well after attempting to kill my trackbike back in April..... then skipping the country for six months.... the time has come to rebuild it...... with pretty much all the spanner work being done by a mate of mine.... (and bonesters!)
here are some pix so far....

Re: rebuilding.....
Got the shims today... so the cams are back in..... carbies on.....so it is getting there..... I will sort it out over the next couple of weeks and it will be ready for the new year 
I can't wait to get it done......
There is one little problem to be fixed though.. and that is the rear rim has a bit of a buckle.... so will have to see about getting it straightened! it is not too bad, and I can just run with the spare rims which are straight as anyway!

Re: rebuilding.....
Laurie Alderton (or more correctly Dave, his sidekick) will fix the rim. Probably about $90 and a few days turn-around.swabio-ACT wrote:There is one little problem to be fixed though.. and that is the rear rim has a bit of a buckle.... so will have to see about getting it straightened! it is not too bad, and I can just run with the spare rims which are straight as anyway!

Re: rebuilding.....
If you go down that route let me know as I have client in the same street as Laurie so I could slip out for a delivery / pick up / network & do the logistics from this endswabio-ACT wrote:Cheers Dave,dave#3 wrote:Laurie Alderton (or more correctly Dave, his sidekick) will fix the rim.

Re: rebuilding.....
Laurie Alderton is a dead-set legend from way back - if he is doing the work on your rims mate, you'll be fine.
There used to be a mob over in Queanbehole who did this, but they closed the shop about 4 years ago....
