    They look good -I like the red features you've done throughout also.
    Your work is tempting me to do something similar

    Just a tip Mr Grey.
    Lubricate those fuel seals with a bit of silicone as you install them. They can be a bit tight.

    Im with u there mate!

    Yea just a little bling up ..... its just red caliper paint

    Yea thanx for that ..... was tossing up how to attack that problem ..... if u put the seal in first the brass tube is very tight and if u do both together the tube pushes thru the seal part way in.

    I think this is referred to as a bank of carbs !

    When reviewing the My Fizzer Project, it has surpassed the reading of War and Peace by a country mile. However seeing this magnificent bank of carbs [show off ] I can only conclude that we are reaching the end of our journey.
    We, the forum members want to hear this beast roar into life. Good luck with it tomorrow.:thumb_ups:

    Is it a 'Bank' of carbs because of the amount of $$$$ invested in them? :lolsign:

    Sadly theres no chance of that ..... apart from the riders lack of track time and the bikes lack of track time , theres a small issue of the rego ran out a couple of weeks ago ...... :commando:

    But hopefully if she runs Ill take it for a little test run downtown Sunday morning. (Just on my way to the bike shop for an inspection Officer ! :idk: )

    Definately!

    No group rides for me just yet ....
    Ill let u in on a little secret ......dont tell anyone else ok...... heres the original reason I bought the Fizzer in the first place ... it being a LAMS bike of course ......

    L plate.jpg

    And in the last few years 20ks on a Triumph 750 ,around the block 5 times on an FZR250 and a couple of rides into the mountains and trips to the local public markets in the Philippines on a 150cc stepthru, doesnt constitute much seat time.

    I thought I would have had 12 months of riding but as we all know by this thread ...its been bigger than Ben Hur :commando:
