    Looks like a pretty simple conversion from the old ball bearings ... not a big deal anyway as it will only need to turn in the pits

    MotoGP bikes run ball bearings, saw a picture of it on MotoMatters, or at least one of them does. I think it was the Honda.

    The great thing about stripping something right down is you can clean and fix everything to your satisfaction. The bad thing is that if you are a nutjob like me, nothing is ever to your satisfaction.

    I think this one covers it all ... one of my most favoured songs and funnily enough just played on the internet radio while I was out in the shed earlier

    Nice to have many many boxes of parts and bits ... but what a nightmare having to find certain 1 purpose nuts and bolts ... thankfully theres still a half complete bike in the scrapyard to rob from ... needs dismantling anyway :D

    hopefully I can get it to a roller with little or no cost
