Tech Talk / Re: Anyone played with cut aways?
« on: April 02, 2017, 02:57:21 pm »
I just made a holding jig that is mounted to the mill table, tilted the head and zeroed it all in . Did 3 of them in no time and it turned out good . Testing next and see what the difference is now . I will leave the set up on the mill , just in case I have to take off more .

So making the cut away bigger leans it off? I cant use the file , because all three need to be exactly the same . So I guess going to a number 3 from 2.5 will be the go ?

Has anyone experimented with Mikuni slide Cutaways? I use 2.5 at the moment . What would 2.0 or 3.0 do ?

Tech Talk / Plastic restoring question
« on: February 20, 2017, 10:47:22 am »
Normally all my toys have a fiber glass or Metal tank . But finally I get around to restore my 86 race bike . They only made 35 of those bikes (EML Jumbo) and therefore shrouds , side panels and tank are no longer available .They are in top shape , just dull and scratched from wear . The mud guards are Acerbis and will be replaced with new ones . I did hydro blast the tank and side panels and they are Perl white again , but not as smooth as what it was new . I used 1200 wet paper and it got much better . The question now is : Was there a sealer used from new ? Or is there a sealer available now to finish this project off?

Tony , make the spacer with a inside thread , so it can not fall off by mistake . Especially if you are in the pits or in a hurry . I have to do the same on my 998 engines to clear the valves .

Why not make some yourself ? (if you have access to a lathe ) Or even better , convert them to a bladder set up .

You must have used the black ones Momus . I know of the downfalls on them , thats why they got replaced with the brass ones in 2009 . I am doing a new series right now with a couple of improvements .

Tech Talk / Re: Mikuni Question
« on: January 17, 2017, 09:28:00 pm »
I love the Dellortos for the chrome trolleys . They work well there because of of the pumps and many jetting options . But this is a challenge I like to ride out on OEM Mikunis if I can . There will be a way . There must be a way .
