Been a while eh? Kidney disease, very rare auto-immune Adult Minimal Change Disease, i’ve been in remission for a week, which is nice, so I got a haircut shaved my outa control beard.<\/p>\n

Still off my face on steroids, having roid-rage at missing tea towels, eating everything (lost 17kg of water and fat, 72kg stickman now) but it’s time for an update, even half dead i managed to fix a few things \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Teds new toy!, he wanted a GB500 for sometime, in the end he now has a GB400TT slighty tatty<\/p>\n

Tatty is good because it will be getting the dominator 650 engine, then were gonna pop the 400 into the domi for the crack.<\/p>\n

Cub90 longstoke racer head, really should have found an E22 head, but I’ll make it work, gonna raise the port to match the 22mm inlet i have, here I’ve finished lapping in the valves, there were well bad. actually the short side turn wasn’t so bad so once I’m done it should flow reasonably.<\/p>\n

Nikki broke his car again \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Noel Quinn top man, lent me this Chinese 110 just in case i blow the 90 racer, the other lads can still have ago.<\/p>\n

Niall Mackenzie’s old yzf750r caburys boost race leathers, i fit in them now ‘coz I’m skinny.
\nlikely to let me race in them? ha no.<\/p>\n

And finally, over the last month and a half I couldn’t drive the bike, the poor landy never broke down! But it has been getting slower the poor thing. So a service, dad helped with all the bits that needed an arm (and not a wet noodle arm). We replaced the lift pump, fuel filter, oil + oil filter.
\nCleaned out the mesh filter in the tank again too. The lift pump should have been replaced when i cleaned and sealed the tank. 1400 miles before i fecking changed the oil, really should have done when i got, lazy bastard.<\/p>\n

Also a catch tank for the engine breather was zip tied into place, and some where along the way i replaced the rad cap and chucked the useless engine fan and duck taped up some internal hot air vents to try in vain to keep the windscreen demisted me vaguely warm. two coats, MX gloves, a hat and a full head scarf did most of the work \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

It’s all fast again, needs the correct gearbox oil to speed up the changes, then a longer ratio transfer box. still not enough boost, gonna play with pump setting but i still think it the crappy intercooler and pipe work. Later when I’m not so dependent on it.<\/p>\n

Roll on summer, good kidneys and my bike!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
