March 2018

Have spent the last few weeks on various projects. After having seen my friend Marcel put together the bottom half, crankcase – crankshaft, it became clear that I would ask him to also build the top end. He displayed such skills and experience that I knew instantly that he would do a far better job…

Finally received the primary drive pulley, after having had it turned, milled, EDM´d and hard anodized. Looks good or not? Tried to assemble crank into crankcases and then the drive side bearing journal bushing that had been fitted just fell off. No way to use crank as received. Realized that this was hopeless and a…

Crankshaft is back again and allowed me to take the measurements needed to finish the drawing for the crankshaft pulley. Found a company, on the internet, in this country that is able to turn the pulley out of 7075-T6 round stock and cut the 30 AT10 teeth that I think I need. Once that is…

Have spent much time with various ”experts” ( I do not mean it ironically ) on the final dimensions for the exhaust pipes and megaphones, trying to understand the very basics of what effect exhaust pipe diameter and length as well as megaphone and reverse cone diameters and lengths have on at which rpm the…

Jim Comstock has finished his work on my cylinder head. He has repeated what I once did to my first Norton Commando engine: re-angled the holes for the valve guides so that he could fit 3 mm bigger inlet valves. Then he has opened up the inlet tracts to a 33mm diameter, ported the tracts…

Sometimes you need to be lucky. The balancing company I found does not only have their premises close to me but the owner is the father of a couple of girls that are friends of my daughter, plus he has a very experienced man operating the balancing machine, Mr. Weber. He started by re-arranging the…

July 2 – 2017

I got the crankshaft in from Canada a few weeks back and have been busy ever since trying to make it fit the rest of the engine ( read drive belt pulley ). The maker claimed that his balancers would not be able to finish it in several months so I had him send me…

May 22 – 2017

I added the year to the month and day above as this project seems to drag out over several years. It is not THAT bad though. I think I got started  in September/October 2015 so with a bit of help from God, Mohammed and the last of my suppliers I may get to fire this…

March 4 – 2017

I am still patiently waiting for 3 major items to come in. Crankshaft, Cylinder Head and Exhaust System. The crankshaft is holding up the assembly of the engine bottom end, primary drive and final re-design of the rear engine plates. Once it is here I am also ready to fit the cylinder head and once…
