Rainy Season

Post by Mori Man »

It arrived early this year - like three weeks early ! shocking

Mind you two of them I was bed / flat bound with a herniated disc :smt010 and the third just recovering but this week has seen a big improvement all round - still raining though ! :smt005

We do get days of sunshine from time to time which soars the humidity up into the 80+% - now that is sticky vsad

Got to be nearly 2 weeks since been out on the bikes so they have just been sat under their covers collecting dust & spiders :smt012

But it's not all doom and gloom as I get to play with shiney bits indoors :smt003

This GPz9 arm fits the ZXR :smt004 For the H I would need a new axle pin made as this one is 20mm which I think the L uses :smt001 Have seen L arms converted for use on the GPz by cutting out the middle section of the pivot shaft tube shocking

The owner is doing a 17" conversion on his bike so he ordered all this too :smt004

Galespeed Type R , Metalic Black with Quartz coating :smt016 One day the H will dorn a set of these :smt007

Next was getting the front end sorted out :

These allow 43mm front forks - either ZRX11/1200 or Ohlins ( This could also possibly fit my ZRX400 headstock), he went for

With these for fitting radial calipers

There is also a chain roller guide , adjustable torque link and Fr n Rr Sunstar sprockets too. Next will be a rear caliper hanger , just need to know what he wants to fit :smt001

Sometimes it's OK that it rains :smt002

Plus summer is round the corner and this is whats in store at the beach :smt007

Jeez MM that's serious bling! I suppose this particular customer has pockets like the Marianas Trench :smt003

That Sculpture bling was featured in Practical Sportsbikes mag a few months ago fitted to some Zeds. We're talking major filth here, serious private time required to relieve some tension looking at those pics :smt002
