That old Seeley finally lives

(1/4) > >>

Eyeguy:
MOT'd last week, massively oversized CR31's just about jetted to the point of usability and absolutely flies! The motor is a tad smoky, I think the stem seals have gone hard, it wasn't used for years, but it seems to be getting better. They'll probably need doing at some point, but for now its just ride the arse off the thing!

UK Pete:
Fantastic bike paul, perfect weather for riding it as well, does the engine have to come out to remove the head on the seeley?, or can you do it in situ

Eyeguy:
In the frame, I think, Pete, unlike a Dresda.  Interestingly, I've just had a message from an ex racer mate who told me that they often left the valve stem seals off race motors to improve cooling, and weren't concerned about a bit of oil in the exhaust gases. Hmm, the motor is supposedly full of yoshimura bits, but who knows?
