Tech Talk / YZ H rear springs
« on: December 05, 2016, 03:29:53 pm »
I wasnt going to do another run of them , but lately a few orders and interest show that we could take the punt and do one more run . They will be made to suit the original shock , as well as the Promax Hi_low speed . Coils are progressively wound and will cover riders from 85 kg to 115 kg . The material is chrome silicone of course . If you like to secure one for your self , then 50% Deposit is required upfront now. 
Please PM or call . Like I said , this would be very likely the last run of them .

General Discussion / Re: Essential restoration equipment
« on: October 07, 2016, 09:15:27 pm »
Depends on far you want to go . When I started restoring my first Wasp in 1992 I thought buying a blasting cabinet was all I needed . Then I got sick of waiting getting wheels spoked , I built a machine to build wheels and drill rims ( sold 4 more to wheel builders in different states ) . Then came the hydro blaster and I thought that was it . Not for long . I got sick of waiting to have anodizing done , so I thought stuff it and got myself a anodizing , a zinc , nickel and chroming facility . That means I had to get a new shed built to house it all . Just finished that today . As you see it never ends . What is essential and what is not . How long is a piece of string , when do we have enough bikes ? I enjoy doing it , and thats what matters to me .Nothing better than having a beer with a couple of mates drooling over job that was "impossible " at first sight. Just start with what you need and than extend . Every job that you don't outsource is money towards a new tool.

Nathan , you are a Volvo man , I believe . If you could freely choose , would you go for a B22 , 1800 S or a 144?

I think pre90, 95 or pre 2000 for that matter will be short lived . Most of that clientele is only going for that , because its cheaper than current stuff or classic .( A new decal kit and your 95 is just about current ) And when the cheap hacks dry up , they move on . Thats how I see it . In the long run a good Maico , Montesa , Bultaco , KTM or even better a Puch will be the Icon . Just went to a event in NT on the weekend ( thanks for the ride Brent ) and out of 120 bikes there was one (1) H2 . Guess where the crowd gathered and wanted to hear the roar ? Yes prices are dropping for many models , but some will actually rise now . You just have to pick the right one .

Tech Talk / Re: DYO Zinc plating
« on: September 19, 2016, 10:19:19 pm »
Thanks , I am not too concerned about " concealment's", as long as I have a steady supply and kits that will work . What impressed me most , they have hard anodizing kit as well . So I am looking at Zinc , hard chrome and the two type of anodizing kits.Quality and Backup will be the criteria . When we do it , then we will do it right .
