i have just been playing with my little overflow bottle
its actually an oil catch-can off ebay
jeez its nice, cost about fifty bucks but woulda taken my hours to machine
still, if i can find a good enough spot it wont quite fit in i might cut it in half
later i guess, just hang it off the side for now
-
hey fimp, can you post a pick of the catch bottle and how well does she work? i have a bunch in my watched list but have been hesitant for some reason. after moving the battry to the tail left a well enough void for something. i like the ones with the fitted tube for the site window. i was also contemplating modding up a box for where the old damper box was beside the spring. but like ya said it will be much easier to fancy a prefabbed unit off ebay!

looks like this
its a bit porky, but i figure with the amount i have stripped off her already it wont worry things too much
good thing is that because of its construction u can undo the upper bolts and swivel the direction the hoses come in from, which i imagine will come in handy
oh, and the bolt from the bottom is magnetic fwiw

got around to tapping the holes in my veypor mount that i bandsawed out the other week
its made from 12mm and 3mm ally after the nylon one i did a few months back wasnt too my liking
2x M5 flat head cap screws come down from the top of the 3mm ally and then into the tapped lower part of the clamp
then the standard veypor bolts come up from the underside of the 3mm ally
very neat, im pretty chuffed with it
jut need to rip it apart and trim the 3mm down to a minimum once i have all the other various brackets done [8D]

this shot shows a bit more of how it works
i was wanting to replace the veypor bolts with torx screws
but i think that they might be imperial (not M5 like i thought originally)
so that might make things tricky

im thinking for radiator hoses that i will get some custom stainless ones done
i have a friend who has been using my tig to make up intercooler plumbing for a few years
so he owes me a favour or two
the way the hose jut comes straight out of the chassis rail like the photo above is going to make braided stuff too much of a hassle

Its similar to my blade mate. Chunky ass. Most bikes were like that mid to late 90's. Even the supposed 'hallowed' Gixxers had serious booty back then. Thats why i am leaving my stock front guard. Dont want to make it look 'back heavy' with a tiny guard on the front.
