Project broken knee

[Todd5774]

I know Rob, big ole boy!

Where do you all live? I'm in Harleston, Norfolk.

There are two cracking Enduros next month Thetford using the Muntjack track and TBEC are doing Rendlesham. Both will be about a 12 mile lap. Thetford fast and open Rendlesham tighter than a mouses ear.

That's the chappie..

I used to live in Newmarket, now I'm freezing my arse off in Norway!

Well the rebuild is coming on. A few spare parts needed but nothing major just Sump plug, filler plug and a couple of gaskets. My xmas list is shiney Gasgas bits! lol.

looking good, how much was the powder coating

 

[Pepperami]

I had loads of stuff done including a BMX bike in Orange metal flake all for 150.

A little gutted as the seal and bearing kit I bought for the steering head no longer comes with seals WTF how does that work?

 

[Pepperami]

A little more done today. New head race bearings and the front end back on. look out for your front brake mounting bolts guys especially after riding in sand. Mine snapped today

 

[gasgas1999]

Too bad the pics aren't any clearer, it looks as though you've put a ton of effort into details...Looks great!

 

[Pepperami]

The knee isn't too good! seeing the Doc tomorrow so will know more then.
I'm going to get the bike out of the garage today so will try to get better pics. It will be the first time it's seen the light of day in 4 1/2 months!

[Diggs345]

You made a good job of that , be a shame to get it dirty

 

[bowhunter007]

Looks better, and is still SWEEEEET!

 

[Pepperami]

Cheers guys. Can't wait to get it dirty!

 

[Pepperami]

Been given the green light from the Doc

Just waiting on oil filler bolt and sump plug so I can fill her up with oil and a power valve cover so I can put the rad hose back on then fill her up with water. Brake caliper bolts were shot after doing a rather wet REME race down in Hants so replacing them. One final check over which i'm half way through and i'm good to go!
Checked out down my local MX shop today about Asterisk ultra cell knee braces and they offered me a 10% discount thats 60 GBP off, result! No going anywhere without them.

 

[bowhunter007]

Can't wait for a ride report...Both for the bike, and to hear how you're holding up physically.

 

[Pepperami]

Will do Bud in the next couple of weeks.
