins Saturday morning
That bike should fly.
Not sure if it mutters or what is the right way to do it But as input
Over the years I have used some padding around the Boyer box giving it little flexibility against vibrations.
Mostly that type below -- Used for preventing Carpets sliding on floors
I am Using Nylon fishing line to make a small fitting bag.
And then Zip ties for holding it in place as you have in the pictures here
