the pipe is fixed. .. the tank has dings .. but now it’s good will post pic later

I've been following the thread lol. Hey, do you happen to know what forks fit the FS1/GS6/7??????? (edited)

i did buy that same cover took 8 weeks to get here :) .. it’s not as good as it looks in the pics .. i used a lot of filler to smooth it out .. but for the price it will do .. the other side cover i paid 170 pounds about $180 ..

holy shit as soon as they hit e bay UK they sell for lots .. and most of them guys will not ship to the usa ..

in 1976 i paid 169 pounds to buy a brand new fs1e i worked on the rail way at 16 it was 3 weeks pay ..they sold for about 200 to 240 but a big dealer had like 200 lined up for a R plate blow out .

back then the last letter of the tag was the year of the bike .. August 1st new plate letter came out . R so lots of folk hold off mid summer buying to get the new plate ??

so cash in hand i got a deal .. and now i pay the same for one side cover :)

OH the forks ? well seems i know as much as you fs1 and g7. g6. g5 seem to be the same .. but i’m sure there on lots more 70s yams

so there ya go ... got some turn signals all old stuff for a great low price ...oh and a pic of a country fucker Nat , with his blue pinstripe.. don’t think he has it now

as he would say from that area

Oooo rrrr

it’s as nice as me mums tractor .. only blue :)

yes i can say that i’m on the usa

one handed with a cell phone

well the RD50 sold in the UK was available with nice mags and disc brakes .. they fit right on .. and guys use them on the FS1e

I really like that blue .

Definitely an eye catcher and the bit of sparkle just ads a tickle to the flavor . ;)

I updated the ignition/electrical to Hpi mini with floated ground, reg/rec, 12v flasher relay, 12v hybrid power cap battery, sub ohm ignition coil, and the 300gram flywheel weight.

I know the hpi isn't new to anyone but, Huge upgrade all around and would recommend to fizzy people. Starts first kick idles low and smooth. Easier adjustable timing/lower temps.

I sell meat products:) .. i did that paint with spray cans made up at a auto body paint shop .. Can use a spray gun but i do a great job with theses cans .. the mix they do sets up in a snap no runs even if i spray in close

well the bars and rear fender came in so put them on ,, still haven’t dropped the cylinder off to punch out to 44mm need to do that motors ready to go in .. getting the shop to skim the clutch down so i can run an extra clutch plate ..

bloody expensive... not paying that

You could ask these guys if they have one.

well got the cylinder bored to 44mm for 42 mm witch is already bigger than the stock 40mm :) and i have 42mm crank not the 39.5 stock one .

So fitted the piston and cylinder.. the head was cut out to 44mm also

modified the clutch to 3 plate .

well on the way now lads .

so all wired up other than the tail light .. got SPARK.. that’s a big deal :)

I think with in 7 days i will fire it up ..

I did a mild port job after these pics . lifted the exhaust port 2mm and opened and raised the boat ports at the back 5mm

then knife edge the bottom to match crank case
