Took the rolling chassis to the engine builder. Now I need to start building up the second rolling chassis.
The shop is real old school and a classic Italian haven.

got the dyno pulls mixed up Phil, is only 104hp @ 6500 rpm on the original 3-1 exhaust system
is the red trace on the attached chart, second engine pull which is the blue trace with new 3-1 exhaust design pulled 111.47hp but with a pronounced dip at 6200 rpm
the flat spot dip is what we are working at getting rid of
great torque though, pulls like a train this engine

Collected the altered swingarm from my welder mate and fitted it to the SFC triple project.
This means I can finally start to set the ride height and move the (overlength) fork stanchions to suit. I won't cut anything until the motor is in. (the solid rear suspension is just to allow me to choose between 355 and 362 length shocks)
Next step is to source an SFC centrestand and fit it.

Got it out for her first decent ride since rebuild, rego and Red's recommended alteration. Only 60km to see what would fall off. Apart from a leaking seal under the top cap of the front mastercylinder all went very nicely. Longer run next time.
Oh, and that green really stands out from the crowd. 8)

Yesterday, I put 750 genny parts into a drum of molasses.
Today, I drink red wine whilst chatting with friends, as they go from my house, I check parts in molasses tank. Needed to use huge MF multi-grips to get them out, and check on their progress ........... OK, a bit premmy, as they need a week in there, still rusty. Multi-grips disappear into tank, red wine says it's OK ??? ........... fresh and clean multi-grips next week!
This week I drop Reds "beer tap 750SF motor" back and pick up my horn-bag 880cc motor up. (Thanks man)
Getting excited! 
and keen to get it into the 750 frame.
(Who knows, when this is finished LaverdaIan might even talk to me again
Also, had an epiphany about SFC 2/1 re: noise, rego and EPA. Slip in and out baffle ............ more mental work on this needed. Someone please pour me another red, I seem to have my best thoughts over a red wine or tw ............. ten!?
Got word today that my Ducati Sport 1000 wire wheels (replacing GSXR wheels) are on their way up from Sydney .............. nice.
I'm a little concerned about chain run with the 180 tyre ???, but a few reds (Not Red's) should sort that out.
This Non Laverda/real 750SF(880) is going to be so fucking horny ........ canny wait to wipe out a few Jappers on track days on this baby!
And then, when all is done, it's back to the wide wheel 3CL back-burner project that seems to cry at me, when ever I walk into the shed.
Canny these babies wait? I'm not made of money!

What a waste of molasses. You can make rum from that stuff
Citric acid will shift rust a lot quicker. It's probably cheaper and less sticky too.
