Got another step closer this weekend with the arrival of an billet offset front sprocket, and a blank rear sprocket. The front needs a bigger offset and a shorter nose than my current one, as the back wheel is wider necessitating the chain being further out to one side. The rear sprocket is also larger than the one i use at the moment to make up for the increase in tyre diameter from 26" to 28".
Same as the last time i bought a blank sprocket as it's a lot cheaper than having one machined to suit, and it only takes a bit of working out and an hour or so on the mill to do myself. And besides the mill needs to start earning it's keep!
A fuel tank is next on my list of things to make, I've been experimenting with large bore fuel taps and made up a 4 way splitter to feed the carbs. It'll need 2 taps altogether, one for the nitrous side and one for the carbs. It's not as nice as a pingel tap but probably flows the same and cost 10x less.
