Had 2 days off went to a dog show at the NEC , so today i went up to work to have a few hours on the trailer.<br />
I got some mudguards off Ebay but they were not there so i finished off a bit welding and capped a few holes in the box section and laid on some primer....now what colour to do it????<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gSkQ2wWCOSA/TuUc0HR9eZI/AAAAAAAABzI/myalT5bWfhs/s1600/IMG00500-20111211-1612.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" mda="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gSkQ2wWCOSA/TuUc0HR9eZI/AAAAAAAABzI/myalT5bWfhs/s320/IMG00500-20111211-1612.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
Well it had to be "Bills Bullet" black silver and alloy!!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Sb3aqFeNnnI/TuUdFnz1-EI/AAAAAAAABzQ/EUv3yoj_ODE/s1600/IMG00501-20111211-1656.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" mda="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Sb3aqFeNnnI/TuUdFnz1-EI/AAAAAAAABzQ/EUv3yoj_ODE/s320/IMG00501-20111211-1656.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
And this is it bizzy drying and waiting for my mudguards to arrive.<br />
I will need the trailer to take it to the DVLA to say it has been changed back into a bike from a trike plus it is going to be handy for weekends away in the Lakes,fill the jeep full of camping gear and have the bike on the back.<br />
<br />
OK for my next trick?<br />billhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05616029766931829309noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2708854823393334485.post-72819430817386531582011-12-08T15:01:00.001-08:002011-12-08T15:11:48.773-08:00ready for paint<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

With me not using a front guard i had cables flopping around in the wind and 2 unused guard fixing points,i was going to chop them off but not sure of the internals of the forks i decided to use them for a bar to hold the cables and fill the 2 holes up.Up on the yoke the clutch and brake cables were flopping around so a couple of s/s P clips tied them up.On the other side of the fork is a smaller bar to hold the tax disc and fill the other 2 holes up.<br />billhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05616029766931829309noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2708854823393334485.post-42684673659773027362011-11-13T13:14:00.001-08:002011-11-13T13:22:33.404-08:00So far so good<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Had a bit polish of the case as well and drained the oil out,i will get all the messy bits out of the way before i start bolting on the shiny stuff.Went around with my wee paint brush painting all the nuts under the bike black and a 2 touch ups were i scratched the engine.I was a bit worried how ruff the motor looked being black as the castings are very lumpy,but as bits go on you can not realy see much of the motor anyways.</div>

I find when it comes to painting tanks it is a pain in the ass,you have them balanced on an old thinner tins,you cant do the bottom right and they then to fall off...<br />
<br />
well people here is the FLIPOMATICK 2000...<br />
<br />
I drilled a bit 25mm box then mounted it on a plate passed a bolt thru the tank mount and 25mm box and gave the bottom a good lash of paint..<br />

Mr Qmaster mentioned the worst thing about the number plate is you keep tripping over it,it was the same with the trike,so i decided to hang it as far back as i could<br />

Been putting off doing the rear brake for reason,anyway had a spare hour tonight so i just got stuck into it,lump of 30mm x 8mm steel should do the job.Had to cut and bend the upkick and two little bends along the lenght of it to clear the engine and it fits just nice.The holes are the same size and space as the torque bar on the other side,i still need to find a home for the brake light switch then i think that is just about it,<br />
Just need to pull the engine out again and turn the frame upside down to finish the welding off,fit the number plate a dry build then thats about it i think.<br />billhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05616029766931829309noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2708854823393334485.post-43120423010608746692011-10-25T14:12:00.000-07:002011-10-25T14:12:58.718-07:00Coil<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Had to make a clip to hold the coil,like this it looked massive but when i got the tank on you could not see it,temp mount the flasher unit , it just clears the tank may or may not leave it there.<br />
Had a bit of a stock take tonight and there does not seem to be much left to do<br />billhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05616029766931829309noreply@blogger.com0
