Heavy Twins

About to make a start on renovating my 1960 Model 99 deluxe. The stanchions are covered in rust which may polish off, need to wait to see if there are any surprises on strip down.

Following work on the rear end I need to adjust my rear chain. I thought I could measure the length of each wheel adjuster but can I rely on this for accuracy?

The rotor on my Atlas has decided to give up the ghost by the looks of it. Pity I can't post a video on here which shows exactly what's occurring so I'll have to explain in words and a few pics.

I  have an anti wet sump valve courtesy of RGM on my Atlas.

Been doing a few tweaks to the front end of the ol' Atlas and noticed the new shoes I fitted a few months back on the John Tickle TLS front brake are wearing slightly irregularly (see pics) The top side seems ok but the lower side isn't.

How do I check if the battery is getting charged by the genny?

So I have my re-ground crank back and want good quality +20 shells now. What and who can supply these ? Is there a good brand and is there a `do not bother with out there ? Do AE supply shells for Nortons ?

cheers.

The top bolt that secures the gearbox  is innacessible to a socket set.  The nut should be reduced hexagon to allow a socket to fit . But reduced to what?.

Gudgeon Pin - My 650SS came to a sudden halt. The piston had a crack and a small hole. The bores were OK so I ordered a set of standard pistons from RGM in September.
