Re: Project Phoenix
I've got a SRAD wheel somewhere... And some scabby discs too. And maybe an axle and spacer. But it'll be ages till I change my forks, and they're in a sorry state anyway, not worth the postage I reckon.
Maybe 21Quest still has his spare front end?

Re: Project Phoenix
He lives!!!
 Well not really  ... but his rear wheel has turned once more  ... I got a puncture in my Blue bike so slung Phoenix's wheel in to get me by until I fix the puncture ... but oh my Phoenix's tyre is shot ... it looks like a car tyre it has that wide a flat spot  ... no wonder ASM said he didn't like the handling of the SV with that thing on there - it has NO profile and rides horrible!!!!

Re: Project Phoenix
Finally got round to doing a bit more to phoenix past couple of weekends ...
Today I got it in to such a state that Phoenix was ready to start ... and SHE LIVES!!!  My plan is to get it ready for Silverstone at the ends of next month ... The two main bits I need is a clock/screen/fairing bracket (crucial) and a set of clocks ... apart from that (and consequently fitting the fairing) she is hot to trot Well, I ought to do something about the undersprung Bandit forks too ... but prolly won't bother

Re: Project Phoenix
Wow. You have some mechanical talent!
I wouldn't even know where to start! How did you remove/replace the engine. Them things tend to be on the heavy side. |
