Just rebuilt the Bellagio after my crash
Thought i would post some photos up
Still a few jobs i need to do ,But the bike is ready for its inspection now.
The Rev counter came with Temp readouts anyway.So it was a case of find a place that they my be usefull.
Airbox to see the ambiant air temp going in the engine,And the head to see what the temp goes up to.
Just a bit of fun really.
On the rev i fitted the rev counter has two temp sensors
One i screwed into the airbox for seeing the air temp going into the box.the other is in the head by the standard ECu temp.The hottest i have seen the head so far is 135C stuck in traffic.
THE BELLAGIO BASH 2011
After some deliberation on dates (mainly around the Bank Holiday weekend at the end of August) I have pleasure announcing the details as follows;
The date Sunday 21st August 2011
The place Little Chef
London...
We fitted some of these to a mates Triumph ,The baffles are more of a straight through type.They are a bit loud on full chat.You can see daylight no problem.
I know Corsa Italiana's bikes and really like the look.I think i will go with the 80 profile tyre.To be honest the handling of the bike bike far exceeds my skills.So a little off the edge will not bother me.
Worse thing that could happen is i have to buy a 70 profile tyre.
this is my bike at...
I dont want to have a big gap between the mudguard and the wheel.i am having the alloys mirror finished.
And dont want a trails bike look lol.Hence the slightly taller tyre.
By going to the 17 inch rim i lose 12.5 a side or under the mudguard.The 80 profile gives me 10mm back.
On the Bellagio the standard front is a 120-70-18 metzler
My new wheel is a 17inch rim Alloy Recommended tyre 120-70-17
So i am thinking to keep the look of the bigger tyre what would happen if i went to a 120-80-17 Metzeler ME 880 Marathon Touring Front Tire
Would i screw up the handling.
