Do you know when it comes to fitting it, i've read something about a lug being cut off the gearbox? can anyone shed any light on this or show some pics??
Draper: Trust me there's lots left to do!!
Cheers guys:thumb:
Woo getting there mate, keep it going.
Oh chuck out the old metal from under the bonnet before it gets knocked into that lovely paint work!

Good stuff mate :)
Did some work on the bike carbs, so as there ready for bolting up to the engine.
- Started off by removing the backing plates held on with 3 SUPER TIGHT cross headed scews
- Next was to remove the float bowls by removing the securing pin

- Followed by the main jets and filters

- Then I drilled out the jets to 1.5mm. (Standard R1 Jet on LEFT, 1.5mm jet on RIGHT)

and then reassembled them making sure everything was nice and clean. I know that the jets are recommended to be drilled out to 1.8mm for a 20xe, however I thought I'd start slightly smaller so as when the car goes to be setup it can have the jets enlarged progressively to achieve the best results
Good work mate, though it looks for too fiddly for my liking! lol
Excellent work as always. You'll more than certainly have yours running before m so look forward to seeing the results!
Have you got any trumpets sorted?
Thanks dude, Its deffinately getting there slowly! lolQuote:

I did make a template last night for the air filter back plate so will need to get the trumpets soon to be able to fasten it on!! I want to use the 'R1' ones (or similar) as there designed to hold the filter back plate on too.

That was a bargain on the the rubbers mate, let me know if you come across some more trumpets ;)
I have an ITG one that I got off Olly a while back, just need to have the backing plate made to match the carbs.
