Magnificent 7

30 s in front. 25 m in back change for later rears cna have 30s in back also. Note using rear HVA backing
plate nice he has a 30mm wide option and posts are wider. Nice product option

Seems like the 30s for year used the backing plate with needle bearing in it. hate the internal space on that style. Most huskies i have a seen thei best days gone by.

Worth the money for Andy's plate - nice bearing in that plate he has both 25 and 30 rears

Ok great! Thanx for info. I kept thinking 25's go up front and 30's were rear. Maybe that was a jap thing.

Makes sense and they all match up except the XC 125 one and has 30 rear. But someone could of switched a front plate to rear. Unless they came that way.
But the rear had a set of grenaded shoes and springs.

All I need are two springs. See if I can cross over to spring Mc master carr has.

I got plenty of shoes hardly worn, just need cleaned up. So good here.

Yeah would like to get few of Andy's rear plates but I have few bux in all these machines. Plus, I got a lot more I have to dump in these.

Just original mikuni rebuild parts for all the carbs are $500. I will not go with chinese knock off stuff. I want these spot on when they fire and don't want to mess with stuck floats or needles and seats not sealing. Sorry, I'm picky about doing things right and not taking shortcuts, or I won't do it.

So last night I got my 500 pipe down from the ceiling. It was right beside the cone pipe I made for my 390. Thought ? Boy ! Those look awful close. So, I want to see how it goes on and the fitment, when the cylinder gets tighten down. But it fit the 500 last night and looks bad ass on it! So, guess it looks like I'm back in cone pipe building again.
Noticed my 430 pipe has a pin hole rust spot in it and I want to make one for the 83 Cr 250, as well or use it on the fox bike.

 

[dartyppyt]

Yeah, think I gotta make a pipe for this bike.

That's the 390 one that almost fits

 

[dartyppyt]

When you look at it! Still lots of work! If I was smart I should part all these out on Ebay. I'd get more out of them then they will ever be worth.........

I can see it now, "pipes by Darrin". I'm sure you could sell quite a few of them on cafe husky alone. Make one of them out of stainless.

Hmmmm? Let me think about the stainless and price it.

OBD,

So far running the numbers, 304 Stainless and accessories (mounts,springs,etc) would run approx 3 times the amount.

So it would be an expensive pipe to build but it would look cool. I think I got a tube of stainless rod in my shop.

This would kinda be the looks if didn't polish it.

So would it look good on the 500 or just a reg steel pipe, blued with gear oil?

 

[eddychecker]

If you were to make it out of SS, leaving it as welded looks fantastic.

 

[dartyppyt]

Well, steel it is. There is a piece I would need and it is out for production of approx 3 weeks.

I will build basically the same pipe in couple weeks for the 430, so might be able to swap them if I do one in stainless.

Nothin seems easy anymore!

 

[dartyppyt]

I've got plenty to keep me hoppin next week, since I'm off.

 

[oldbikedude]

The blued steel looks great. Cost to me is a big deal, but I'll spend your money for ya.

Thanx! Yeah! See what I can pull off in few weeks.

Guess I'm doing more stainless coffee mugs! This for another old friend. He started racing on the TM's.

So doing this in gun kote. Suzuki sunrise on one side then front number plate sticker on the back.

 

[dartyppyt]

Went back with torch and added more purples and gold in the bluing.

Can't tell much in pic but turned out good and pipe is on.

She gonna look snazzy......

 

[dartyppyt]

Rarrrrrrrr!

Even made the welds look like it was a home made pipe back in day so welds didn't look like a machine did them. It actually took me longer.

See the comparison.

 

[dartyppyt]

OBD?

Did yu mum teach u how to tie yu shoes?

Well, did she ever tell you not to throw out old shoe boxes?

Working on a box of cleaned up, still good shoes.....

Teadious work but that saves $100 buxabiker.

 

[dartyppyt]

4 tirdy head!

Plus, how did I get into coffee mugs and beer coolers!

 

[oldbikedude]

You are an amazing artist. My son has a 78 GS750 Suzuki and likes your rising sun mug.

Thanx! I like that coffee mug as well, since I started racing on a TM100, back in the day.

The GS 750 is a classic. I saw a few of them at Mid Ohio.
