What cams were they?

In the early 80's Andrews had some 2x and 8x grinds where the sprocket flange mount bolt holes were drilled of center. A small piece of the flange would break off.

They were STD Kawasaki MK2 cams.
With all the mods, bored out carbs etc i thought it wise to start with the std ones so there weren't too many changes fighting each other when initially setting it up.
Once i get the head welded and sorted i'm dropping in the Norris one's i bought.

Engine all back together, it started first kick and ticks over nicely.
It is running in the pic honest!
A little smokey on the over run but that should clear after a few miles ( if it doesn't then those cheap replacement rings are rubbish and i'll be inserting a set of wiseco's).
Had a short 10mph ride along the path and my fulcrum clutch works real well with it biting around half way in the lever travel with one finger operation.

A few pic's of the wiring etc I was gonna post before the camshaft incident.

Simple wiring in the tail with main fuse on insulated spades

[img


Dyna coils converted to spade fittings with screwed on surface mounts
[img


Rest of the wiring , horn and reg/rec just fits under the tank

Riders eye view of the Danmoto speedo. It's very clear but couldn't get a decent shot with the camera.

Just a few snagging jobs to do, a rear guard for the carbs, a bit of paint here and there and apart from sorting the jetting etc it's done :D

Really sorry about the engine problems. No one wishes that kind of thing on any one. Especially with the hours into your bike.

zed,
break looking bike. I am glad you got her sorted out and running, hopefully the weather breaks so you can get some riding in.

I sent you a pm about your carb boring mods.

THanks
MAtt
