Does anybody have a later model cylinder head (with matching ID numbers/top cover) for sale? I’ve heard tell the late mode cylinder heads had smaller intake ports. Many thanks. Daniel.

Does anybody have surplus to requirement shock mounts/subframe after chopping these off for a hard tail conversion? I’m in the Uk but happy to pay you for your time & shipping of anybody can help? Daniel.

Please bare with me a little with this query gents. As I've eluded to in other posts of late I'm attempting a swingarm swap. So I've taken accurate measurements of my frame and all components in the assembly (barring shims). Between the pivot mounting point on the frame I have 200.89mm...

Good evening gentleman (depending on your time zone of course) I'm sure one of the knowledgeable folks on here have the answers I'm after. I'm undertaking a swingarm swap and space is a premium so I need to design some of the caps that keep the grease in and the dust out. After a little...

Can anybody help me out with the length of the 35mm forks fitted to later models? From centre of axle to top of stanchion? Many thanks. Daniel.

I came across this on Instagram from the profile of a German Flat Track racer. Really interesting design worth sharing and has certainly got me thinking. Daniel,

I recently undertook a little experiment with the help of my polishing guy, with the aim of determining the finish for my frame & swingarm (before coating). I think I mentioned in my build thread that I was considering raw steel with bronze brazed joints? Anyway Gavin quickly knocked up a...

I’m rapidly approaching the process of rebuilding and my engine I’m wanting to show a little/lot of love to the gearbox. I’ve done a lot of research & sourced 3rd & 5th from an XS750 for their stronger dogs and I’d also like to do the work @Ratranger did, namely undercutting of 1st gear dogs...

I’d like to start to rebuilding the bottom end on my engine and I’m after a thread with thorough building process that I can use alongside the various manuals/books that I own. I figure the more resources I have at my disposal the better prepared I will be. Many thanks. Daniel.

Rather boring post gentleman but can anybody illuminate me to the size/length of the bolt identified as #11 in Partzilla’s diagram Many thanks in advance. Daniel.

I'm at the stage of designing my seat pan and in my opinion I've come up with a pretty cool idea of how it attaches and detaches from the frame. Does anybody have any knowledge of solenoids and in particular what it would take to use one to actuate a cable? I've done a tiny bit of research and...

As the title states I’m after the length of tube spacer that goes between the bearings in the rear hub. The shop are having issues with fitment and I suspect this to be the cause. I have a feeling the alloy one I had made is too long. Any help would be appreciated. Daniel.

I'm about to begin the challenge of designing an undertray for my build and I'm struggling a little with battery choice. My bike will be kick only to start and all indicators & lights LED Essentially I would like the smallest and lightest I can feasibly get away with. I'm aware of the...

Did the fixings change over the years or at they same from start to end of production? I’m referring mainly to the valve cover nuts, exhaust nuts… Daniel.

I know this has been discussed from time to time before but I thought I'd go ahead and create a specific thread anyway. So I'm approaching the stage in my build where I'm looking into exhaust design. I'm not looking for styling cues as I'm set on TT style pipes and I'm sure it will come as no...

Can anybody offer up the measurement between the forks? I need to open mine up using a bottle jack as it’s closed up a touch after the welding during the ‘cleaning-up’ process. For some reason 215.0 is stuck in my head. Thanks in advance for any help offered!

So as some of you may have noticed I like a bit of R&D and I've been toying with designing engine mounts for my build for a couple of years now. I think Hugh Ownings did a real nice job and there's not much to be improved upon, certainly not aesthetically, but I would still like to have a go...

Can anybody recommend a good source for Bronze Swingarm Bushings? I emailed MMM and he doesn’t have any? Heiden will be selling the same as MikesXS? I’m sure I read some people have concerns with the depths of the spiral grease groove in some offerings. Shall I just have my own made to...
