Re: tyre pressures, tubeless rims

Tubeless rims, I run at 20 front & 30 rear solo. Your front tyre pressure is high.

Re: 26 years later

Looking really good.
Just a question about the three hole engine mounts- I was lead to believe these are mounted with the bottom hole at 6 o'clock? Sure I read that somewhere?

Re: Suspected Puncture with Slime

If you want to let the air out of the tube that contains slime, valve must be towards top end of tyre or slime will stop deflation.
This applies to pumping up tyres too. Have valve towards top to stop slime fouling valve. ;)

Agreed. Just be sure to check the clearance and strobe check timing.

Re: Flywheel/Stator Options?

I have recently fitted a BGM Stator and BGM CDI unit.
I run it with a Rayspeed supplied medium weight Indian Flywheel.
Runs well.

Re: engine powder coating

Had mine done at Midas touch. Quality job. Black with green flake. I find it very easy to keep clean. http://i1007.photobucket.com/albums/af198/gazo1963/Engine/SoulRebel024.jpg http://i1007.photobucket.com/albums/af198/gazo1963/Engine/SoulRebel029.jpg No, not my garage so don't ask about the Hoover....
