Please remove yourself from my thread.

I don't think so Davo.. & it aint 'your' thread..

In fact - I painted up that Suzuki T350 in smart blue/white Suzuki racing colours & turned a tidy profit on it.. which I put towards my 1st Mach III.

[F5 Dave]

Spent the day clearing up the shit I'm not going to use from the two bikes. Then starting the piles of bright zinc. Chrome, paint black, paint silver. And the finished stuff. Doesn't look like there is a bikes worth left from two bikes.

Going to make a pile to get soda blasted ready for painting. Need to take one of the engines apart for the cases.

Wheels in components. Will take the shoes to see if I can get them relined with something sticky. One of the old linings had fallen off! Turned the hubs in the lathe with some Emery. Can't hold them well enough to machine round. Might ask at the brake place.

[Grumph]

Drums should only be machined round after the wheels are built...which will need a bigger lathe I suspect.

Most brake places now carry a modern non asbestos "green" lining. It's not bad but the complete brake plate assembly should be machined to drum size minus around .010in when the shoes are relined. Then the usual hand finishing with water/dust slots etc...

Oh, and if they say your shoes are too small dia for their raw sheet, get the pieces cut to size, take them home and bend them to shape with a heat gun....
Then they can bond them on. For some reason they (the trade) won't do it....It has no affect on the linings and is quite safe.

Yeah I took them to Contour, they've been in business for ages, I asked them if they do old bike stuff and he laid his hand down on the hub on the counter and said Yes, yes we do. I could have gone aftermarket but wanted to avoid decades old stock, that fallen off lining in my mind.

That list has a couple of recent entries, oh well I'm sorted now.

I probably should have said but that list is an EBC list so they do them in new componds.
I have always like EBC stuff.
I would be tempted to put in something like a GT185 2ls drum bugger the purists

[F5 Dave]

Well I had a 2LS setup that fits and intended to use, but just realised that it precluded the speedo and there wasn't the room to adapt a drive. So std it is.

[gsxr]

The T90, besides having less power was missing the dual instruments i.e. no tacho if I remember correctly.

You are correct Merv.
The first bike I ever owned (not rode) was a T90 .It cost me $599.00 new in 1973. It had no tacho however my mates T125 stinger did.
From my experience there was very little difference in power between the T90 and the T125 .
However that can only be judged on how young and stupid one was at the time .
Like one has to ask oneself now why the hell at the age of 16 would you ride a T90 from Christchurch to the Hilltop pub for a few jugs and ride home again back over western valley road which was back then a 4 wheel drive goat track.
We were dumb and stupid I suppose.

Looking forward to the pics of finished project

[F5 Dave]

After stewing last night I went and got the drums from the brake guys before they started which I hate doing. But the pay off was $25 ea from the local TSS next day delivery. Ebc/premier should be as good as they can do with economy of scale to die for.

You've actually saved me quite a wedge of money Husa. Thank you.
Don't know why I didn't check the cross over list.

Oh yeah. The horn works. Whoot Whoot! (Or more a dull "paaarp" as was period).

[husaberg]

I just looked and for t125 the spoke set are the same as a GP100 and GP125 (Drum ones)and a A100 21.5 pounds. front
Rear T125 same as Gt185 1973-1977, Suzuki Gs125 83, suzuki Gp125 rear 27 pounds
