    Hey Delboy
    After seeing your limited space and the amazing way you use it, I quit excuses and started a chopper build. I bought an ‘02 Sportster 1200. Thanks for the inspiration. I look forward to your videos and really appreciate the detail you put into your explanation. Pitstop Penny does a great job behind the camera. Kudos to y’all!!

      Thank you so much for your faith Brother, good luck with the Sportster build, i have a great contact for chopper parts and fabrication stuff that you may want to outsource, just let me know and im happy to pass it on..i want photos along the way if you have the time, just an update to the Facebook page will do.. i love to follow other guys builds.. Good luck again, take care and have a great weekend.. Del.

    Del, could I suggest you invest in a cheap ioniser? They're only about £30, and their job is to drop the dust out of the air. Lot of people have them in houses, especially if they're asthmatic (which is how I know about them), but they do a fantastic job of clearing dust out of the air. Not only would it clear the air quicker after abrasion jobs, you could bung it on a few hours before you start painting to reduce airborne motes, switch it off while you're painting obviously. Just a thought. Great vid as always

      @@Moonfleet41 No, Harley had a big twin that had two rocker covers with rubber "D" shaped rings. the middle caste aluminum "D" ring sat on the main rocker box assembly with a rubber gasket that sealed the top cover. The middle "D" ring when they first came out would warp and splash oil for the rocker arms would leak because of the of the warpage and Harley had to pay to replace the "D" ring with a better one. It was pain to get everyone all aligned right before torquing down '95 and up for a few years.

    Hey Del, like the direction you're going👍
    On the rocker covers, might not be applicable in this build, but what I've done in the past with chromed aluminium casings is taken them to an electroplater/chromer and had the chrome removed electrochemically - basically the reverse process of applying the chrome. Cost peanuts, the aluminium casting comes out as the day it was cast, which then gives you the option of polishing the ali to whatever gloss level you like, instead of painting it. Personally, not a huge fan of chrome, but I do adore satin or polished ali casings , especially on vintage bikes.

    • @Moonfleet41
      @Moonfleet41  5 років тому

      Good plan buddy.. but there isn't a platers anywhere near me, and im on a deadline (self inflicted admittedly), so this is the quickest option for now.... but ill remember that maybe if i do the primary case later on.. thats massive and still don't have a plan for that... toying with the idea of a belt driven primary, but just can't afford it yet.!

    • @norbertr823
      @norbertr823 5 років тому

      Moonfleet41 Yeah belt drive would be sweet but $$$$. That primary cover is an acre of chrome, certainly would look nice plain ali IMO 👊

      Hi Jeff.. is that those little tapered tubes that take up the end float.. i think i read about those, it will reduce it a bit.. but half of the rocker noise comes from end float on the rocker itself, and you need that for heat expansion... This bike had a massive list of mods and upgrades by the previous owner, including new primary and secondary cam chain tensioners, new chains, and a pair of SE 203 cams, plus roller tappets.. so ill take a good look at the invoices i have and see if he maybe had them done with all tat lot already before i go ordering them..!! thanks for the nudge mate.. have a good weekend..

    • @Moonfleet41
      @Moonfleet41  5 років тому

      Not yet buddy.. gonna visit the guy at the wrapping company and check out the incredible range of options,, i have a loose idea.. but ill let them inspire me..!

      @T1NY85 5 років тому

      Its a really hard decision, ive been thinking about it on my impreza but been looking at colours and i just cant decide. At this rate i'll probably just get a blow over in original colour which is a rare shade anyway

    • @Moonfleet41
      @Moonfleet41  5 років тому

      No book is overkill, any technical data in invaluable because it serves as peace of mind for that 70mph thrash up the road and you know it wont fall apart.lol! Haynes are really well laid out and often a lot more "to the point" than a genuine HD manual.. but the factory books carry data that Haynes don't bother with.. maybe you wont use it.. but if you ever need to.. then its there aye,!

    Hi,nice job Del. Sorry to disturb you, I provably missed it but what kind of disc have you been using with the grinder ?? thanks for the video and have a good weekend. Gus

    • @Moonfleet41
      @Moonfleet41  5 років тому

      Hi Gus.. the discs are like a regular flap disc for sanding metal.. but the flaps are made from scoth pad material... like these.. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DRONCO-NON-WOVEN-POLISHING-FLAP-DISCS-115MM-4-5-FINE-BLUE-GREEN/113082815803?hash=item1a5442d53b:m:m8g7pojDlTsccWGEl9RXeog:rk:3:pf:1&var=413421397125&frcectupt=true
      I used the red, medium grade for sanding back the chrome, it leaves a great scuffed finish ready for painting..
      Hope that helps you out. have a good weekend.. Del.

      Just blacking out the big areas of chrome to take away the slightly overdone bling on these older bikes... it'll still be shiny and clean, and there will still be chrome, but just highlights not feature areas.. so not quite murdered out black.. but a lot less bling for sure. .and the bodywork this time will be wrapped in some awesome vinyl.... it'll be a feature for a new company i've found, and should make some awesome video... just got to get through this big bit first... thanks for your support, have a great weekend..
