discovering that if you let your chain go too loose on a thundercat it can jump the front sprocket, snap the clutch pushrod arm wrecking the oil seal and elongate the hole in the crank case for the pushrod basically writing off the engine as you need 2 new crank cases!!!!!!!!!!!

BIG BILL!!

Well, at 8 this morning, my door bell rang and I ran to open the door in just my shorts (hehe). Anyway, it was the postman carrying 2 boxes and I know it has made my day and made me smile.

I won the bid on 2 items last week on ebay and it has arrived. Although these items are used, they are just impossible to find back in Canada. Used set of Tarozzi rearsets for the RD350LC and a used set of Swarbrick expansion chambers.

The chambers needs to be sand blasted and a fresh coat of heat paint but thats the least of my worries right now, how the hell am I going to fit them in my suitcase when time comes to bring them home Confused

...

Either way, I'm still smiling Wink

What that Thundercat has done is exactly what happened to my brothers NC30, he's been looking for an engine for months now. Poor git with the 'Cat, he thought he only needed a new clutch cable.

My zorsts are at the sorting office. All set for my final 7am taxi.

I don't need to stand on the back break, the Dyno tester weighs about 60 stone so if I work that power:weight ratio out the Zed's prolly gonna be making 3bhp at the crank and -10bhp at the rear wheel Laughing

Alternatively they just press the numbers I want to see Wink
