I bought a front one for my 550 from David Silvers, looks pretty good and a good fit.

Did my 550 with a tapered set from All Balls Racing, supplied by Wemoto for £37.
Very easy to fit and no issues.
One I used was AC7408.

I’ve always wondered where do these covers go?
They seem to be as rare as hens teeth, most of the bikes on eBay etc have them missing.
It’s not like they can easily fall off when riding.

Would the earlier K0 fit instead? The lower part of the airbox looks the same.

What about adding a second disk?

From memory, I think the Haynes manual says drop it in with the barrels. When the barrels are 10mm or so from being fully down, guide the end of the blade into its slot.

Is the bottom end of the tensioner sitting properly in its groove in the case?
Very easy to fit it without it sitting in the correct place.

Got a box of old carbs and someone has butchered the float posts on the carbs.
Just wondering if it would be possible to drill and tap the carb body and make a new post on the lathe?
If i drill down into the carb body am I going to hit a passageway?
Has anyone attempted a repair?
One of the bodies, someone has tried to gas weld it by the look of it, the post is melted away to nothing.

I think I have just the number 4 body, I’ll check tomorrow.

This is my modified electric plate bare.
The original rectifier and regulator were burnt out so I welded a plate to hold the solid state rectifier with a bracket in front to hold the fuse box.
It all still fits perfectly under the side cover.

Hi Steve
That looks just about what I want to do could you give us some rough measurements of the size of it please. I take it the starting electrical circuit is 15A on these bikes ?
It’s 40mm wide, 65mm high and 40mm deep.

This is what I did to mine, think the fuse box was from eBay.
My electric plate is heavily modified to allow for a solid state rectifier.

Not tried it myself but look up Butyl tape.
The stuff they use to stick the plastic moisture barriers behind car door panels.
Might work.
