Ouch - postage double the gasket

Had good luck with using gasket paper and a small ball peen hammer.Place paper on cover, gently tap the edge. The cover will cut the paper in the exact shape. Do the same for the inside. The 'ball' part of the hammer placed over the holes and tapped with another hammer marks the placement. Hole punch does the rest

That's a great tip when you cannot source gaskets parts for your bike in Thailand, l more or less make gaskets the same.

The nearest Honda big bike place to me won't order stuff from Japan or even get Honda head office Bkk to order stuff for my bike because there's no stock parts in Thailand for it.

The rear wheel hub cushions ain't cheap either mine were compressed letting rear sprocket hub move so made them extra tight with the old trick using a punctured inner tube from my scoot. ????

As I expected and knew already ignition was dodgy and would be a problem, vibration from the first real ride test sorted that 25 year old ignition switch out.

So 30 amp breaker switch 70 bht will solve the problem until I sort a new key ignition. ????

The 130 - 16 front tyre is great forgot how quickly it can turn the bike in on corners especially tight corners.

No prisoners no passenger this is a one man bullet bike. ????

On the few occasions the the bike has surfaced always being asked what c.c. all the time, my 50 baht stickers have solve that.

I'm after some braided front brake hoses in Thailand surely someone in Thailand makes em.

Searches always from outside and postage costs are stupid, anyone on this forum can help thanks.

 

Please try Webike Bangkok. They might have an ignition switch as well.  https://thai.webike.net/en/sd/th0000099

I have used Castrol oil myself all my life in my bikes something I cannot change. ????

I found a shop selling these one liter bottles for 100 baht. 

 

My bike thanked me for it, it runs like a Swiss Clockwork.
