Griffon QUB rebuild, Mk2

[griffon380]

All looking good for its Telford Show debut!

Yes Colin, I just need to get it out around a track before the show to get some muck and scrapes put on it. Then it will match the other two I am bringing.

Got the email Kim, definitely a good plan but don't forget we have pre 78 class here in Northern Ireland so I can race the MK2 every other week if I want.
With all that practice it means that I might whip your arse.

Got the carb back today, cleaned up well.

I spoke to Allens Performance ltd today about some spares for the carburettor.
What a friendly bunch of guys they are. Very very helpful.
In fact so helpful that I got another Mikuni for the MK1. Watch out Kim and Dave, I have finally taken your advice. Might be a bit faster this year

[Brian Catt]

We will alert the CAA! And the St. Johns!

[Dave Smith]

Looking good mate.
I got some of the new rebound springs made for mine. So I got some spare ones if you want to replace yours.
Just let me know and I will post them over.

Looking forward to it DeCorset ....... you know the Mikuni makes sense on the Mk1 .......won't make you much faster but will get you round without issue - and start easier ...low end power will be SMooooth.



I will try and persuade Gilly for a summer holiday in NI ..if that isn't an oxymoron and do some twin shock specials

Hi Dave,
Keep them for me so that I can collect on my way past. Thats as good a reason as any for a wee trip your direction.

Hi kim, i`ll be taking the maico over & also give the qub a few licks around the track...............but wots a table top?......

[Brian Thompson]

You don't look at the furniture when you're going for the triple....

.........but wots a table top?......

....no point asking Kim mate......he's normally too high up in the air to notice them....

For me, it's what I build engines and guitar stuff on in our nice warm kitchen....

Hope that helps bro.
