CB350F Rusteration
Moorey:
The new one came just after my last post the engine is up and running again now and it looks quite promising. I need to get it registered now and take it for a decent run to burn of all the old crap in the pipes. Quite happy with what I see now out of the headers. :D
royhall:
We need to know? How did you get the collets back on. Sounds promising on the smoke front though.
Moorey:
Quite easy really I used the end off my spring compressor and used a length of timber between that and the frame to compress the springs. A blob of grease on my finger to hold the split collet and just wiped them onto the valve stem, released the spring and Bobs yer uncle.
Moorey:
Booked it in for Mot in the morning. :) Then send the paperwork off to get it registered.
Moorey:
Passed its Mot, front brakes must be terrible to fail because these are shite. hopefully they will get better when the bed in. I had my first ride on it and it goes like a gud un, just doesn't stop like one. I don't like the exhausts they look too low so I will raise the back end of them by a good couple of inches either by bending or cutting and welding as they don't need to clear the wheel spindle with the swing arm having open ends.
Just need a V5 and plate now. :)
