Maybe try putting the needle on #2.  Be very careful, if you hear even one ping, immediately let off the gas.  If not, in a second or two your engine will need a new piston at a minimum.

Gonna run the pipelynes. Soft spot for them since they were made locally. Got a spoked rear hub I need to figure out how to set up and need to get a better set of shox. Rebuilt crank on the bench right now and top end is off to SCR. Also need to figure out how to mount the Benelli clone tank. It is rewarding to really get the ball rolling on this. I've moved 4 times since i got this thing so the only miles it's seen has been in  the back of my truck.

New set of RD 350 tin for the price of a bike?

OK. They are nice. Just not THAT nice.

That's not Chevy orange.

Turning Wrenches / shifter bushing: side cover re...

Last post by m in sc - June 06, 2024, 01:00:33 PM

was noticing the shifter was a bit wiggly in the rd, so took cover off, re-centered hole (not hard, just file the opposite side of the wear of it oblong w the 'oval' centered where the hole needs to be), and drilled it down with a 5/8" drill bit, and pressed in a 12x16mm bushing. much more positive shift, and sures the 'leaking seal' issue on the shift shaft. this is the correct repair to stop this since as the cover wears, it becomes a single shear support causing sloppier shits & seal leak. I prefer this vs the extended seal repair kit (unless the shaft itself is worn beyond use)
