They never change, when I say chicks I mean university age chicks, which don't really count as woman, just the same as men are still boys until they are about 40.. Recipe for a party for drunk chicks.. * some flatmates * one bedroom/lounge * one terrible quality audio system * one cd of latest chart toppers on repeat/shuffle * several hundred bottles of your finest cheapest wine please * boozed wench's as desired * wardrobes ...
Saturday marked the farewell party for my oldest sister Kelly and husband Daniel. He takes off tomorrow morning and she will be following in a few weeks with the kids once she has crossed the t's and dotted the i's. It makes me a bit sad, my brother is already over there with his partner, they're having their first baby together next month (an aussie niece/nephew !!! nooo), now Kelly is off too, that just leaves me and my other sis here to deal with my parents ...
Part 2 of 2 The finishing 180 grit grinding tool valves installed into the 'jig' head . Finished piston, ready for installation.
Part 1 of 2 Well back in the original update I alluded to the fact that there was quite a difference in weight between the old 44mm 125cc pistons and the new 47mm 142cc pistons. At the time I decided to try the lighter pistons without balancing the entire reciprocating assembly. The results were more than satisfactory with no appreciable difference in vibration. Now that I'm back in my trade I have access to very accurate electronic scales used for colour matching ...
Time for me to beg - I need a hand to make a primary locking tool, to lock the primary drive so I can undo the compensator sprocket and clutch basket. There's an official HD tool for doing this, and it's relatively cheap ($50ish), but there's a 5 week wait for delivery. Fortunately, as well as the official HD service manual, I've been using this step-by-step guide at harleyhog.co.uk and he's got a design for a simple metal bracket that will achieve the same purpose. So I need ...
Finished mounting the engine on Ikasu and she's a she's purring like a pussy. I ended up with the bike drained of her life's juices and upside down on a work bench since my last post. As I started welding mounts in place my mig tip decided to become part of the weld. I also managed to re-run the exhaust as so it now doesn't interfere with the rear break. I'm probably going to change the rear sprocket to much larger one given Kaitohe is apparently quite ...
I had grand plans to get lots done on the bike over the weekend, despite still waiting for the belt. And then work intervened. Managed to fit in a small twiddle tonight, which makes me feel vaguely accomplished. Had a go at fitting the new Jiffy Stand spring, but the new spring doesn't have much stretch, and it was starting to look actually tricky. I've got to take the left side floorboard off anyway when I pull the primary apart, so I'll leave it to then as at that point I should ...
