jrt Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Wow, Jaap, that's really, really nice looking. I'm talking about the bike, of course. That Eagle looks great! She does too, but that's not why we read this forum (with the exception of one thread). Take some video and audio and post it up!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Jaap Posted January 23, 2011 Author Share Posted January 23, 2011 Added yesterday: Griso/1200 Sport valve covers. Makes it look a bit more bulkier, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Minnaert Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I see you still try to compesate for not having a 4V in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Jaap Posted January 23, 2011 Author Share Posted January 23, 2011 No need really for a 4V, it's fast enough and the torque and bhp's are sufficient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raz Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Really nice! Do the valve covers just fit, out of the box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard100t Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 With the serious diet he put that bike on I think it would spank the new 8v bikes in any competition. Btw how much does the bike weigh now with a full tank of gas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Jaap Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 Really nice! Do the valve covers just fit, out of the box? Yep, but you have to order the plastic parts also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belfastguzzi Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Wow: brilliant! I've missed a lot of this thread so I'll have to go back to see what all you did, e.g. what's the exhaust? Fabulous work and design finish, Jaap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belfastguzzi Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Does it make much difference to the insurance cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fabulous work and design finish, Jaap. Exhaust is homemade by my brother. Insurance costs haven't changed; I have informed the insurance company about the upgrades. But I'm planning to have a valuation done this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Jaap Posted November 24, 2011 Author Share Posted November 24, 2011 No need really for a 4V, it's fast enough and the torque and bhp's are sufficient. Eating my words... A few weeks back I picked up a Centauro engine for the G&B. Today I received the front-subframe of an early V11 Sport. The cam belt covers won't fit in the redesigned front-subframe from the later models.* This weekend some serious engine cleaning and checking. * Thanks to Paul Minnaert for the tip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Jaap Posted December 3, 2011 Author Share Posted December 3, 2011 Decided to take the Centauro engine to http://www.motoschmitz.de They will blast the complete engine with glass perls. The bevelbox and tranny also. So coming week I have take these two off the G&B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
