A brand new S10 cylinder head for £90...... retail price apparently £1250....
Which will go very nicely with my cylinder block which I snaffled for 70 quid 18 months ago....

Re: Geoff's Super Tenere rebuild...
Play. We arrive in UK on 6th May (with wives) and will head to Derby for a stay with mutual friends. (actually I arrive two weeks earlier, 22nd April)GeoffD wrote:
What you guy's doing over here?.... work...play... Will you be coming up North & what date are you coming??
From there we hope to do various 1 or 2 day trips around the area. I want to see the National Motorcycle Museum and the BSA factory site in Birmingham. Other suggestions are welcome.
You and Tommy10 are on the list to visit. We then leave England on 18th May to fly to Croatia for 2 weeks, then fly Vienna to Melbourne.

Re: Geoff's Super Tenere rebuild...
Thanks to Fred (Oliver) I had another delivery for the S10 today......
He gave me it all for a great price (the oil cooler was a suprise Oliver!!)
I now have almost enough to do both the S10 & twin discs on Tenere 4...
Huge thanks mate & I owe you lots & lots of beer....

Re: Geoff's Super Tenere rebuild...
You are welcome, Geoff. 
I hope everything is Ok?
Did you find the rotors? I can´t see them...
Where the boxes OK? Postmen can be so
The oilcooler was with a package I bought some time ago.
It was laying around here and I put it from one corner to the next corner.
So I thought: "Give it to someone who has got a 3AJ."
I don´t know why you were crawling up in my mind ?
And thanks Mezo...

Mainly the rear wheel rim now Mez, once Ten 3 is finished I'll be sorting out the engine, I want to get the lump in the frame & get her back on her wheels.... I also need all the rear suspension bolts but I'll probably get new uns ...
I've seen a few wheels for sale but they've been very expensive...

Re: Geoff's Super Tenere rebuild...
Yeah thanks Mez....but I don't want to pay that much.... I've already got the hub, etc powder coated... just waiting for a rim to turn up...if I have to spend that much I'll buy a new rim...
