Yves, Awesome looking and potent performing. Sets a bench mark in clean brute.
Regardless of grandpual spreading carbonfiber rumors of me making false claims 60 rwhp should be good for close to 140 if geared for it below red line. But with a OEM cast iron flywheel in there, wise not to press rpm luck and just enjoy the snot of its torque like you do.
What BF did you settle on and can you feel the valve train besides the primary oscillation?
The gauge dash looks like steam punk Buck Rogers art Deco to me, Yum.
What's on the headers than stay shinny black or is that before using?
Hi Hobot,
Don't forget that I speak a poor english and that I will not understand words like "clean brute" of course I can guest....
140 miles/h seam to be closer to the reality, my gearing is 23 / 38 with OEM crankgear and clutch gear and a TTI gear box
The gauge dash keep me hours buzy, I did everithing by hand, the thing is fully mounted on silentblocks
I made also a lot of other things my self like the engine mounting plates (8 mm aircraft alloy) and I dont worry if I have to spend 60 hours to be happy with the final result
The full exaust system is black chromed, already 5 years old (I had this exaust alredy on my Commando before putting it on the Seeley)
I saw a post about Black chrome, I must tell you that only a few platters in the world are able to do black chrome from high quality, and my platter is one of them, good black chrome is as hard as normal chrome and will not scratch or burn. of course he will keep the chemical composition of the product "top secret"
I must say that my platter is already the third generation in the bussiness of chroming and the owner teach me how to polish alloy and give me all the tricks that he receive from is dad and and grand dad and I wish to tell you that there is more to know as what you receive as explaination when you buy a polishing kit
Cheers, yves
