thats a bit proper innit mr mundy

[zx12argh]

Who'd of thought a simple block of cast metal would illicit such emotional responses from a bunch of hairy backed blokes. Tis truly a thing of beauty.

[Jockney Rebel]

ah im just a bit inspired ..watched 'the worlds fastest indian' again ...reckon ill have a go at something before i check out.
in this world of sanitisation a bit of insanity is a breath of fresh air

[WarHound]

I dunno how much traction your going to get with those wheels .. and the frame could use a polish .. but thats a damn fine power plant 8)

[damo1]

What is it:D

Bottom is"old girl":)(Katana)Top is GSX-R;)internals,now thats a secret[:o)]comp.15:1(somewhere near that)[:0]

[zx12argh]

15:1[:0][?]
What sort of fuel you running this thing on? You must be chasing a few ponies with this sort of work:D

what about after you put the head and base gaskets in it.... :)

[Hagarr]

I've gotta ask the question Why?

[chopiesel]

is that the motor out of the bike in the great escape? what are those funny fins all over it...

Ultimately ALL engines are AIR cooled[8D]Russm8 i also need some STUDs.Laugh as you may but this thing will be tougher than a haymarket rat[:0]

Cause i keep snapping GSX-R cranks OK[?]it also is keeping my insanity at bay

I think I might know where some are.... :D

will Bandit ones do! :) [8D]

[Large]

I reckon that even if we do AFR2008 at Thredbo...you'd better invest in a truck battery because you wont be able to bump staert that before fucking cranberra

[moog]

You'll need a big oil cooler as well, cos i know someone else from Perth who did that, and he suffers cooling problems

Ok so we all seen this shot b4,if ya been around Suzuki`s[?]If you are gonna try this at home,at this stage you require the cams from"old girl" & "R"[8)]This is wot i did.Take the sprockts from old girl & fit them to nice R cams;)They run the same chain.Now some "cam timing"knowlege is an advantage here cause the markers do not line up[B)]This head i measured 2day with a "squish" of 23 thou[:0]now i have set the lump sticks to"follow"the piston`s(they dont clash in motion)New studs,over size head nuts,staino retainer`s,Three way valve seats,Flowed,knifed,top end valve springs,new guides,91/750 cams(still with machening grooves)
Hope the f@cker stay`s 2getha

[MDM]

Looking cool MM! [8D]
What chassis is that going into? Normally aspirated?
Might be worthwhile fitting a cooler too - even if it's 'only' a small cam cooler using oil feeds to rear of head...
Oh, and good luck with the 15:1 CR - gonna be fun starting that when it's stalled in hot traffic...:D

http://www.streetfighters.com.au/forum/upload/177732467239599.jpg
Chasis is 82 gsx-e with some decorations:D
I`m too stoopid to weld alloy so i chose a steel jobbie;)

[RUSS M8]

Nearly there mate, what bits ya still missin, or just hours in the day!
The lump should stay 2getha, as long as you allowed the 3 thou needed when the fluxem waves distort the "true" plane of piston/valve/valve seat relationship when >8,000 rpm.
And as long as you remembered to bolt the studs up the right way round!

oooh, put some oil init 2 :D [:p]

By now i rekon i kood knock onea these lumps 2getha with a white stick & a good dog[8D]shit i just counted them[:o)]I got 2 good dogs & THREE walking sticks.Engine is about ta go in:DAll timed & as the past reflects "Motor by Mundy";)
Ive` just named her the "Asylum"[8D]

[dazz]

this realy will be an old school fighter.
Your attention to detail is outstanding Mundy, right down to the welder used in that period;)

Long live the stick welded fighter:D

That`s a gasless mig tiger;)for $200 its not too bad:Dgot both feed & amp dials[:o)]

[pt]

like that body work. i see you have an acerbis cyclops. does it put out much light?

[damo1]

I may have missed a vital point somewhere but im seeing an awful lot of your old gixer in this thing does that mean youve retired her mate[?][:I]

PT the headlite acually works well[8D]Damo the chasis of the "perp" is at the recyclers[xx(]after finally get`n the thing rite the frame had fatiged to the piont of cracking way too much for my mind[}:)]
So the engine is in 2nite:Dgot some work to do on settings[:X]front end bias way too much[:0]so out with the tangable thought process & maybe the thing will corner.Right now it looks like drag bike bloody awsome to look at but my back is not up to that[V]No picie,no lite[8D]U`ll see 2mora;)

[Gix11]

Mundy! That thing is going to look bloody great mate.

http://www.streetfighters.com.au/forum/upload/484965442313480.jpg

That is a white band down the side and not just the way the light has caught the paint isn't it? Totally refreshing to see something like this mate. Keep it up.

[zx12argh]

mundy - that looks great - tho if I can say one thing... get a new headlight unit... It just doesn't suit it anymore mate.

otherwise i can wait to see this pup finito!

I undastand & agree;)being still in "mode" ya feed off wot ya got & i KNOW wot front i require[:p]

[hooligan]

Apart from that, i love it.

[Ed74mnd]

Hey Mundy,

you're a talented guy.. lol

i know you've prolly done this, but since you're taking the oil feed from the "cooler" ports. you must be sure to use the 1150 EFE oil filter cover. otherwise the oil will bypass your feed hoses.

Cheers

Ed

[qickdraw]

Very nice Mundy - I've only just seen this thread otherwise I would've been over to lend a hand... Give us a yell if you need an extra pair of hands or anything mayte!

Thank you for the observation ED:Dall will be revealed inn the "how to"
No probs Stu;)keep it mind:)I saw Jeff picking up the MV at ccmc & wanted to slide down the "Old road" with him but he headed off with Heather home,say next time ya speak to him see if we can get a run up the "OX"[:p]might be a story in it stead of test`s all the time;)

[BANDITROD]

[Ryan]

Mundy thats looking fantastic. And quick too! Top effort mate, will be good to hear how she runs once complete!

[damo1]

Mundy shes a fuckn little ripper i love it[:p]

Just a little critasisum the pin stripping around the body work[?]

I recon it would look better with just the thicker stip and remove the thinner one it looks a bit tacky and "super cheap auto" ish.[:0]

Sorry mate just my opinion:)which means fuck all to your bike;)

Cheer`s bloke`s[8D]I just wanna see if the battery will push the bastard[:p]Damo,i`m a f@k`d painter & shooda listen`d to me Dad."Skud`s","AMG","Alec Mildren","RR" he was head painter at we also knocked up "Law`s" fleet on the weekends[:o)]
I know your trade & wish i kood do it[:X]but i just hack:(
I may drop in 2mora[8D]

[RUSS M8]

Paintin ain't that bad, better than I could do.
Love how the seat unit and tail section work togeather, anyone would think it was factory.
I think you should just run the battery outta the HiLux in that thing, that'll get ya started :D

[BOHEMION]

Bloody top work there Mundy !!! Honestly i like the thinner stripe, kinda backs up its old skool heritage (sorry Damo) But its come together noicely

[EXBEN]

I tend to agree with Boh. Leave the stripe ............Very retro Mundy, very retro ;):D

[Iceman]

I'm with these two ^^^^^^ The twin stripe is cool.

[Gix11]

I'm there too Shaun. Good call mate, fits the era perfectly. Looking forward to seeing this one. Calendar material for sure.

[HueyonaBlade]

Magnefic Mundy , Stripe for mine sets it off , I think clips-on though for that cafe feel , maybe a project for me one day . Duck Nuts though M8........P.S. M8 is there a seat on it?

[zx12argh]

Looks like your in the minority deano [:p] I give two thumpers up for the pin stripping - great to see something fresh mundy top work!

[damo1]

[B)][:I]:D

I got out 2day on tha banana[8D]with the view to put some more mile`s on"those leathers" pushed the front & found meself at"Extreme Creation`s"
My reason was that i needed some trik bit`s ta tidy up "Asylum"
Ben had the shit;)on tha shelf & away i rode[:p]

nope not me

[loosebruce]

Looks a vision, Mundy.
7" round headlight?(I'm for a bit of nostalgia)?
What sort of science you woven into that engine?
(Science= magic that works) :)

http://www.streetfighters.com.au/forum/upload/65304390327213.jpg
I been a bit quiet of late:(gookie shit does that to me[:o)]but i have all leckie things working[:X]as you may be aware[8D]
Got spark at plugs[:p](GSX-R loom,Dyna 2000)
Wot i really need is some exhaust work[8)]
It seem`s that unless your bike has 1 piston only the current crop of F@CKING SHIT FOR BRAIN`S(& i mean SHIT)sperm stains on the other side of the counter is INABLE to process the QUESTION let alone pick the phone up[:X]
I was told that "no one does them"by Scott at "Woody`s"M.C in Wyong[|)]
No,no exhaust is made for "Katana" or "Bandit"[:o)]

OHH! he also told me to "FUCK OFF"
Now space help the ever expanding powers of the universe to anyone that believes a shiny arse like that[:X]
My advice[8D]if ya want sumfin do yaself

[Hillsy]

Even looks like you've got the sun shining out of the arse of your bike there Mundy:D:D

Good shit;)

[wackyrider]

Bike looks mad there dude.

[damo1]

[chopiesel]

[fimpBIKES]

wow, i was expecting that to be a bit more snappy :D


is the front plate just over the top of the cyclopes or did u take the cover off it and just leave the lights?

picked a great weekend to finish it mundy :(

[chopiesel]

its pissing down here.

I know Skimp[:I]but how about last weekend[:0]Yup just undid the globe braket at the back.Looks much better in front oya;)if the bike is coming at ya its very hard to tell wot the f@ck it is[}:)] all carbon

[TurboKat]

Is it a runner Mundy? Does it run yet Mundy? Have you got it going Mundy? What's it go like Mundy? [?][?][?][?][?]
Don't keep us in <s>suspenders</s> <s>suspension</s> suspense. :D

Yes it runs;)timing is cool[:p]pops a bit off idle but fixable[8D]oil leak at front of engine from studs:(two centre`s[8)]
All fixable:DTiming was the major,but[8D]
Stay tuned[^]

[RUSS M8]

Cool Shit Mate!!

Zorst looks hot, fully race :D

But it still leaks.... ride it down my way, wanna check it out :)

[HueyonaBlade]

Mundy , Im a big fan of this build M8 , but tell me you are not just sick of it and you threw that bit of ( Dog shit ) Headlight on a Cherry of a bike?

NO WAY am i sick of tha build;)the bike may not hold that front for too long[8D]but i`m look`n for that "off beat"
Cheer`s mate but at the moe I dunno[:o)]
When i do get to ride it[:p]it`s gonna be smooth[:X]

No doubt M8 , just my 20 cents

[Chris41]

Top job Mundy I am thinking that tail piece would look good on the P5 Kawi whenever it does get finished.

Chris

[zx12argh]

nice work mundy - definitely off beat... mundy - king of syncopation [:p]

Now your confusing me 12R[:o)]
I`m onto it;)see the two centre studs on "R" are wet[:I]where the "X" they are dry[8)]so when the oil gets to the top to travel back down[8D]onto the fins goes oil:(
Back to it[^]

Leak is fixed:Djust gotta rejet(in stock)bit rich[^]changed headlite slightly[:o)]big improvment,not all will like:(tuff tit`s[:0]
If i don`t get swept away tonite[}:)]i`ll post the first "smoke show" piccie`s in the morning[:o)](my neighbour`s love me)[:X]

[fimpBIKES]

Problems[8)]plugs are oiling up,difrent head gasket on order[8D]
No charge[}:)]i swapped the "R" loom to the "X" bike subsequently the fuse map was diff[xx(]
All good,i had worse than this[:p]
She revs up nicely[:X]bit loud tho[:0]
