wtf is that? :)

eccentric adjuster for the swing arm angle... so you can get the geometry perfect for your use... you continue to amaze me with your ingenuity.

they dont align because this was the old design.

Since you're getting rid of that, you have to promise me that you'll duplicate the quality of the finish on that weld in at least one other place on the finished product.

this guy says "maybe" as if his drive for clean projects would allow him not to lol

Nibor

maaate! seriously, you have some bloody decent talent. if you can and are interested, maybe look at a few little side projects like triples and stuff, people on here really are interested in them and you will make money. money for parts, parts for monster  ;D

Tucker! I have a small (maybe not too small) request.  I have a 696 and as we all know, it uses a wet clutch system.  I am tinkering with the idea of a clear cover so i can see the splash.  perhaps a riveted  or seal with small bolts.  Some kind on metal on the outer lip and a bored hole in the middle (perhaps 5" radius) where a clear cover would go held by rivets or a washer-like seal on the out lip of the clear cut-out material.  Obviously this clear plastic would be slightly smaller than 5" radius to allow some kind of washer application to prevent a leak.  Am i making any sense and if so, is this possible?
(not considering a dry conversion cuz i rather not have to deal with the sound it makes)  Thanks m8

Yep, possible.

For KTM at least. . .

I searched the web and ebay and found nothing. I even searched the UK hosted site.  Perhaps the listing has ended

same with me but i think we are just searching for the wrong thing... can some one throw up a link to the ebay listing please
it is so much easier to get forgiveness then it will ever be to get permission.
