Hello from Belgium

Well I guess you have more chance in getting an autograph from Roger than me, he's an American citizen now and is training the KTM team and according to wiki also the national team. Robert still lives and trains here tho, I'll try and ask ;) :D
 
I'm not getting any replies from Robert, sorry.

I put all the stuff on the other day, just need to cut and spray the bearclaw now. Drives great so far but I'm booked for the 14th of July to go on the rollers for tuning so I'm taking it easy for now..
I put the GiPro display on the right mirror because there was no way it was gonna fit between the gauges, maybe they put them wider apart in the later models or the GiPro display became wider? Looks great though but the guys behind me can see what gear I'm in LOL.
But the GiPro doesn't recognise first gear, it says 2-0-2-3-4-5. Could this be my gps being faulty or should I just use the learning process?


Also, in the picture there's an 1974 oldsmobile delta 88 convertible in the background, any of you guys in the states know where I can get new/used rear quarters for this? So far I've only found this one place, secondhand and $1500. Once they get here it'll be like $2000. So any alternatives are allways welcome :) thanks

Been to the rollers the other day, 201Nm torque and 151 hp @ the wheels, not too bad I'd think :) Als cut the bearclaw up so it just covers the coolingtank en top of the filters, it looks much cleaner now!

If you turn that rear K&N 90° your bearclaw will fit.
Thanks for the dope on Robert and Decoster!

Kets, I can't help you on the quarters but I once had the '72 Delta 88 with the Rocket 350. Loved that big boat; so smooth on the highway. I can see why you want to restore yours. Good luck brother.
 
thanks all :)

yeah I haven't driven the Olds around because it isn't registered yet but really looking forward to it! :) Allthough I think it'll be a winterproject because I'm building a capri atm and a new garage..priorities and stuff haha. But really looking forward to cruising top down :)
 
If you're still looking to cut the fender, I found led strip light that will work here in EC standards. It's about 2cm tall by 10cm wide and flexible so it forms to the bottom of the fender cut. I'll see of I can track down the specs again, and you can relocate the indicators into the side of the fenders with mini led's.
 
Okay thanks, that would be great! I was looking into that route myself at one point.. Would be even better if there were ledstrips with orange tips on the side to act as indicators :D
