Hello everybody,
My location is (very close to) Barcelona, Catalunya. I am from The Netherlands and owner since a couple of years of a 500 K0 from England, it was imported. I made a couple of changes, I am sure not everyone agrees on it but it is how I like it. I needed the KM clock instead of miles so that was changed to a K2 set. Then, a Giuliari seat was installed but I prefer original. I prefer the K2 look of the seat, I found a very good one, complete with the document lid etc but needs a new cover. I changed the locking system also to K2 as the original mount plate & lock was not very original neither anymore. Then, I was lucky and found some original exhausts. That made me happy. The open 4-1 is available if anybody is interested. Several other things were changed to make it look nice.
First some pictures how it was a couple of weeks ago. I installed the new exhausts but it was not running good enough. Last year I already did the carbs but now I took the top end complete apart. I had several carb parts plated. I found some new NOS pistons as 1 had a serious problem. New piston rings etc etc. Cilinder head needs some work, 5 or 6 M6 are gone, valve cover has one corner broken. All will be fixed. Now I have a new issue, one of the coils has the ground wire broken and I think the other coil was already fixed sometimes. So, searching for 2 new coils. I need them to be the about 5 to 6 Ohm because of the electronic ignition.
I made some piston plates to make cilinder install easier. I hope it is not giving me too many headaches upon install. Any tips?
At the end a pic of the 4-1 exhaust, very good for a cafe racer. Needs one simple hole below to be closed but that is easy to do. If somebody wants them, let me know.
Also you can see the seat I bought, very good shape, just need a new cover, working on that right now :-)
Well, so much for now :-)
