February 4th 1999

I recieved my new Renthal sprocket carrier conversion on Tuesday
as they said I would ;-).  I'll mount it onto the bike once the new
brake mount is made as they need the rear hub assembly to size up
the new bracket for the AP cylinder.

You can see the carrier below.

I've used some of my anodized nuts I got at the show in place
of the steel ones it came with as you can see in the right picture.

Wow been busy with the updates this week, I've built up the sprocket
now with all its anodized nuts as I had to take the hub assembly
apart to have the new brake hangar made for the AP.

You can see all the anodized nuts in
this picture, and also the lockwire
now in place around the cushdrive
center 'cos my brother uses his
lockwire pliers on anything he can.

Here you can see the rear arm with
the hub assembly missing, this is
because the guy making the carrier
needs it to size up for the AP caliper.

I also picked up a Harris aluminium tank for the bike because they're
a bit trick and I had to get a filler cap as well.  I have stuck an external
breather into the front of the tank as the Ducati one is in the original
filler cap.  Should make it stand out ;-)

I left these pictures a bit larger as the tank is a work of art.  The filler
has a deep mouth to it which should help avoid spills, but I will
probably change the screws to anodized ones.
