    Good Job

    This is a shameless plug for John Sewell in Petone who has just kindly welded up my Triumph crankcases.

    Repaired a big hole around the output sproket (no, I didn't have the missing bit).
    Fitted a breather (drilled 6 holes, taped 2)
    Drilled and fitted a new layshaft thrust washer pin
    Decked the cases

    All for $85.... (I'll round it up to $100 because even thats too cheap)

    It you need and bike / alloy welding. This man is the MAN....

    Thanks Paul, thats good to know. I have a hole in the crankcase of my Duke 250 single from a previous owner with a wayward chain that needs filling when I get a chance to work on it.

    Graham Berry (Graham Berry race cars, Upper Hutt) did a nice job of repairing my CB750 cases when the chain broke and wrapped around the front sprocket.
    there are some talented people around the Hutt valley.
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.
    those cheap ass bitches can do anything with ductape.

    and they were nice enough to let me use their facilities for nix when I needed to put the new bearings in my triple clamp...
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.
