QuoteI shaved it enough that the flanges fit. Before shaving, it would fit without the flanges.

Yes but obviously not in the right place.. Milling the heads may have been the problem but with a motor as this, this fit issue could be expected.

Had to get my tranny rebuilt.  Jim's door and a used 5 spd gear set from a member for now.

Finally got the tranny back, mounted it and the engine In the bike.  Starting to bolt everything back together. 

Will update as I go along.

Finally got the chain drive ordered and in.  I got side tracked on another project.  Back on track here now.  I believe I have all the parts I need now, so I'll get putting everything back together.

Engine and tranny are in the bike, chain going on this weekend and primary, clutch etc.  hopefully have it fired up in 2 weeks or so.

Did some work organizing and running the wiring harness for EFI today.

Also installed the chain drive.  The rear spacer is too thick, I'm having it machined thinner tomorrow. 

Next weekend we are Fabing the exhaust up,  if anyone has any tips, let me know.

Exhaust is fitted and tacked.  Going to weld it tomorrow and put the 02s on it.

Should the O2s be spaced the same length from the head on rear and front?

The tank needs some paint and body work to cover the fuel pump cover.

Hopefully have it running in a week or two.

How about some details to go along with the exhaust pics?

Thumper, its a stepped header, 2", 2 1/8", 2 1/4", 17" megaphone from Burns stainless.

I wont post the lengths of the steps, because I got it from star and I am not sure if they want their pipe design all over the internet.

Looks nice.We need some audio when you fire that thing up.I have an idea what it sounds like but still want to hear it.

Merc63

Jams,  I now know why you said I hope everything works out good.  Every time I put a new part on, something has to be cut or trimmed for clearence.  It's been a slow process, but it's starting to come together now.

I need to find a new seat and some new wheels and I think that covers just about everything.

Can't wait to go for a ride.

If you are going for performance it's hard to beat reducing rotational mass:

Thumper, I've seen those.  That's something for down the road maybe. 

The rear wheel on this bike is like a boat anchor.  I wish someone made some nice looking aluminum wheels that had weight in mind.  I was going to get some pmfr wheels, but he stopped making them.  Maybe hogpro 8 spokes now.

Hi,merc63 where about in cnd are you from thanks John

 :up: What gear ratio did you go with?

Merc63

John, Alberta.

I used the stock gear ratio with the chain drive.

Inner primary is on.  Clutch hub is going to get pressed into the basket tomorrow. 

Exhaust is welded up.  Just need to mount the 02 bungs.

I have tuning booked for the end of the month so it's time to get my ass in gear.

Can't wait to get to the track and she what she will do.

Nice work ! :up:

as I look at the picture of the rear wheel in the swingarm, it looks to me like you're gonna bend axles and dish the axle adjuster plates when you drop the hammer - you might want to think about bolting a Rivera outboard bearing support to your sprocket/wheel, as well as have adjuster plates machined from 1/4" or 3/8" aluminum for the swingarm.  :idea:

Merc63

Yes,  some retard tried to hide the axle bolt into the swing arm.

They opened up the swing arm hole on one side.  I tried to use a plate on the outside of the swing arm, but the nut dished the plate.  I'm going to try a big grade 8 washer.

Wouldn't mid controls be more conducive to track use?

100%, but I have long legs and mid controls suck around town.  This is a street/strip bike.  I still take it on trips 1000km occasionally.
