Gordons Frame Kit.

<< < (2/3) > >>

Robbo:
Does this weaken the frame or make it less stiff?

mick:
Hi Robbo doesn't weaken or stiffen the frame but it does make it a lot easier to work on the top end of your engine, saves having to take it out  ;),

Bitsa if you go on to our sister site in the USA and search for Gordons Frame Kits theres plenty of info on them, Gordon & his machinst pal Charles are going to make some more but i'm not sure how many or how much?



this photo shows you what it looks like fitted, cheers Mick.

Although I intend building my F1 based pro stock bike to replicate what would have been built in the late 70s I do intend to utilise certain more modern components which will enhance  safety , reliability and ease of maintainance  , and this frame mod is definately going to be one of em  :)

the-chauffeur:

Another vote of absolute confidence here.  Frankly, if it hadn't been for this kit, I'd've had to sell the bike by now because of the trouble I've had with head gaskets (see Tips and Tricks) . . .

It makes life so much easier - from top end work like checking the camshaft and oiling and fixing some of the silly top end leaks to engine removal.  Cutting the frame is straightforward enough; fitting the kit requires welding gear. 

I got mine from one of the folks on the US site who ordered a bunch in batches.

kifer:
well done Mick, have never seen it done with kit presume it saves you getting the mig out looks the dogs and makes life so much easier  :) :D ;D
