Ouch!! I didn't pay anything like that...

I blame the bankers!!

I may well have a set. I'll dig them out of the shed and check the condition for you. I was keeping them as spares, but I'm going with NC30 forks on the front soon. So can keep one set of standard forks as spares.

The real issue is the shape of the pipes themselves, rather than the cans. I've heard people say that gutting the pipes themselves can yield performance gains, but it's quite a job. I have Jollymotos on mine and they make a big difference. I'd suggest that there's little point in drilling the airbox...

Jollymotos may actually work out cheaper in the long run, but I haven't looked to see what they're going for recently and the exchange rate doesn't help...

They certainly work.

I thought SEP in Kegworth were able to successfully rebuild cranks without OEM seals, but I may have got that wrong. Memory is not what it used to be...

Those will be the same ones - they're a fair diameter, but very light, so need no support.

DEP did some, but I never thought they looked too good. They were relatively cheap though. I've got a set that I think were originally 'Beckett' but have since been badged as other manufacturers, but as far as I know they're not still made. Your best bet may be Nigel Kimber http://www.nkracing.co.uk...

I'm in. Will need them sooner or later...

I've PM'd you my e-mail address.

Now on ebay:

Its quite tricky when you're trying to measure to an 'edge' rather than a 'surface'...

Anyway, with my failing eyesite and cheap calipers, I made it 22.1mm. The dome adds another 8mm.

Just don't make expensive decisions based on those figures!

For a bore of 57mm, you could go for a +1mm DT125R (the late model). Got one sitting in my kitchen if you want me to take any measurements.

That looks good... Any more pics of how the engine has been mounted? Any major problems along the way?

Cheers
