I was hoping you would be! I was hoping to be sat up at 3am talking bikes & Caterham with you again

No Prob! Shame you're not closer I'd have pinched some from work for you.

A fabricator could make it for you and source the steel, it might not be so expensive? OR here https://www.themetalstore.co.uk/products/mild-steel-sheet Standard sizes are bigger than what you need but it's only £18 for 2000x500 which is more than enough for what you need

Its about 40mm long with the plug in, no bigger than the drain valves . The exhaust sits lower . Edit: Can see in the picture where my case finishes compared with the exhuast: http://i.imgur.com/w5C9Qj2.jpg

Knocking noise from somewhere - chain / front sprocket?
Westbeef replied to Foxy Stoat seeks Pig's topic in Pitstop
I did mine with the help of a friend, its easy enough to do but the front sprocket can get stuck on (on mine anyway). If you use a clip type split link all you need is a grinder to remove the old chain. I think the clip type are perfectly fine, but they are the cheaper option. I used to work for a place making chain and Id never heard of a clip failing. -

Westbeef replied to Foxy Stoat seeks Pig's topic in Pitstop
You need one to push pints out? If it's over riveted it may be quite difficult, you may need to grind the heads off the problem pins before you push it out. I can't recommend any as the only ones I've used was at my last job and we made our own from left-over parts. -
This sounds promising I can't wait.

Is it an R125 engine?

It's usually passed on to be honest, through shares from social media or group messages from friends. If you enjoyed this, I believe you might enjoy some old CKY videos. It sounds like this guy got his inspiration from them.

It's kinda impressive you stuck around to be honest. For the maintenance, or the whole event?
-
I definitely want to, but the 11th is the wife's birthday! I'm only in Notts, so could hopefully make it along for at least a bit, but the whole thing might be pushing my luck! Come early Saturday, make the ride-out and stay for the party

Can I say, Newbies should defo come to this. I did and I had a top time, I didn't know a soul and everyone was very welcoming and I even learned a few things about bike maintenance.
