If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

    The old master pump was both leaking and looking pretty worn out. Was contemeplating a rebuild kit, but decided on a new master in stead. Didnt cost too much and looks nice i think :) IMG_20190920_175251 by Lars Krogh-Stea, on Flickr.

    That's a nice compact stance on that bike :) I have a Kercher 4 into 1 exhaust on mine and the exhaust tubes are more to the senter of the bike which gives more lean angle even if the bike is lower. Do you have a closeup of how you made the risers for the shocks?

    Awesome feedback :) I don't know as much about this as you do, but I think I'm on the same track. The reason I have the foot that far forward is because I haven't mounted rearsets on this side yet, and I'm putting the bike in neutral from second;) If you look 5-6 cm behind my heel, you can se...

    Was going to ride the bike home this weekend, but things didn't go well.. Neither of the petcocks I bought off of eBay worked. The short one was leaking at the riveted plate in the front. The longer one didn't leak but it didn't flow well enough to keep the right fuel level in the carbs...

    Accossato PRS2 radial master with matching clutch lever. Blue ATE brake fluid matched the blue stripes on the tank and seat nicely :) 2019-09-06_04-03-38 by Lars Krogh-Stea, on Flickr IMG_20170407_115832 by Lars Krogh-Stea, on Flickr

    I'm thinking maybe over the carburettors, on the right side where I've marked with a blue dot. Tenning by Lars Krogh-Stea, on Flickr

    There's no room for the ignition-lock on the top triple so I'll have to place it somewhere else. Anyone have a suggestion? Pictures are welcome :)

    The handlebar controls I bought came with one momentary and two laching buttons. I knew this in advance, but I bought them anyway because the housing are good quality and I have some spare M12 momentary steel buttons. What I didn't know was that they were non standard threads and I don't have a...

    Pretty happy with the decision to powdercoat the rearsets gloss black :) I haven't finished the left footpeg yet, but the season is getting close to the end and I want to get the bike on the road, so I'll go with the black nylon prototype for now ;) 2019-08-25_10-05-02 by Lars Krogh-Stea, on...

    Thank you! Yes, knee indents would be cool too. I had a Kawasaki zx7-r Ninja before and the knees fit perfect when braking, and as you say, it's a big help :) I don't know how much it would help on this bike though, as the rearsets are positioned pretty far towards the rear. This makes the leg...

    Started to redo the wiring today. First picture is the backside of the main fuse. Second and third picture is the connection for reg/rec. The red wire goes directly to the main fuse since the original fuse-board is gone. 2019-08-02_10-17-44 by Lars Krogh-Stea, on Flickr 2019-08-02_10-17-33...
