just heard f2 should arrive thurs 30-9- will post pics, i saw a post ref alternate silencers to 4-1 standard plenty of after market sorts ie dunstall replicas gold star etc, does any one know size where silencer clamps on? provided downpipes clear forward controls.
at least garage -workshop looks tidier prep bench space for engine strip -k6- want to find cause of oil block, still cant figure out why she was firing- plugs 3-4 side of blockage yet no spark 1+2 that had plenty of oil. are all the engine covers same k6-f2 swop shiny bits.
when eventually fit f2 most riding done meon valley hampshire well known sunday run road steady 70-80 mph roads i joked about wobbling around on rigid frame seriously its not that bad .
UK Pete:
I think the size is 50mm but i will have a quick measure for you later, the engine covers will all swap over
Bit of luck and you should be back on the road soon maybee before the winter ice

Well here she is arrived today better than i expected imo the 1978 f2 (possible) doner engine for the k6 chop, she,s got mot till April 2012 and seller sent old mots from 1994 at 3621miles with other mots from 2003 till now 7 all showing mileage rising to 5404 she is tidy NOT immaculate but most impressive suprisingly with much relief the engine solid tight and supersport fast when they rev and they do i thought my old gs750 sorry was fast NOT compared with the f2 this is seriously quick off the shelf as it were! i dont think it needs a tune up-so this has confused me even more! (it does,nt take much).
with the condition she,s in the possible mileage and the way she runs and rides and what i paid for her, when i went out today for a spin portsdown hill micks burger van theres allways bikes there-sunny days- old bikes allways bring out the i used to have one of them crowd i expect everyone on this forum gets the same when your out on the bike, 1/2 the people were,nt even born when the f2 came out!
i need to have a serious THINK before i do anything in a hurry ref engine out! also i could never fully use the engines potential in the chop?
head still not of the k6 to find cause of oil block to cam.
