There is a link in post 95 but I forgot this was the pipe and slippers club so it's not that clear.

How cool is that, they take photo's of their bits on your bedroom carpet, and then post it on their website

I know lots of sites where people take pictures in the bedrooms and post them on the internet
Of course this is not one of them.
Anyway things are progressing, got the bodywork and guards back from the painters and all now fitted to the bike.
I'm biased here but combined with the Acerbis brush guards (half the price of TT guards, same manufacturer but without the TT badges) I'm well pleased with the result.
Really getting into these airheads. Of course I'm spoiled having a pair of PD's but for those non PD moments there's always this.
I'd love to take either of them off ya hands should you ever feel "Airhead'd out"
Top job there sir, you deserve a large beer

it doesnt look like you've got more than one brake caliper go between them.
Probably been sent of to be chromed
Too much white can look too dull
thats a lot of beemers for one man, it doesnt look like you've got more than one brake caliper go between them.
OOOOOOO Bitchy
He's got 2 fully functioning twin disc set ups, I'd just like one 2 disc set up.
Having Helped Roger source and get these two beauties, i am now green with envy
They look absolutely FANTASTIC and unlike 1200's will never go down in price.
For eg>> a tank sold on German ebay last week for 545 euros and it was RUSTY inside..

Well spotted
Calipers are off the Gambia bike being cleaned as I'm fitting a new set of brake hoses. The other bike will be having it's second caliper fitted over the holidays using the brake lines from the Gambia bike.
Complicated or what

So what did you do on Chrimbo Eve?
Well I spent an hour or two with thefreshly painted HPN tank and the cheap decals from Italian Ebay.
Of course the tank had been allowed to cure for awhile and I have not fitted the original BMW side foils until I get the tank fitted to the bike with the elusive tank fitting kit but the result so far are pleasing to me to say the least!
Lets see what the audience think

they look lovely. what hoses do you use, do you split one into two or get a different master cylinder and does it actually stop now with twin discs. been driving around quite bit briskly recently and it really would be better if i could stop when i want.

Stop? Dear Gawd yes it stops with the twin disks! The bike which I call The Gambia bike came with a fully operational twin disk set up using a 15mm brake cylinder instead of the O/E 13mm feeding a splitter which then fed two lines down to the calipers.
The other bike came with twin calipers but only the original right side connected.
I contacted Venhill engineering and sourced a new splitter and lines with all fittings in stainless for the Gambia bike and intend to fit it's system to the other bike (confusing isn't it
).More than happy to post the final specification for lines and components if it would be of interest, just let me know.
