Here's the welded exhaust refitted, nice and shiny!

[Calum]

That looks super!

[oldman]

Pleased with it, mates son welded for me, looks original and owner happy, that's a result!

I usually dislike those end tips, but this does look smart!

Bored this evening so decided to go the full hog and mirror polish silencer, looks better in real life if you know what I mean.

Been using that, trouble is, rack = grille, and all you get are rad grills, need to work out what the French call a parcel rack

@Bluestoesonnose you heard don’t know how you lot cope without my expertise... I’m joking of course

@NINJA used p1500 wet and dry to flatten back, then bench polisher with fine wax and mop polisher for the difficult to get at bits. Then solvol to finish. Thinking of getting the full stainless system do myself now, would do the spout the same

Checked stroke of oil pump and found set at 0.22mm, OK for 3db1 model (0.20 to 0.25mm ), removed shim and Max stroke 0.17mm now, manual says 3rn1 onwards model 0.15 to 0.20. Bike late 89. Didn't seem smoky at all anyway, think running in below 6k for 400 miles left it a bit oily
