I have done about 60 miles so far, but some issues.

Small oil leak from head gasket area at front left, suspect the worst especially with 836 conversion, may have to invest in frame kit to save having to remove engine :(

Rev counter over reading, compared using electric drill and it was reading off clock, when others were reading 8k, but unfortunately they are the K type ie not green :(  Suspect oil or grease contamination.

Bike broke down, complete loss of electrics, luckily I could coast into convenient lay by :D


15amp fuse had gone black, used a 7amp to get home  8)

Neutral light on all time, ordered new switch from DSS and also a 2.5mm O ring to try, as needed a switch for next project anyway.

Anyone tried the weld less frame kits?

Luckily I have other bikes to use. 8)
