say it's not true
« on: July 26, 2008, 05:42:29 PM »
go to install the ignition advance in the 650 and find it has become a rusty piece of junk due to a leak in the garage roof. to make matters worse I should have a spare but can't find it.
 note to diary..... fix leak
                         find spare(please please be around here somewhere)
                         organise all these bikes and parts a bit better

Are you all right?
"yeah-nah"!
Sounds like that advert on TV.
If you are looking for those mint CB650 pipes, you generously donated them to Hush in a moment of complete madness. ;D

wish I could help you with the pipes hush. I've got a 4 into 1 at the moment (my design) but once I have this wee project going want to go for 4 seperate megaphones aka early style race pipes. I've been chatting to afew people lately trying to line someone up to make what I want, or failing that might try and convince my old exhaust man to come out of retirement
