Re: New 18" Rubber for Vintage Race Bikes

I actually didn't try to price them. I had been talking to them about Endurance Tires for a P3 bike and they sent those as an option as they fit on skinny rims.

New 18" Rubber for Vintage Race Bikes

It seems to be either feast or famine with vintage 18" tyres. Pirelli have launched a new line of 18" racing rubber for vintage race bikes. It's the spec tire for CRMC, Classic TT and Classic Europe Endurance Cup. Those all used to be AVON. I believe its the same SC1 and SC2 compounds that...

Re: 6 piston calipers - 1996 GSXR750

Thanks Bill. I haters that from a few people at the sho that the 4 pistons actually work better.

Sounds like a plan. I just didn’t want to change the fork or fork bottoms as well

Re: Looking for a Source for Points

CMSNL have them but the price is mental (maybe that’s what points cost now)

https://www.cmsnl.com/honda-mt125-elsin ... E++06.html

But I would think if they have them any Honda dealer could get them.

Re: Looking for a Source for Points

Maybe a little more than you want to spend but its better than messing around with 50 or 60 years old electrics

Re: Board Software Replacement

Yes, don't worry about that. They are trying to sell hosting services to companies. We would probably just stick it in AWS ourselves The software is free and opensource. We also have the ability to change it as long as we contribute the changes back to the project. There would be a cost for hosting ...

Re: Board Software Replacement

Yes. The two hot ones at the moment are Discord and Discourse. One is based more on a board construct while the other is more of a collaborative construct like a lightweight Slack.

Board Software Replacement

This is just a discussion only. I'm not going to make any changes without agreement. The software for this board is quite old and its not really supported any more. I can keep it running as I have access to all the source code to make updates (I just had to make a change for a security vulnerability...

Re: Rules Clarification on Chain Masterlink

BTW, this was an attempt at humor. When my friend bought his TT500 this had been used to extend the chain and had been ridden on the road for many miles

Rules Clarification on Chain Masterlink

So these are lock nuts. Do I still need safety wire or silicone, or are the lock nuts sufficient. Its not clear from the rule book.

I found one in my tote full of junk from a 600 F2 that bolts right on. I just had to swap the rod. Appreciate the pointer

Re: 2024 endurance series

Ok. So I’m assuming the basic format will not change then. So if I build a P3 bike it will still slot into light, middle or heavy Vintage as appropriate and then handicap applied based on Period.

I am determined to not to be working on it the night before again this year :)

Re: 2024 endurance series

That would be great. I'm cobbling together an Endurance bike for next year so if there are going to be major changes I can build around them now.

Re: Hawk Rear Master Cylinder

Thanks Jim. That's good to know.

I tried to cross reference the part number in Partzilla but came up with nothing.I have a couple of late 80's and early 90's Honda master cylinders in a tote at my sons. Let me dig them out but stand by
