I see youre also running a threaded rod through the rear spindle with cotton reel bobbins on the end so you can use with a rear pop up stand...One of the later Vdues? With SB6 front forks and yokes and black carrier front discs....when Piero was running out of parts to complete bikes...? I never recall...is the swingarm with no cotton bobbins the SB8 swingarm...or is it the vdue one original with swingarm bobbins already on the swingarm???

Oh Welcome Back Vort28...father of Vort 28-2....has RLJ blocked Vort 28-2 but now you can get back on with Original Vort??

This is my creation to remove the clutch cover more easily without having to use the sealing paste

yes I copied the external shape, and then I marked all the screw holes ..... then I created the inner edge with pc ..... the gasket has been cut with precision plotter, I have also created the water pump gasket because it no longer has any Piero

I decided to want to repair the spare twin fairings, in its most delicate points .... I used a thin metal plate 0.6 mm and I shaped it ready to be glued

If it were me, I would have reinforced it with fiberglass and filled the cracks with resin.

I worked for a few years with racing motorboats and I learned to work with carbon, using fiberglass could be an alternative ...... I preferred the metal track to give it a more elegant look, I didn't want it to look like a normal fairings straight and repaired quickly .... the well-shaped metal workmanship gives a nice professional look to working on the fairings

There is a company in Italy that makes fibreglass replacement panels...I've seen them and they are very good examples...come un painted....but it would stop the cracking...more "flexible" than the ages plastic that cracks....AND...they've redesigned the front end so that nasty thin strip of plastic that cracks and breaks under the headlight is no longer needed...Really though...Mr Caronni should be getting some more Carbon panels made up....they are also very nice
