Runner ready? ish…

Anyone remember this?

Well it’s been put to a good use:

fecking awesome no?

then i had to ride this thing around a bit to check it’s all working after a rebuild. all good,some more gearbox oil and then have to do a bit more testing tomorrow to make sure it’s good for competition.

Got further along with the runner 180, glued in the autolube nipple, nipple it self is rescued from the old delorto. Last time i did this i glued it in with epoxy this time it’s only held in by superglue, we shall see how that turns out.

must protrude into the fuel/air stream.

Top end complete, never checked the whole barrel height after murphy engineering skimmed it, but it only took one 0.4 gasket to make the squish 0.9, the base gasket should have been 1.0 along with the corresponding hike in the ports. it’s still an improvement over standard just a small one.

cable length for the PWK is next hurdle. and i have to buy bbq paint.

Skipping the solid engine mounts for now, lets just get it started first.

    does petrol not eat superglue?

    It doesn’t really get to it, the nipple is quite tight in there. I’ll keep a close eye on it.
