I suggest that you try the fork gaitors featured here: http://bellacorse.com/bcc106.htm

I've used them several times, they are strudy and fit weel after removing the dust caps on the forks lower legs. Lots of ither cool stuff at BellCorse too.

Got my new 2 into 1 intake, great work Dan from Sprocketwerx.

yeah drewpy, can't wait to finish it, at the moment the only thing holding up the build is the brakes. I'm having massive issue in trying to get the pistons out and finding a master cylinder. I think i will polish the intake

intakes should not be polished but be slightly rough inside. this keeps the fuel/air mix moving thus max mix gets sucked into the bores.

A smooth surface will cause the fuel to "drop" to the sides.

 

[AMR-XS400]

sorry should explain, im only polishing the exterior. But that info is good to know

Well more parts have arrived, at the moment the rims are off getting powder coated and tyres fitted. It appears the 4.50 Firestone just squeezes in the front between the forks. I have a 4.50 on the rear as well. I also received my stacks from Steel Dragon Performance. I ordered a Brass one and aluminium one. Once the bike is finished i'll decided which one looks best on it. I'm thinking the Brass because it matches the grips and the brown leather seat i'm getting made.
