Bit of a long shot I know,but maybe someone has a barn full of late A65 parts? They are for my "Oil In Frame" projects,but anything considered Specifically,I'm after: A race tank Trident/Commando/Norvil twin disc front end,either parts or complete I will pay cash of course or I have odds and sods to sell/trade/swap: Size 56 Wolf retro one-piece leathers,as new/with tags Kawa H1 expansion chambers,used Yamaha 125,(AS1?) race seat Corbin seat for Triumph Sprint ST/RS 955i ST2 standard seat,one tiny nick in the cover 750SS std cans Or swap for a complete bike,(A50 or A65) 1971 Kawa 350 S2 project,motor is rebuilt but chassis stripped Collection/delivery no problem,as stated previously anything considered
got a 71 lightning that has been sitting in a shed for the best part of 20 years and have a nos bonnie front end to go with it but neither it nor the disc front end is for sale - bonnie front ends are readily available on flea bay as are the twin disc other fork leg, however 4 piston performanace machine calipers bolt straight onto the single disc forkleg Norvil also sell a 12" floating disc rotor and the adadter plate to move the caliper out to suit, seriously apart from looks the claimed 53hp (same as a 600 monster) from the a65 probably doesn't need twin discs
I'm hoping for a tad more than 53bhp when the motors been to SRM for a 750 top end,and I recall the disc on my Trident was bloody hopeless,(not even as good as the TLS stopper on my T500!). I've got a search set up on ebay but not as common as you might think ,been looking for a few weeks but apart from a set of Commando single disc legs nothing suitable so far.I try to avoid buying new on principle,( VAT is the most evil of all taxes!) I was talking to a bloke on Gumtree who had everything I wanted but then went quiet and not heard from him again...bah! I live in hope..........
I'd like an earlier pre-OIF,ideally around a 69' with THE best looking TLS brake ever made imho.Nowhere near as good as the Fontana 4LS on my old H1 triple but much better looking.But I already have the OIF so I want to work with what I have.Just got a period full 3 piece fairing with the perspex headlamp cone,(still got the original Rivetts price sticker on!) Might have to bite the bullet and buy the AirTech GRP tank,but the shipping/etc is hideous from the US. Aaaah Devimead....theres a name from the past...
