      Hi,

      Wow! That is toooo slick! I'm loving the eye candy on your bike. Very nice.



      Thank you for your indulgence,

        How many small furry animals have you sucked in since you stuck those bellmouths on there?

        Looking good - wonder what it'll look like with the engine running (those dry Duke clutches are just plain boring).

        What paint did you use on the clutch cover?

            haha, 2 squirrels and a couple of bees, plays havoc with the fuel mixture
            still looking for some gauze filters.
            will post vid up next couple of days when i get an oil and filter change in him.

            cover had 2 coats of VHT plus copious(?) coats of PJ1 satin black case paint. matches the exhaust and the sprocket cover on the other side

              You know this could spawn a new oil thread. What COLOUR oil should I use?

                  Duckhams was always blue. I haven't seen it for years but my old chap swears by it.

                        Oh come on! Where's your sense of adventure?

                        Think about it... A tablespoon of that stuff will do SO much good for a 2-stroke, imagine how much good a whole crankcase would do for a 4-stroke!

                          But since 4 is twice as much as 2, you should probably use twice as much just to be safe.
