I aspire to your skill and your perserverence. How cool is it that you you make substantial changes, grind all kinds of stock things up, and still . . . it runs. You have no idea how cool that is for some of us that, even with 1 on 1 stock replacement can't get things in line. Thanks for the thread. Bothe education and inspiration!
Oh! Thou great wizard from down under,
You see everyone accuses you of wizardry
Well it's true, that you can make from nothing, everything that you invent!!!
Grtz Rens
p.s. what's the size of youre head? Because with such great ideas it must be very BIG

have been trying to get mud and charcoal and ash and scratches on it. 3 hour trail ride today chasing up the ignition point of last sundays bush fire, found it 4ks from my place.
found 3 things; 1st gear works very well, I have created a submarine and top gear WOT on the beach with 16/45 never ever gets old.
my other bike has conked out in deep water a few times from water getting in the little hole at the bottom of the kokusan cover, this one wolf nuts one is tight as a fishes arse, front mud guard was well under a few times
crappy phone pic of Paradise on my doorstep

Hey Bushie,
Well if i may believe it, the bike is spot on?
Good to hear that so far all is well mate.
In the meantime i just can look at my Berg, may do nothing,like heavy right now, etc.
Well some stupid comments at the forum is the best at the moment

p.s.just missing someone in the photo

Hi Rens
the bike works OK
engine is good, but lame compared to the 700
also by comparison it weighs 14 kgs more, is top heavy and the shock is terrible
but for old farts trail riding expeditions it is perfect LOL
i will sort the shock out eventually.
can you manage a trip to Amsterdam ..window shopping?
that is a crazy place to navigate around in a 5 series BMW without a map

nice job Zaga! that is a proper straight through for sure
been pointed out by a few blokes who know me that there are far to many shiny bits on the new bike
maybe this is more like it bit of surface rust already after yesterdays beach run
tt600 kickstarter after a bit of angle grinding and mixed mechanical violence
don't think this one is gonna break!
the splines are the same as berg just gotta grind it and weld the split shut then turn the right hand lever into a left hand lever.
note 18x1.5 bung ready to weld in for the wego O2 sensor

Hey Bushie,
What's that about the shock? I thought you didn't replace the woodstick for the shock
But in your last post i see different!
And the weight of 14 kgs? Is that rider or bike weight!
But i think Tourist is right about beeing a bit spoiled
Well about A'dam i think that the Beemer 5 series will be a problem, we could take a witch broom But as non smoker we could always drink coffee overthere in a certain shop:smoker:
And what's with the navigation?do you really need a map? No bro, certainly not!!
We would be so drunk that our "internal navigation"would fail any way
Grtz Rens
p.s.I should at least mention that ZAGA pays attention at the wizardlessons
Nice job ZAGA love it!

Re the 700
engine:
http://husaberg.org/mechanical/11677-jbs-700-kit-welded-80mm-crank.html
Frame:
http://husaberg.org/suspension/12779-bushmechanic-frame-build-pics-stuff.html
In Amssterdams Rens I found a one way street neukirkistraat i think .. it was one way on the north side of a creek and aftr crossing a bridge with trolls underneath it was one way in the other direction to the south of the creek you're right no map or alcohol required !
the weight difference is mostly frame and tubes/tyres, ohlins shock is lighter and a few other bits but if you look close you can see a lot of other extra **** on the heavy one that is not needed .. ... airbox, speedo, regulators/wiring light, steering damper etc

Hi Bushie,
Wish I could build stuff that quick Bushie but I seem to get tied up in the detail too much I suspect
Anyway how does it run with that lighter crank? interested of coarse if it makes much difference or should I try the lighter flywheel as well? as we have only removed around 10% so far.
Been studying the laser/electron beam welding scenarios for welding crank pin into the flywheels and it still not ideal for carburised parts, nothing is it seems, But may be helpful in other crankshaft designs.
Cheers spanner
