m900 makeover before and after

I've no idea what they are, I bought them damaged for next to nothing and chopped out the bad bit, and just so happened to look pretty well! They sound awesome, really deep rumble.

Thx I have saved this thread for when I am ready to do the paintjob. Will need to find a temp tank for that time.

The bike looks great. Glad more people are building bikes on a low budget and getting great looking results..... Well done.

Ps happy to pass on paint details. I am more than happy with my metal flake paint job. I can also get decals cut to order to.

Scrapps will your place do paint + stripe.

I hope you don't mind me asking, but is it really a good idea to take the cam belt covers off?

i couldnt really see any major risks in doing it, there could be,but at least i get to keep an eye on belt condition. i like the mechanical look of it.

Just flicking through some previous threads and came across this one.

I've been riding around for about 3 years with no covers on with no problems whatsoever.
And I'm with you Pancho. I like the mechanical look too.

That's lovely, and very inspiring as I start tidying up my low budget 600.

Nice transformation!

Gamsa,

Bareing the belts is the way ahead, how else can you see if they are about to snap!!!!

I run the belts open myself and never had a prob, although I left the part that cover the front cylinder pulley in place, to avoid picking up any stone from the front wheel.
