Re: 1980 Spitfire Seat Assistance

Ok here's a bunch of pictures. I'll try and get something drawn up on my PC that lays it out nice. Where I messed up is I didn't do a "nub" on each front corner roughly ½ x ½, that's the picture I have of the front corner when on the sled. I'm leaving bolt holes out of it, get the plywood ...

Re: 1980 Spitfire Seat Assistance

I just recovered mine for my 79. Should be the same? Cut out new plywood too. I'll see if I can get some dimensions and pics for you.

I'll try and get some videos ...

Well I succumbed to eBay for the radiator and mount and UPS lost my parts. Figures! Still looking.

I'm looking for a Liquifire radiator and mount for my 82 Sportfire Fuji motor project. Radiator Mount Oil tank I'm in western Wisconsin close to the twin cities. I'll happily pay shipping. I did find a couple things on eBay but I thought I'd support someone here first. If I don't hear anything in th...

Re: INVADER,MIKUNI CARB QUESTION

Thanks nitro. Yeah, there is definitely no hang up, I've had the tops off several times. If I adjust them down so that it idles correctly, then at WOT the air box side is even hanging down almost an 1/8 inch. Then when I adjust it so that the slide is all the way out of the carb throat, it doesnt co...

Another thing; while not having my helmet on, warming it up going around the yard, there is a rattle from the clu...
