Yet a café racer & vielen dank for a great site!

Hi,

Have used this site a lot and just wanted so say that it's a great source for information and inspiration regarding the TR1 bike! Good work Manfred & Co! Smiley

Also posting a few pic's on my ongoing project and a link below to a swedish forum with a (loong) thread for the project... Latest idea is to add 16" spoked wheels...

Cheers!

Wheel upgrade done and engine renovated Smiley

Question: Does anyone know where to find camshafts and rockers arms for a reasonable price? Will need to shift them sooner or later.

Just the original TR1 frontlight Smiley Might look a bit different since I cleaned off everything around it + lowered it + 16" / 130 tyre at the front... but still just the original light.

But good that you think it looks big 'cause that's the purpose  Wink

Okay, i have forgot, how big the Light is ...  Grin Grin Grin it looks in this position different  Grin Grin

Yes, your frontweel looks also great, but we here in Germany, will have a lot of Problem with "Technical Monitoring Association for Vehicles", its call TÜV  Roll Eyes, they dont like technological changes at vehicles, and when, then only with a lot of evidence and discusion whit the Technical Monitoring Association  Angry
My luck its, that my Bike its so odl, an my chances also, that they says nothing more, because all this chances are made in the 80´teen of last centuri  Grin Grin

Wink Yes, it's a bit easier with modifications on bikes here in Sweden.

Noone who has tips regarding to camshafts/rocker arms? I was hoping to find a good & cheap source in Germany... Smiley

Thanks Odin!

I got the advice to also check the possibility to renovate the ones I got, apparently that's possible in some cases. Will check that with some local motor repair shops.
