Photos for Phil (Underdog1) of how I made the seat.
The base is 3mm steel, powder coated, with air holed drilled and bolts welded on. Bent to shape at the end to same profile as upswept hoop on bike. A trim of plastic stuck around the edge to stop it cutting into the vinyl covering.
Stuck 2 pieces if 1" foam together with spray glue, drew around the metal base and roughly cut foam to shape with bread knife and then did fine trimming with electric carving knife. Covered foam in a heavy cotton as not sure if foam would hold together after quite a bit of use.
Temporarily stuck foam to seat pan with tape and then made the cover out of vinyl. Heavy duty non stretch for the top and lighter weight with some stretch for the sides.
Put cover on and pulled it as tight as I could, making sure all the seams on the cover were in the right places,and stuck down with tape to hold in place.
Used this metal upholsters fixing strip, which comes with spikes attached but cut and ground the spikes off. Drilled down through the holes in the strip, the vinyl and the steel pan and pop riveted the strip in place, making sure the vinyl was still stretched. Remove tape and cut off excess vinyl.
The last pic shows it in situ but not with the nuts done up yet in the underside if the fixing plate. This is on a work in progress bitsa CB750.

Something defo not quite right there, the slides should be all the way down, bottoming out. Can you post a picture?. Just out of interest, you are screwing the idle screw all the way out, not in?

Bryan also suggests suggests using a drill shank that is less than 1mm. I use Bryans method whenever I bench sync carbs and, touch wood, so far have never had a set of carbs that haven't started the bike first time without making further adjustments.

Knocked this up out of an empty Quality Street tin (plastic). Had to add the logo by hand, otherwise hard to tell the difference from the original, cough, cough!
Replacement is on its way.
You have too much time on your hands ☺☺☺

By 500 miles (after oil / filter change, tappets adjusted etc) I was riding my CB400/4 rebuilt engine 'normally' ie, full throttle, high revs. Mine had new pistons / rings / rebore / head skim /primary and cam chain. + a load of other machine work. But, I didn't have any suspicious noises from the engine.

Cruzinimage piston clearance is 1 thou. But, it has to be rebored to match each piston as the pistons will all measure slightly different.

I got caught on too many occasions by my Mum and Dad doing that with the flat tins of Link Life trying to resurect chains off my old Brit Bikes. It was OK until it boiled over.......what a mess 🙄🙄🙄 [ Guests cannot view attachments ]

Well, hard to weed out the favourites from all those many recommendations 
But thank you to those who took the time.

We have had serious struggles with DSS repro pipes, defo a 2 person job with plenty of swearing but got there in the end. Strange, because the CMSNL repro pipes are easier to fit but I thought they all came from the same manufacturer. Maybe DSS sells CMSNL's rejects.
