Honda / Re: Honda - OEM Online parts - Where ?
« on: February 26, 2015, 11:27:11 am »
I use www.motorcyclegoodies.com when I have a bit of stuff to get, they do all the major brands.Not worth it for small orders as freight is obviously dearer but with most items being a third to half the price the savings have been massive. Their lists have been very accurate as far as stock availability and on the one occasion something wasn't available I was refunded for the item, a couple of items there was a wait to get so I had the option to wait or take a refund on those also . I would have loved to have spent this money in Aus but after a lot of shopping around here and os the difference in price is nothing short of ridiculous , some of these orders were placed when the Aus dollar was very strong also so there is no excuse. It simply would have not been viable to restore the bikes I have to the standard I have using Aus dealers, which really is a shame.

Tech Talk / Painted plastics
« on: December 14, 2014, 04:28:54 pm »
Tidying up a bike that has painted number backgrounds. Any tips on how to remove the paint for proper backgrounds? I'm guessing paint stripper would be too harsh on the plastic.

No thanks. Found a new genuine one for similar money, couldn't pass on it. Too cheap and too rare.

Tech Talk / Re: How to tell piston sizes
« on: November 16, 2014, 06:21:42 pm »
The standard bore should be 54mm and will be nicasil so it can't be bored out unless it's been re sleeved. The standard piston was one ring. From my limited understanding there are pros and cons of single vs double rings, but I'll let someone with a better understanding go into that. It is normal to have some cross movement, if unsure get someone in the know to have a look.
