Couple of pictures of the GSX, got a bit of interference issue between cylinder head and tank which I wasn't expecting, its a long stroke 750 but I thought the problem was only supposed to effect the 1100+ engines. Grrr

Engine in

Fitted an Ermax screen to keep the cold air off my chest in the coming months and OEM quickshifter to the MT10

Bought good condition forks and discs, seat, front tyre and correct front spindle for triumph sprint 955i. Nothing fitted yet as I still have a lot of work internally to do to new built garage. Its now got windows and doors

Took my great sounding 46 year old HiFi amp apart today to investigate a burning smell.

You sure that's not out of your DeLorean motor?  Wink
Is that a rare part these days?
I'll put it past a few people at work and see if they can help at all, you'd probably start salivating if you stepped into my Electronic Engineer Managers office, it's like a museum of old tv's and audio equipment.

It came with the Jensen Interceptor  :lol

Should be common enough as it is a Rifa 22nF 275V film capacitor with 15mm lead spacing.

Will try the local electronic stores today and if that fails will order 2 off Farnell Electronics

The Amp on its own was about £110 when I bought the HiFi in 1980, it is rated at 40w rms per channel.  Smile

I just showed him and he knew what it was straight away, I can get a couple of the equivalent parts in the post to you today if you want? (no cost to you at all)
Let me know, as I think the post gets collected at 4pm.

Just checked in a few minutes ago

Thank you very much for that offer Darrsi, greatly appreciated, but I managed to get one in Maplin at lunchtime.

Fitted it when I came home and all back together and working now  :thumbup . Tested it with an LP, Pink Floyd, Bliss :woot

It should have said 36 year old not 46 year old, bought it in 1980
