  1. Yes, after re-chroming they are made to the original specs (using a Lathe). Everything fits perfectly: no leaks!
  2. The bike is home again. Shocks will be ready in 3 weeks. This membrane from one of the carbs has seen better days..........
  3. Carbs are synchronized: purrs like a kitten. These need some love....... 370 euro to renew them.... for one side. So we're bringing them to a specialist.
  4. 2 issues: - the front suspension is leaking (both sides) - the carbs are still not 100% So the motor surgeon can do his thing next week! Ready for ER:
  5. 'Checked battery and noticed it was down to 12 amps. Its new but may of discharged it some testing things.' or 12 volt? Looks like a grounding problem to me.
  6. I ordered a used water pump cover in the USA and received it today. The part was 9 bucks and shipment 23........... It was all about this bolt, cleaned it and mounted it. Part number unknown....... But we're on the road again!
  7. Thank you! Without the tube/bolt in the cover, the pump cover will leak between the round plate on the front and the cover housing unfortunately. The round plate looks like an escape route for the coolant when the pressure is getting too high.
  8. It was a great year working on the Yamaha! Thank you for all the comments, tips, tricks and.....humor! https://youtu.be/xRiDV7FBavw
  9. We're missing a part from the water pump cover. Clymer and CSML doesn't show the part on their drawings. Any idea? On the left is our cover. Have a great weekend!
