Nice pair ! A 916 or variation of is one of the few bikes I could see myself pairing with the 900SL / exchanging for. The simplicity of the...
I swithered a little when I did a rebuild a couple of years ago following engine problems as to going standard or uprated (944, flatslides etc)...
I don't have knowledge of these but I don't think they are particularly well regarded. The ones fitted to yours are flatslides now?
Just checked mine where it's currently residing, similar to many others at this time, under a cover in the garage. It's #056, a Superlight V....
Personally I look forward to the 44teeth videos and the BBB ones have generally been really enjoyable. Episodes here and there, eg the previous...
y, not there yet, that top coat is pretty tough - makes sense as it provides protection to the paint beneath. My mudguard is stamped "MS...
Bit more of this today- have flatted back pretty much the whole thing - advice would be to not try and do more than than unless.the top.coat is...

Lovely bike, looks like you got a great deal, well jealous! Bit surprised it still starts, sitting on that mat tho' .... :)
Y, the early shiny ones are a more brittle (think that's the appropriate terminology) metal, later black ones are not prone to breaking.
I'm now 52 and reckon I'm pretty fit still. For about 20 years or so, up to aged 46 I cycled almost every day, averaging around 100 miles/week...
Looks to be all there although I think it's a bike needing a fair bit of time spent on it to get it up to a good standard. Got Termis and Dymags...
I wonder if, due to the flooding caused by the carb issue whether the oil might have been 'diluted' by fuel dumped into it ? If this is a...
