Re: Ace 90 Speedo gasket?

Bev Yes, please do up a piece on this for the Resonator! As Matt noted, many of us have “impaired“ speedos, be nice to know how to repair them. I’ll be soliciting articles for the next Res before long, and would love to have your tale, along with whatever pix you can include. Bob Whitman 541-954-010...

Stuck starter plunger

Old 22mm Mikuni- brass starter plunger is stuck in the pot metal carb body. I’m beginning heat/penetrating fluid treatments. Any suggestions?

Re: Cylinder bore how to measure

Danny If you agree, I’d like to use this in the Resonator, attributing it to you. While I can lift it from the chat group, it works better if you could email me .jpg copies of the photos and the text separately. Gregg and I can then fit it more easily into the newsletter.

Re: 03 Wombat restoration in search of insight

And note that the conversion Ed discussed requires using the RT crank as well as the rod. 03 crank, rod & piston are a unique combination; you must use all three or none!
