Hey Yeah,

I'm back up on the mine site now. So another 3 weeks before I get to have a play with the bike.

I designed the spacers but was unable to get them made up and fitted.

Thanks tartan.

That should be enough to make sure I have the right bar stock available.
I guess we will have to measure it up anyway to a high precision. we dont want slop in the front end!

So the Left and right spacer are definitely different tough?

Cheers for the help mate. Much appreciated.

Hey Gang, I just purchased some 02/03 R1 forks from the US. Does anyone have drawings with dimensions for the wheel spacers that need to be machined up? I work up on a mine site 3 weeks on 1 week off and am planning to fit them up when I get home, but if i can send dimensions to my machinist friend ...

gest my friend.

does the moderation need to be so tough though.
Surely it would reduce the amount of work for the mods if we could report the dodgy posts rather than every thread have to be approved ?? I know this is the norm on all the other forums i visit.

grrr.. right when i had important questions!!!

what happened to my other thread about triangles??? has it gone MIA??

well i bought the shock, i just need to get some crush tubes made up since the spacings of the shock mounts are quite wide on the cagiva and the Ducati shock is much narrower. hopefully it fits and works ok. my biggest worrie is that the direction that the banjo bolt on the remote adjust is angled a...

Phil, I'm having front suspension dramas too right now. after putting new seals, in it is getting worse under brakes with a vibration (most likely head stem) and i've got way too much static sag (maybe 40mm!). Plus i got sent the lowering kit triangles not the raiser kit. :( I did a big seach into t...

OK guys i dont know where my last thread went, maybe sits still in the moderating list however i need some help. My BikefarmMV triangles appear to be lowing the bike not raising it. A Lot. Ive even tried all orientations for bolting it up with no luck at any Jack up! I just spotted on Gumtree an Ohl...

nice to see another west aussie on here!

I'm assuming Rick Gills wont help?? When i used to own my Mito i used to just get eveything from th UK.
It was quicker and cheaper.

With the aussie dollar high atm, can you get the adaptor from the states??

Who is doing your dyno work?? Russel Speak?

Hey Gang,

Just thought I'd drop a dline before i start dropping questions all over the place.
I picked up my 650 a few months ago and don a little bit of work on it but it needs some more, hence the questions in threads twhich will follow sometime soon.

Cheers
Alex
