Chat to Scooter Paul, I am pretty sure he recently mentioned having a few bits and pieces including a seat.

Thanks for the thought but all Dakar parts sold except two original exhaust shields. I have other G/S parts but they’ll be advertised later.
 
Well I’m suffering from DHL’s unwillingness to deliver parts from Germany as others are. But a few home grown bits landed thanks To Richard Moore, which meant I could build up the short engine over the break.

Round the other side, a new chain, sprockets and tensioners. And a new oil pump behind all that.

Con rods in (thanks Richard) - with new shells onto the new crank.

Hopefully the last time we’ll see this for a while
(It’s the camshaft btw)

Thermostat for the oil cooler, and Siebenrock sump extender goes on. Not terribly impressed with the extender fit, and compared to Mikeyboy’s sump plates this looks almost fragile.

Now I’m waiting for extended drive shaft, extended swing arm, and a few other parts from Richard, the frame from the welders, and a few bits from Germany.

Until next time ...

Seat and rack arrived from Germany - that’ll be recovered with blue/white alcantara.

Lowered foot pegs have arrived. I DO NOT want to catch my shins in these boys!
