DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Saw this on a Honda (bike) forum a while ago - there is a slideshow that goes with it although the message is the same. I'll see if I can dig it out.

That was quick, found it ... http://home.pacbell.net/diana_do/knowjack.htm

Thanks Nick, not too far away. I'll talk to them.

Just coming back to this topic as I'll be looking to clean up the engine cases etc on my CB650 project sometime in the new year. What's the blast medium?

Hi Shane, have you posted a wanted on PCGB? I can put one for you if you want, just pm me whatever contact details you want shown on the post.

It'll be cast into the back of one of the spokes, along with the rim size - something like 7JX15ET23.3 'early' offset is 23.3mm (or maybe 22.3mm, can't remember exactly), whereas later offset is 53.3 (or 52.3).

I've got an early offset 15x7 with a reasonable Pirelli P6000 on it (good tread but can't vouch for the age of it) Not quite what you're asking for, but just in case...

Nice work, mate, good luck and keep us posted.

regards, Phil

Can we have a poll to find out just how many DDK'ers are 6'3", coz i've counted quite a few in this thread. Meanwhile, back to the original post...

No, no, no that's not good enough. You know we only accept pics of your car brightening up the outside of HMP Norwich.

Thanks Barry, Nick, (no, not a classic Barry, a runabout that I'm turning into a sprint car to keep my hand in and in the absence of any other project)

I'll be coming back via Crowborough on Tues, so wil pop into Martin Storey.

thanks, Phil

Where can I get brake line fittings? I'm after the loose male ends that are fitted to the flared ends of the solid brake lines and screw into the female thread on the flexible lines. Do Pirtek do them as I'll be just up the road from one of their branches on Tuesday?

thanks, Phil

If it is to be a 'company car' , make sure the market value is below £15K , then I'm pretty sure you are taxed on the original purchase price. If it is worth more than £15K I beleive you are taxed on its current market value I like the sound of that. Any more info from anyone? This could be quite a...
