I have been working up a list for some time now of replacement parts and sensible upgrades.
These are all items I use and have done to my own bikes. They are variations of current known mods and replacement parts. All chosen to achieve the same outcome.
I have received PM's from forum members for these products and services over the years, and have had great feedback.
I feel now is the time to start offering them here, in a single place. I am going to work with Jerry to add them to the Shopping cart, it is getting to be too much to organize them thru PM's and email.
As with all these items and services, they will be completed as time allows, and in the order they are received.
As this is my hobby, Family and Work obligations come first. I do try to complete things in a timely manner, but is sometimes not possible.
I have the capability to blast and Powder Coat all the parts of a Commando, shy of the frame.
I have 80% gloss black in stock, along with many other colors.
I also can do Alloy polishing, this does take quite a bit of time, especially if there are nicks and corrosion.
Welding services for Alloy, SS and steel are also available.
Here are the Items I am going to offer:
Replacement parts:
Spiral retaining ring - replacement for the 060752 clutch locating cir clip
Belleville Washer - replacement for the NM24948 Alternator rotor ¾ lock washer
Belleville Washer - replacement for the 063447 and 063459 clutch fixing washer and tab washer.
Gearbox shaft X-rings - drop in replacement for the 04-0005 kick shaft and 04-0006 shift shaft.
Repair services:
Head fin repair – Available on a quote basis. I have had great success on my own bikes.
Barrel fin repair - Available on a quote basis. I have had great success on my own bikes.
Modification services:
Front Engine mount - Narrow front ISO mount for vernier ISO's
Oil tank reinforcement - strengthen the two top mounts and add a doubler plate to the bottom.
(I do not remove the lower mounting boss, just strengthen it) Includes new HD rubber mounts.
Transmission Cradle – Spindle clamping with SS hardware and Transmission opening relief cut.
Swing-arm – Add boxed reinforcement to earlier round tube only swing-arms
Fork slider top nuts – Machine for New double lip wipers and include a set of double lip seals.
Clutch spring compressor tool
*Quick change cam bearing - Requires machining of both cases. Includes Needle bearing for LH case and removable needle bearing and carrier for RH case.
Allows for future cam swaps without splitting cases.
*Swing-arm Spindle Covers - My own design, Heavy duty SS, brass or alloy end-plates.
*PR style head steady - Only 2 left, will consider another run if there is enough interest.
*Oil pressure gauge assembly - My own design, does not adversely alter the bike.
*Alloy front engine mount
*Alloy Transmission cradle
*Alloy Swing-Arm
Note: Items preceded with a * may have extended lead time due to stock on hand. Alloy Items will have a long lead time due to the excessive labor involved.
