Woose's bikes were very very clean . And the ZRX is better in the flesh than the pics I have seen before . That Mori pipe is a lot nicer than I thought .

The 350 is running well .... sort of .
Drilled out the old stud hole and put a timesert in . But .. when I had the barrel off , Nobby spied a crack in the piston skirt , so told me to get the other barrel off and it was time for a rebore . The bores were actually pretty badly etched from some previous water damage .

Had a new pair of 1.5 oversize pistons in no time and last Wednesday the barrels and pistons were at the engineers with instructions to get em back fast .
Thursday afternoon it was all back together :D

The only problem now is with the carbs . The 32s on it are rooted making setting float height a hit and miss afair . Mid range is bad . Not an issue at Phillip Island , but would be a bastard at Mac Park :lol:
Riding the Nikko high lighted how bad the LC's midrange is . The TZ 350 motor was way more tractable :roll:

Mind you , still had a ball on it . :twisted: New carbs are ordered .

Had a crack at getting this going , but just too much other shit to do . Thanks to Nobby and Ash for having a red hot go . Makes it hard when bearings for a crank are not what they are supposed to be :roll:

Would love a set of these astralites for mine, the historic guys loved Broady when they went there so will be on the must visit later in the year, am currently building an LC as well.

That was a very tidy bike .
You want to try and get to the Aussie Titles , November @ Symons Plains . Or The Island Classic . A few Westies get over for the Island .
Have you met Glen Ducie (sp) over there ? He gets over to Historic events and would know all about shipping .

Astralites turn up ever now and then . Those black ones look the best IMHO

Yep I know Glen through the HCMCWA over here, they were raving about the last Broady visit, they normally ship a sea container of bikes over for the big events, would love to ride the island one day :D
