New to the board

Walms

Been Around the Block
Hello all, I'm new to the board! It looks like I know a few guys here from other sites I frequent though... :D
I live just north of Toronto and a lover of old kawi 2 strokes!
Right now I own a 1978 KH400 (slightly modified) and currently working on a 1971 G3SS which will get the full Monty. Not sure if I'll get the little critter to a ton but I'm gonna try my best! ;D
Lots of beautiful bikes here for sure! Looking forward to the banter!
Cheers
Andrew
 
Thanks, here are a few shots... The bike was pretty rough when I bought it. I cleaned her all up but it wasn't long before I wanted to modify her... :)

The G3SS I've only had for a couple of weeks, I'm still in the tear down stage with this one... I hope to have it completed by May next year.

Welcome Andrew.

Any chance we can see one of the animated WTF renders? That I suspect would blow a few minds.
 
Absolutely! :)

These are images of the pipe I have on the bike now...

Btw, this is what I have planned for the G3SS... Not my bike and I only photoshop'd a pipe on it but this is basically the plan... The bike weighs 174 lbs. and stock HP is 10.5...
I'm fitting a 100cc top end from a ke100 (5 port instead of 3) the goal is 20hp and 160lbs.
It should be a fun bike!!!

Welcome to DTT sir that there is some art and some very nice bike to boot !!!!
 
Ooops. I'm a little late to the "Welcoming Committee"!! ;) ;D

Guys... don't let Walms fool you. That kh400 is more than a "little" modified. Unless, of course, you consider a "reeded, Moo-dified, Keihn-carburated, fat-piped 500 engine" in a 400 chassis, just a little work. :eek:


You'll like it here Walms... good folks!! :D
 
Well it's been a long winter. I finally got my bike back together after another bore, some more porting, rebuilt crank, new flat slides, undercut gears, new shift forks, hydraulic clutch and new pipes. It should be a fun summer. :)

Your bike is a beauty and a beast! Great job on the build. :) I have to ask, how do you like those rear shocks? I was thinking of ordering a set for my bike.

Hopefully I'll have the bike to Paris next weekend! When trying to re-new my plate sticker, I was told that I sold my bike last year and I'll need to file a report with the police. My ownership and plates mean nothing to them now. :(
It's nuts!
 
Just to give you a taste of my grief, this is the last correspondence with Serice Ontario...

Hello Andrew, as per our telephone conversation this is the information that Jennifer from Hotline told me.

First step:
Go to the police station and ask them what you need to file a report on this transfer that you were not aware of.
Ask them what documents you would need to provide to them, such as the ownership, bill of sale etc. and if any of the documents need to be certified before you give it to the police.

Second step:
Write a letter explaining the entire situation. That you were not aware of any transfer, how you’ve had the motorcycle for 7 years and that it’s never been transferred by you etc. Write as much information that you have on this letter so that they have all the facts.
In the letter include the VIN number of the Motorcycle
Your name
Address
Best contact number
Your credit card number with the expiry and the 3 digits on the back. This is to charge you for each document that you need to show the police. Each document is $6.00 that is why it is best to go to the police first to find out exactly what you need.
Also include that you want this processed right away so that you don’t have to wait 4-6 weeks for this information to get mailed to you.
And if the documents need to be certified, make sure this is included in the letter as well.

Step 3:
Fax or Mail the letter to Data Access Unit MTO
Fax Number: 416 235 4414

Mailing address:
Data Access Unit MTO
Building A – 2680 Keele Street
Downsview Ontario
M3M 3E6

I was speaking to both Jennifer and Chris, and they both advised me to tell you to go to the police to file a report.

Hopefully this works out for you.
Have a good evening.
