    I received some stuff from motobins today which reminded me that I forgot to order a rubber bung to cover the timing mark on the engine case.
    If anyone is putting an order in soon & could include one I'd fix them up for it.
    Cheers

    The Nutso Parts Emporium

    I did have a spare. However due to the vagaries of the shelf based filing system (similar to the floor based system....but higher) I cannot lay my hands on it. It may also already be installed on a bike somewhere...

    You can use the RS one at a pinch. That's unlikely to be a mover for a few more months. Talking of which ?

    It was a useful exercise though. I was about to order some other parts & have discovered a secret stash I'd forgotten about.

    Also have one only valve adjustment bolt & nut, if you are still to get those.
    IT'S JUST BETTER WHEN THERE'S TWINS INVOLVED..

    I got 4 new adjuster bolts today along with some unmunted clutch bolts - I must say they were a lovely sight to behold.
    I'mnot in too much of a hurry forthe bung- I'll improvise for now.

    I was bloody tempted to take a pic of Nordies emporium the other day when I was trespassing- unbelievable to think he can actually fit bikes in there.

    This character has a few 2ndhand parts on Tme

    Any oilhead rider wanna do a 21” conversion?

    Just putting the feelers out there - but at some stage I may wanna swap a BMW 21” cross-laced rim for a 19” one.

    Of course we’d have to find someone game enough to respoke them and this wouldn’t happen for a little while yet, but let me know if you’re interested.

    I can't imagine why on earth you would want to do that but GSERS might be interested. He's done one of his bikes already.

    Don’t worry, I haven’t gone mad. Rest assured that the “dirty” bike will still have a 21” front hoop.
