Re: Oil leaks 89 900 ss

The bike will be back from auto spark this week ,the only other thing I need to do is address aoli leak coming from the clutch cover :banghead: I'm guessing I must have got the main seal wrong, didn't see that coming and I hope it's as simple as stripping and changing that seal. I'm also wondering i...

Re: Oil leaks 89 900 ss

Thanks for the positive feedback, as far as transferring bits to the new tank , I used a new black rubber flange seal under the fuel cap, original stainless screws as I couldn't locate and purchase new ones. A new crush washer under the tap post. The original green seal with the pump / sender attach...

Re: Oil leaks 89 900 ss

I had to go with silver plated fixings on the fairings as I so far haven't been able to find any black anodised screws

Re: Oil leaks 89 900 ss

I went with the later model 900 ss mirrors, I think they might be more functional and look pretty right, swapped the fuel tank internals to the freshly painted tank as well.

Re: Oil leaks 89 900 ss

I have been busy reworking the paint and happy to say it's probably more of a 95% on a bad day now so I will bolt her up and put the indicators on, I might just put the original mirrors on as they're in excellent condition. Hopefully she'll be rideable very soon, I'll post some updated photos soon a...

Re: Oil leaks 89 900 ss

Thanks randtcastell, the paint is at best 90% atm so I may revisit some panels in the near future or after my next surgery. I'm keen to fit the nos indicators and finish her up but I'm guessing I'll backtracking a little on the painting, I have a spare set of decals. The 2 big fairings are sweet, as...
