Hey guys
I have actually been doing some work on my 79 and thought i would share some progress pics.
first I am fitting a TT600 swingarm and rather than buy thrust washers I thought I would make my own so these are them I made them in aluminium as a trial and now that I can see they work I will machine up some bronze ones.
I also took a trip out to Earls performance and bought all the bits for my braided lines so here is the finally finished front brake setup.
Then some pics of the swingarm bolted up, ignore the crappy hardware store galvanised bolts these were just for the fitup. I decided to make the shock mounts so that I could change the ride height that is why there are two hole the rear hole is standard height and the front is about 25mm higher.
Next job is to finalise the wheel spacing and get some new sprockets and chain but that will have to wait a couple of months as we are about to move interstate and have bought a new house so I have a few jobs lined up with that.
Cheers
Rich
