Another Got a box in the mail......

Post by 8541Hawk »

Well I could do the whole guessing thing but I'll make it easy this time.... :angel:
Got a visit from Mori Clause with something to keep my piston set from getting lonely.....
So I now have a set of, new to me, Stg 1 cams.
That and the fact that the bike is no longer my only transport means I guess I don't have an excuse to put things off. :thumbup:

It may be that your whole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

Anymore the boxes might actually be worth something but yes these two are filled with Mori goodness :thumbup:

Pure unobtanium porn. How you have managed to source that little lot is a miracle. I hope you will be starting a build thread so we can follow along on your joyous path. What's the Yellow thing in the bag next to the gasket. Looks like some kind of aliment tool shaped like a reamer or marlinspike.
