Helló mackó! Segítségül fordíthatna angolra. Tudom, hogy van francia és holland részlegünk, de nincs magyar.

Re: So this happened after hitting a pot hole from hell !!!

12x1.75? are you sure on that, I can find the more common 1.25 coarse and 1.5 fine rod (external thds) and the 1.75 as barrels (internal thds). Do you use both left and right or are they all right hand thread?

Re: So this happened after hitting a pot hole from hell !!!

Was that one of the extreme use hyme joints or an aluminium unit? If the former instead of the latter I would be in fast contact with the place that sold it to you. If the latter I would replace all of them for the steel units. Glad things were as easy as they were, could have been a much worse ...

Re: Billet Turbo's

I have to agree with all the reply's here. If my turbo just 'blew up' I'd be calling the last person that rebuilt it to perform an autopsy to explain why. You have done so many of the sites turbos that if there truly was an issue, it would have manifested itself long before now.

Re: Plastics query

Those are specific to the turbo, no other bike in this genra came factory with full covers. There was a thread on here where a guy was doing reproduction parts and if I remember correctly they were very good. The side panels show up on e-bay every once in a while in fair shape. The belly pan also ...

Re: Cam chain tensioner

I would say do it where it sits, but when putting it back on use a wrench on the crank rotating ever so slightly to ensure all the slack is at the rear of the engine. IE roll the engine on the generator side counterclockwise while tightening the tensioner bolts by hand till the tensioner is seated ...

Re: Board upgrade

I wasn't trying to nit pic and did read that it still needed lipstick and mascara before completion. I didn't realize that the default scheme was basic php though. Changing it over as suggested looks more apropiate. Carry on and keep up the good work. :clap

A new look. I see a basic php board, with blue and white and circles to indicate if any new posts have been made to the base grouping.

Re: Exhaust clamp cracked

Theoretically it should be replaced as you won't get even crush on the gasket. Should be readily available on ebay. Not sure if they are still available new.

Re: Carbon build up and shaft movement

You don't really need to clean the carbon off as it won't affect anything, it is there because the last few rides were to easy, gotta beat on it once in a while to burn off the carbon, but if you do want to clean it out, use a brass bristle brush on the housing external to the turbine wheel, do it ...
