5KE TZ250 Cases with Inserts (aka: TZ250 Porn)

Just wanted to post some good old fashioned TZ250 Porn.

Installing my cases that have inserts in them so they will no longer wear out. Bruce Lind had the contact to do this work. I am not a machinist, but this is no easy task (and I am not sure this person will ever do another batch again).

Anyway, if and when I ever sell my bike, it will be at a considerable premium because of this work.

Here's 3 photos for your enjoyment.

 

Yeah, that looks awesome! Gotta keep those 5KEs running somehow!

 

that's awesome! What material did you have the inserts made out of ?

 

Nice!

Speaking of the 5KE... whatever happened with the billet cases that Bruce had built?

 

Did Mark Watts do it?

 

Not exactly sure of the material. @Bruce Lind would know this, and may (or may not) reveal who did the work. Somewhere in England I think...I didn't ask specifics...I just wrote the check!

 

wow.. lovely

 

That is beautiful work!

 

Would that be the Mark Watts from the San Diego area, an expat Brit?

 

Yes. Great guy.

 

Yes he is and in his younger days was a complete lunatic.

 

PM me if you ever decide to sell.
