Thanks. It's, just had a look on their website and it state they don't work with lithium batteries so il have to look at a different brand.

I'm looking for a Regulator/rectifier combo for my build to maximise space under the seat.
Is there a preferred model or supplier of unit that is better than others (DS, ricks, electrex,etc)
Also I'm not sure if it makes any difference but I am using a lithium battery.
Thanks
Mike

What's happening with this build, or am I missing it somewhere else? Enjoying the read.
Hi, No youre not missing it anywhere else. I've started on the wiring, i have positioned the starter solenoid and had some power cables made up. Unfortunately thats as far as i have got due to working on my car project and the wife wanting me to do DIY  This is a picture i took a few weeks back when i was having a tidy up in the garage. This was the first time it had touched the floor with its wheels on, and the first time i had sat on it.  Mike

I got the wheels back from the wheel builders today so spent the evening reasembling them and fitting them.  A question, I couldn't see in the manual ( I may be being stupid) the torque spec for the bolt behind the steering stem bolt. Can anyone tell me what the spec is? This one:  Thanks Mike

Thank you Bryan.
I must admit I forgot to order new seals up to this point. Is it possible to re-use them or is it wise to replace them?
Thanks
Mike.

I got the cylinder head installed tonight along with the cam.  I had planned on fitting the rocker cover. When I removed the head I noticed the 6 rubber blanking caps had been installed with some sort of clear sealant. Do they need any sealant fitted or should they just sit in place? Thanks Mike.

No sealant needed, although some people smear the gasket with grease, helps stop it sticking and tearing if you need to do any further work inside.
That's a great tip, thank you.  Mike

A question, I have a new gasket for the clutch cover, do I need to put and hylomar on this gasket or should it be fitted dry?
Thanks

Spent some time over the weekend, getting the forks on and the partially built up engine I'm the frame. I can get on with finishing the engine build off now.   Mike

I started rebuilding the forks today. Got the new seals installed and everything In place but have A question.
What torque should the 8mm Allen head oil lock bolt at the bottom of the fork be tightened to? And should thread lock be used on it?
I did take a look in the factory manual but the bolt descriptions weren't clear to me.
Thanks
Mike
