So after one last rummage through the shed i came across one last major part of the engine that i needed, i thought that i lost this and needed to pay for another, i have a brand new bush too fit this , i,ll get this fitted whilst i wait fot the heavy duty clutch too arrive... One mitaka clutch basket and drive gear...

Nice. I keep wondering whether I should upgrade my clutch. I’ve new friction plates and x3 TZ springs, but that’s all..

Well if the clutch slips I'll take that as a result and then upgrade the whole thing!

You can't change the date the pic was taken, its in the meta-data of the photo and locked in. This is how some people get caught out for insurance fraud and other crimes or lies.

Sooo a new frame that i ordered is no longer available , this has thrown a major spanner in the works for my rebuild looks like i,m gonna have too try and have my frame straightened up, i.still need to get a set of r6 yokes so i can make a rolling chassis before this can be done... Looks like i need too widen my search for a rolling chassis with v5 a bit further { this.ll teach me for selling the last RS i had } . Oh well back to the collecting of parts.....
