will post start pics once i am home :oops:

cleaned up my shed and got things sorted ready to start on the frame

only thing that i have done so far before the Nov 1st start date was fit the swing arm, have the seat re covered, pulled the motor apart so i could send the barrels away to get the liners pressed out, test fit some bits and order lots of other bits.
I am doing the polar opposite of the other two entrants, i am doing a build that will take as much cash as i can realistically spend, and make no apologies for it :D

Hahaha, I really should stay away from the interweb, i now have a new shopping list of bits to go with the other engine upgrades
Looking at Yoshi stage 2 cams with yoshi valve springs and retainers (set of Kent SUZ1 cams now up for sale), APE stainless oversize valves and HD cam chain.

looks to be the same set up that SPS classic endurance race team use​​​​​​​ :D

Still on holiday in Cyprus, so no "WORK" done on bike, but still managing to buy bits to add to the build from the web. Found some of the calipers that I sent back for sale on Ebay, excellent condition and half the cost of new ones, also both calipers the same colour which is a bonus 🙂

I know it's not yet a "build" thread for real, I will get round to some work sometime in the very near future ( back from Cyprus on Sat)
In the meantime I have managed to spend lots more dosh and have ordered the Bits from my new shopping list.
now ordered,
Yoshimura st2 cams with yoshi springs and spring retainers.
APE S/steel oversize valves,
APE valve guides,
APE cam chain,
APE adjustable cam sprockets,
Valve stem oil seals,

Looking forward to getting started on the frame, although I am still waiting for the last main order bits to arrive (forks & shock) that I need to allow me to plan the bracing and mounting.

Not heard anything from MGR about my Ohlins, so might give them a buzz to see whats happening on the build front.

looking to drop in to Racefit tomorrow, and deposit my tank with them to get the fillers fitted. might call in to Red6 on the way home for a cuppa and chat

with Mick, rude not too if im passing :)

called into Racefit this afternoon, put order in for full Legend system, twin tank filler (with fitting, breather welding on, plate under tank welding & pingle adapter fitting)*and a Ti paddock stand.

Jon wanted the tank and offered to buy it off me! told him i wanted it modding, he said i was mad.

well every day is a skool day!!

purchased some pads for the P4 calipers, they are listed for both the P4 and GP4-RR calipers, so i assumed they would be ok for both,

Not so!!

when fitted to the GP4 calipers there is a very large gap between pad faces, no problem with fitting 7mm thick discs (Pistabassa's) but

when fitted to the P4's there was only 4mm between pad faces,* couldn't even fit a worn stock thickness disc,

so did some investigation and found out that Brembo do two different thickness of pads, stock fitment are 10mm+,* the other ones are 8mm thickness,

both to fit the same calipers, so i now know i need the 8mm pads for my P4 calipers.

other problem is the compound, so far i have found 3 types mentioned

1) Z01 race wet

2) Z03 Endurance

3) Z04 race

have sent messages to see what the best compound is for fast street riding, waiting now for an answer.*

Continued stripping the motor last night, got it down to the bottom end, then found i didnt have a clutch holding tool to fit the B12 Mk2 clutch!
that too had to be left on the bench unfinished, so i could get one ordered along with the bar i need for the frame bracing.

great to meet everyone there, nice bunch of folk.

Called into see Mick at Red6, had coffee, talked shit, made plans :rock:

managed to do some work on the frame bracing/shock mount today, about time i did something.

will make the shock mounting plate anchor points once i have the bracing welded and swing arm checked for correct alignment.

well happy with the fitment of the shock, like it was made for it :)

will crack on with the rest of the frame bracing later.
