callison Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 eBay MGS01 The price is right. All I need now is a winning lottery ticket!!! And this one is back on eBay UK as well: MGS01 UK
DeBenGuzzi Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 Not unless I win the Lottery First, Do you think they'll make any Aftermarket parts for this bike??
callison Posted April 30, 2005 Author Posted April 30, 2005 Not unless I win the Lottery First, Do you think they'll make any Aftermarket parts for this bike?? 50084[/snapback] Aftermarket parts? You mean like tires and gas?...
Paul Minnaert Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 Aftermarket parts? hardbags and luggagerack? trottlemeister and raised handlebars? More usefull would be the first to drop the bike so someone can make molds for light fairing and tank/tail. And for racing it's nice to have a second set of wheels, to do a easy swap with rain tyres. But I suppose that they can be ordered as spare part.
belfastguzzi Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 Aftermarket parts? handbags and gladrags? 50091[/snapback] er, can I be the first one to ask... is there a fender extender that fits?
Alex-Corsa Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 Can someone say to me what exactly are the nymonic valves. I am mechanically dump ...LOL . I think they don't need to be adjusted every now and then,right?.

I think they don't need to be adjusted every now and then,right?. 50096[/snapback] I think they spelled it incorrectly, and should be nimonic. Anyway, it's just a different alloy, with Nickle I believe, that is highly heat resistant. al ... an excerpt from a valve manufacturer: 214N (349S52) About 1960 a new steel, 214N was developed. This steel retains its hardness even up to temperatures of 800 Deg. C and possesses excellent rupture strength under high temperature conditions combined with good creep and impact values, The high Chromium content gives good scaling resistance, and has greater corrosion resistance against Chlorine although is still not immune to sulphurous attack. 1.4882 This material has the same properties as 214N (349S52) but with addition of Ta (Tantalum), Nb (Niobium) and W (Tungsten). This gives it greater elongational properties, improved tensile, yield and creep strength. Note: This material is available in stem sizes of (7.44mm - 9/32") or less. Nimonic 80A Nimonic 80A has an increased operating temperature over 214N and higher corrosion resistance.
al_roethlisberger Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 .... and I will once again say that I am sooooo glad that this bike does nothing for me, as I don't need the temptation It's very liberating
Alex-Corsa Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 .... and I will once again say that I am sooooo glad that this bike does nothing for me, as I don't need the temptation It's very liberating Thanks for the info. Strongest Steel I know is the M-2,(O.K gimme a break and the ZDP-189,CPM 15V,COWRY-X and COWRY-Y beat the RC scale well) anyway was nice knowing fir the Nymonic thing Isn't titanium a better choice for valves? I think is super strong, anticorrosive as Gold (or so) and light as feather (well for a metal)

Guest aironepony Posted May 1, 2005 Posted May 1, 2005 Has someone in the UK got one of these on the road (legally)? Seem to have read something about it........it would be nice to know what they had to do to get it registered and MOT'd etc......... What about after market bar end weights with leather tassles and a nice embossed leather tool roll to hang on the sissy bar?.................
callison Posted May 1, 2005 Author Posted May 1, 2005 Pullbacks and forward controls. A must to impress the Harley Davidson crowd. Wait a minute, you can't impress that crowd that easily. Okay, add some straight pipes to the mix. Never mind that the horsepower will go down...
callison Posted May 1, 2005 Author Posted May 1, 2005 eBay MGS01 50063[/snapback] Wow. It didn't even last 25 hours. $28,000. I envy they guy that got it.
callison Posted May 1, 2005 Author Posted May 1, 2005 I hope he knows of a good chrome shop. 50142[/snapback] For the chrome plated muffler bearings?
