Trying to resolve a few things while I am waiting on parts to arrive.

I cleaned up the clutch and it doesn't look too bad now. It definitely needs new fibers because of spots of rust, even though the fibers, steels and springs were all well within spec, almost at the spec for new items.





Here is the outer basket.

Default Pro Grip Rally Grips and Other Stuff

Still waiting on powdercoater and new parts, so I tried to finish up a few other things.

Cut the old scott gripe off the throttle.


I disassembled the throttle and cleaned up the inside of the throttle tube with a dremel and a wire wheel.




I ran a tap through the pro tapers so I can can mount hand guards.


This is the throttle after cleanup ready for new Pro Grip Rally Grips to be mounted,glued and safety wired.




MSR Raptor Clutch lever.

Default Mastercross Parts/Motos Italy-Watercooled RM 500

Just got these Oem nos radiator louvers yesterday. I have been looking for these everywhere. I found these in Italy of all places. His name is Tiziana and speaks ok English. I had my parts in 14 days. He has vintage works parts, he builds aluminum tanks and he has a bunch of bikes for sale.

Like this water cooled 1985 RM 500

Default EBC Grooved Brake Shoes have Arrived

I just contacted my powdercoater, he is a great guy and he is covered up with work so it will be two more weeks before he has my frame, engine, triples, hubs etc finished. I don't mind waiting because he does it the right way the first time.

I did receive some stuff that the average young rider has never seen.

RM 250 EBC Grooved brake shoes!






The grooves are supposed to channel any water or debris out of the shoes.

That RM. I've watercooled a couple of aircooled bikes, but I haven't seen one direct drive off the flywheel before, except by belt. That's a lot cleaner than I would have expected.
