Well i set off from work in leeds last night and drove down to bourne in lincs to pick up project damage case. I got back home just after 11.15 so pics will follow tonight , to be honest trailer and car are still loaded. So far what i have are 3 kr1 frames and swingers three bottom ends a loom clocks two barrels one bored to take tz 350 piston two sets of forks three rear wheels one damaged. one front three shocks one rebuilt one refurbed crank other three unknown one damaged tank. one radiator. and other things yet to descover. So its going to be a big job just to get one up and runing. I would love to get one back to fresh standard condition and one for a track toy and go to work plaything. I warn your ladies and gents their will be questions and swearing along the way .To quote the god that is lemmy MOVE OVER FOR A DAMAGE CASE ! Right off to work to print off the manual

I saw that advertised on Ebay and the bored out 350 barrel. I remember back in the early 90's Stan Stephens tried boring out a KR1 to 350 using TZ pistons - but it never stayed together long enough for it to be viable.

Are you keeping all the bits or seling any of it on?

Yeah i think it was a hag hughes readers special in pb but not sure. i want it standard bore really .whos going to want one 350 barrel tho so might have to match it up even if i do move it on . As for selling anything else on i might do some things but i need to look at what ive got over the next few days and go from their .

Yep me too, I was tempted but for some strange reason I convinced myself I had enough projects for the moment

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with Arc, you have enough to be getting on with.

Hags bike was a yammagamma with a F2 spec 350ypvs lindermere tuned motor.
Strange to use a TZ350 piston as they are piston ported so the skirt controls the inlet timing,unlike the KR's.
Be interesting to see the barrel if you got a pic.

Good work sir, im just going on what the guy said so who knows. ill take some pics tonight and upload . Always loved hags stuff what happened to him ?

so this is the supposed bored to take tz 350 barrel.

this modern technology posting pics thing is a bit above me but ill grasp it soon. i got out in the garage today and cleared some space to start the clean up and assessment of what i have . i have a bloody long list of things i need. already have a head on the way but lots to do .

wifes foot was desperate to get in the pics as was Michael Jackson
