Bucket bits wanted & services needed

[cotswold]

so what rims will get used in the stock swinger and forks?

Henk will probably set me right but I think it's Suzuki Impulse that just about fit straight in at the back and only a very minor mod for the front caliper ( extra hole )

Front needs different spacers and one disk taken off. Rear needs about 13mm machined off the disk carrier.

I guess 3.5 inch rear 3 inch front would be ideal?

Depends on the slicks. with 125 slicks 2.5 front and 3.5 rear are ideal, half an inch either way isn't anything to sweat over.

The GSXR and Impulse rims aren't perfect but are close enough, you can run the front to the edge, and occasionally ride off the edge, crashing doesn't help lap times a lot. And you'll have a 5 mm chicken strip on the rear.

can't figure out how to stop the crashing bit. But a few minutes with the disk grinder will sort the chicken strips out

I wouldn't go oversize, but undersize 2.15 ft & 3" rear is acceptable if you can't get the 2.5/3.5 set.

Right, my bucket project has only just started and already I am mooching. (http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?s...1636212&type=3) and (http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?s...1636212&type=3)

a) First off, fork seals. They are a little weepy, not spewing all over, but probably should be replace. Anyone have some FXR standard fork seals lying around? know where to source them from without paying agent fees?
(Also, to replace them do I need any special tools?)

b) Tyres. Currently there are horrible warn ones on which will be no fun on the track. What I am after are threaded ones in reasonable condition to fit standard rims.

Ideally you will be on the north shore and I will come pick it up. As always name your preferred currency.

Can't help with treaded tyres but will have some heap third hand slicks available soon.

Henk, I don't mind storing them in the Garage till I get a second set of rims =)

Gigglebutton .. PMing you regarding those. John was great at handing out Advise, but no bought the bike for Tardme from a guy who is feeing to Perth in hope of a better life!

So - Fork seals sorted, Tyres in negotiation

Thanks!

It is debatable and contentious but some people prefer slicks pinched over std FXR rims to road rubber.

Having tried both and from observations I'd go with pinched slicks over anything but the best treaded rubber in the best condition.

Thanks, appreciate it

Henk,

I could only find the adjuster rod it is 310mm long with r/h and l/h threadsa on the ends, if you want it send me your address and I will send it to you, no cost.

Bought some from Olly on the FXR forum but thanks.
If anybody ever needs ant I'd recommend him, turned out of stainless at the lengths you ask for $15 each only thing missing is the nuts, I'll have a couple of LH thread M6 nuts left over in a week or so if anyone needs them. All seems together now so just jetting to sort and should be away with the new engine.

[Gigglebutton]

I blew my rg50 up on the dyno yesterday f*&*K !!!! Probably being a water pump for 5 meetings them sitting around for 6 months didn't help.
Can anyone tell me what the best bearings for the crank are and where I can get them.

Cheers
