What happened, did it spew oil all over the track or what? Did the tank break?

Luckily no...... a pipe at bottom of the gear box started to leak, the start did not go well with some fuel getting blown out as well, it was back of the start line, and crew at the track had more than my little mishap to deal with by the end of the day, some guy with top v twin, blow main pressure oil line at staging line :-( .... so work to do, few things to in prove, back there I hope soon....

HI Guys, sorry not posted for some time.....
Things are coming on well, few problems sorted, few little things sorted, but there has been some good improvements. The start in the video is not the best we have done, but I have a little change to do, which should help make thing better, the ngv section looks hotter than it really is, but when filming in low light it just seems to look hotter, once the bike is moving things will cool off a little :-) The engine runs well, thank you John, every one thinks its wonderful.
The plan now is to sort few little bits, tidy up some changes I have made, then santapod 27th with some of the group to test and test some of there kit

CCD cameras are a lot more sensitive to the infra-red spectrum and they tend to make hot objects look hotter than they really are.

Hi Guys, did another test today, every thing is coming together well, air start now working better, temps down, but that could just be it so cold out side at the moment, oil system holding up well. But as you will see in the video, at half power the brakes don't work...... :-)

Hi John
yep, thinking brakes may need rethink, I will have fronts to help, but guess at full power. both still not going to cut it :-)
starting well now, just new fod screen and battery box to fit, then big car park to get her moving
have started making a bendix as well, but that could all be later this year
Thanks for all your help John
