thought of what? your project is coming along nicely
I'd have been inclined to fit a new clutch plate (depending on the thickness of the existing). I can't see you wanting to get back in there, even in a year or so from now!
Hi thanks for the compliment /cencern/advice. . My "new big foot " is 5mm plate.. (measured under chequor) my pictures are as bad as my writing as you say I can always "add on" tho I was thinking more of thick rubber. . Time will tell.I take my hat off to you. Amazing job. Keep up with the updates
One thought on that big foot. Hard to see clearly in your pictures, but it looks quite thin? I'm wondering if you might want to add to it by screwing on another plate under it? It's just that they do deform...

Cheers Karl sadly I had spoked wheels with rusty spokes.. now I have very expensive powder coated wheels n hubs with stainless spokes. . I need to save money. . The costs are spirallingBrilliant job, I did this with an R1100RS SE in the depths of February and March last year. As you say you need to be careful as your wallet can run dry very quickly with bits here and there. Unfortunately I needed new forks swing arm etc, I found e bay de a really good cheap source. You may think at times it is never ending but the engine looks superb. If you have silver cast wheels, the wurth silver paint is an excellent match, you can buy it on e bay uk.
Excellent work so far.
I had them soaking in acid for a while (left over from cleaning my tank) they came out nice and clean. the sensible thing would have been to put them in the shed with all the other cleaned bits.. But I suffer from not listening to my own good advice and ended up buffing them (I have a crappy bench mounted buffer) I wasn't looking for a mirror finish so didn't start with the "coarse" compound just used the "finishing" compound and have regretted it ever since.. I might re do them ..
The picture is a little misleading. Sounds like it'll be just fine and besides, you have plenty of room to screw something onto it if needed.Hi thanks for the compliment /cencern/advice. .

For the clutch, I'd still fit a new one. But I'm like that. I guess it just means you know what you have in there. But sounds like you've gone for the idea anyway
Keep it coming. I just haven't got the time to do something like these jobs, so I'm living vicariously through everyone else's projects on here
When I can get some more road orientated tyres, I will have a set of lightly used TKC80s up for grabs - how anyone can ride with them on the road I have no idea! I have done maybe 500 miles on them and I can't stand the hum, nor can I get used to the feel - but everyone I talk to says they are brilliant. I just don't like them.
