Looking good , I have long cables on the 750 starters, don't know if they can be pulled out or disconnected?  They may be just a tad shorter as they are behind the  cylinder . .?

Thanks, Frank.

The starters on the 750 and 450 are shorter, as the starters are behind the engine....likely about a foot.  I'll wait on the one from Georgia.   Dang Christmas shipping.

  There is a place in Langley, on the bypass, that rents, their high quality blasters. I use their walnut shell blasters, magnificent job!

Hello Boys,

Sorry to have been gone from the site for so long.  We were living in Golden for about 5 years, and moved down to Langford at the beginning of December.  I’m looking forward to the longer riding season.

My son is doing up a 1982 Yamaha XT550 that he just bought.  Does anyone have a lead on a good fuel tank for it?

I have been working on another dirt bike project, a 78 Suzuki RM400. The brake pedal tip was broken of so I buggered around and built a new one.
