Hi Grant, I was a postie for a while on lower north shore and knew a guy (Grant) who was a duke fiend way back when. he had a beautiful sport, and when I bumped into him a few years later, he had added a couple of GT's and a single from memory. I have been expecting to find him along the way here so...

Hey Grant, were you ever a postie??

Rick

Like I said, someone more knowledgeable would comment!

I may be wrong about this, and I am not a mechanic and have never rebuilt one of these, But I thought than one of the strange and great things about the Duke V-twin is that Both cylinders fire at the same time. Therefore, that would lead me to think that both pistons would be at TDC at the same time...

the 78 GT's definitely exist I have one, and another was just on evilbay....dont know if it sold Falloon mentions them in his Bible apparently 40 GT's & 23 Sports came in. I have heard a couple of reason why 1. aussie dealers wanted them because the 860's didnt sell well 2. a shipment had been p...

I was watching that one, but missed the last couple of days.

quite incredible isn't it!!!!

wish I would have bought 1/2 dozen when they were a grand or so.

Even the S2, a couple of years ago you would be lucky to get 2- grand for one

Rick

excellent photos, and I too love those black & gold 900 ss's, one of the nicest bikes ever made.

Sorry we couldn't cross paths Steve,maybe next time.

and what is that 750 "special" ?

roundcase 750 in a narrow frame...is it a Sport?

Rick

Funny, I ordered the oil strainer from Steve & the Dipstick from Sydney (starts with a G) Both on same day, Bevel Heaven order done on line, for the Sydney part, I spoke to a real person! Ordered same day, about 20 minutes apart, paid with a credit card for both. Arrived here in Nth NSW, same da...

Oh, forgot, Kids soccer around 10 am at Tumbulgum, which is about 10 mins up the road from Mur"bah

Rick

sorry Grover, no emails at my end.

Have checked both email addresses!

what time are you around.....we have a trip to nanna's organised for the kids in the arvo, but should be around in the morning

maybe could meet for a quick coffee in town or something

Rick

Yeh, just ordered one from Steve!

I have a pair sitting around I probably should sell. I am an honest guy, & any of you who watch this forum may remember the issues I had with them Purchased new in about 1988, probably did about 4000 K's before being left to sit. Went to rebuild them and discovered that the tip of the mixture sc...

Just been quoted huge dollars for new drain plug/oil strainer (if you can call it that!) for roundcase 750 GT. Gowanlochs had 1, Road & Race had none, waiting on fleabay querie, as the guy in Netherlands only has square case items listed, but the prices are about a quarter $265 + postage for a s...

Nice one Grover! I still have the idea for coming down from Murwillumbah for a ride with the Grafton Bevels It looks like work has started to taper off for the season, but now I have charging issues with the GT It is a 78 model as well! Does not show up as well in photos, I still have to get some pa...
