This chart can give you an idea of what to look at in your rev range

Got my tank , sidecovers and ducktail back from paint . Very good job on the finish and very good price . Now I am just waiting on the motor and the rebuild can start

Evaporust is the best thing I have ever found for rusty parts

They do look good . All you need is an original and do some mesurements . Like trail and rake , fork travel and so forth

Finally found out what these are , they are from a company called trueforged . There logo is a "T" in a triangle and as they are 64.4 in size , I will be going to an 65

I am looking for a set of front blinker/headlight mounts for an F2 . Number 13 and 14 on the diagram . I purchased a bike and the previous owner has cut off the original blinker mounts so I would like to return the bike to standard , resonable condition would be prefered , greg

You could plastiweld it with a similar colour or do fiberglass . As it is on the inside of the airbox and noone will see it , all you really need to do is make sure it all fits together once done

The system will collect water after time and the brake piston will rust and sieze in the caliper . So it doesnt hurt to completely tear them down for peace of mind . It isnt hard , just do what you did before and use the youtubes for the info and check them out . A new seal and boot for the...

You dont have to soda blast if they are not too bad just get an ultr sonic cleaner

Get a sonic cleaner , well worth the cost

If you look around , you can get very small lithium batteries and they have a much higher CCA

this guy does a good vid

Hey clifford , how did you go with the sprocket ? I am going to do this to my 77 F2 when I get it going . What gearing did you go with ? I was told 16-45 would suit mine but am finding it difficult to get that size rear , so might go 48 , greg

I live in the nth east of oz , townsville and it is going to the very sth east of oz , gippsland . Unfortunately there is no-one near me that knows these motors . Even chroming has to do a 400 klm trip , one way . Over the years many buisinesses have closed down and a lot of knowledge has been...

Engine is boxed up and ready to go on it`s 5400 klm trip

Certainly will aswell as the cam chain wheel and the clutch cush drive

Very happy with the looks of this . Can`t find any glitter in the oil filter and only what looks like a bit of old hard rubber/gasket material in the screen . The bottom of the sump wasn`t too bad either , with just a very slight film of old oil sludge on it that you could hardly push around ...

Did the guages with new faces and lock rings and now have almost everything I need to get her going . Sometime soon will be sending the motor off for a complete rebuild

The speedo says 27 000 mile , So who knows . I dont know yet how far I will have to go . Once I pull it down I will know . By the look of the bores it will need a hone at least and the valves have been leaking for some time , so with what looks like rusty rings , the pistons look like shite

Thanx for that , seems I got a big bore . Bet you any money it wasnt done properly

A bit of cleaning today . I did all of the guards , the stainless and plastic , the airbox , cleaned the carbs and popped the rocker cover off to have a captain cook

I am probably going to have to split the cases , as the saying goes . So I used a camera probe to check out the cylinders and this is what I have in my 77 supersport . I should have a rounded dome piston , yes ? And this bad boy has 4.0MM stamped on it . Unfortunately this is the only readable...

These carbys do not overflow into the engine , they have external overflows below the float bowls and will spew fuel all over the ground under the bike . I had a cam chew out in my original F2 and it was a high pitched squeaking noise . It was caused by the restrictor/oil jets being blocked in...

I`m in townsville . I bought one of these brand new back in the day and that was one of the first things I removed . This one has it also , so in the bin !

3 weeks of soaking in WD40 and I was able to get the swing arm out , Man this is turning into a pain real quick , a whole bike has quickly turned into just a frame

The engine looks like it has had a few valve troubles and it could have been seized at some point . Full strip down happening now

rebuilt the brakes this weekend with all new stainless fittings and pistons , plus rekits for the masters . And just a touch of caliper paint to pretty them up
