So. Back @work! Different name, but still the same...

I managed to bring the circuit of the forward brakelight-switch back to work...
So i disasembled the cans, tank, fork, and so on again.

Tomorrow we are going to carry it up from the basement in the garden for final assembly...

Thank you very much, guys. The next 2 weeks i will be off, preparing my impriso... ehm...wedding.
After that i will reopen the wiring harness to find the forward brake-switch issue. But then the final assembly can be started.

I have still an issue with the wiring of the forward brake-light-switch, but the whole rest of the harness works fine.

And i could not resist. I had to try.

I live 100km away from Lübeck, at the baltic sea, too. I like the handling of the 907 very much, maybe because of my length & weight (2.12m & 110kg). So the only option was the stronger motor. But the 4V-engines do not fit that well, the casing & tank have to be heavily modified. Cross y...

Why do you think you would have a better running gear? :-)

Visit me in Germany when the bike is ready. I think that one will be good enough for me...

We have 30 letters. After the Z there come ß, Ä, Ö, Ü

I think the Ö or ö is a german invetion

Welcome in the madhouse!

There are very nice mufflers for the Paso available. For example the Conti-cans. i like them most. I think there is a cheap brand new pair on ebay Australia available from time to time...

Cheers, Johannes

With the new zinc-plated bottom-screws for my M1R-fork (seemingly unobtainable screeewwwws...), i could start w. the assembly of the fork. I needed some days before i found out, why the rebound was so slow. The short powerful spring in the right tube blocked a hole in the tube... I painted the legs ...

Thats what these unique mirrors look like now. I like it:

Both mirrors were broken. 15042012870.JPG The mirror-parts are unobtainable, exept the whole assembly. Noone here in northern germany was able to supply these pulvinate mirror-glasses, that i could change them for myself. On saturday i stumbled over a pair of mirrors by accident. 10€ each. The mirro...

Important: The decals.

I received my zinc-plated swingarm bolts and some other parts last week. 11042012836.JPG So i started with the (4th) reassemblyof the swingarm & rear monoshock. 11042012841.JPG The new mudguard, etc... All parts, screws, bolts, nuts, plastic & rubber parts are new, new zinc-plated or painted...

And here the result: Then is was the headers` turn. They are good, but not good looking and too much heat emitting on the reat Wilbers damper and also heating up the space in the fairing.
Thats why i wrapped them in ceramic fiber cloth:

Just giving a short status w. some pictures. I did a little progress the last days. My exhaust cans are ready. The old titanium tubes had dents and were not nice looking any more. I replaced them w. carbon fibre tubes. I tried some hours to get the damn thing open, after drilling the rivets nothing ...
