Finished mocking up the throttle bracket. Finally came up with something that could clear the pipes. Just a quick mock up using some scrap I had, if it holds
together over the weekend I'll get some stock and make a cleaner version. It mounts directly to the carb mount with 2 8x3/16 bolts. Pretty happy with the
way it came out. The angle is just a bit too steep, and I think the cable will rub too much on the housing, but it should work for the weekend, and the
finished product will have a bit more bend to it.
) then the pissers. Backed off and
looked back to check and then 2nd one was dry. Killed it pulled the seat, and my silver pipe was golden brown. Melted the rubber cooling hose on the inlet.
And melted a piece of rubber I stick between the 2nd and 3rd pipe. The rubber is now one with the pipe. The good news is, the clamp on the 2nd cylinder head
broke and the cooling line blew off, so the engine was fine, it was getting plenty of water. Don't know about the pioe. Happened late in the evening so
haven't looked into it. Hopeing its ok, the paint only bubbled up around the neck and the first turn of the pipe. The rest of the pipe was still cool
(probably still had water in it)
