Hi Wolf,

I think that Nigel or Eldert need to give an opinion on that; cast iron does tend to have impurities and blemishes in it, and those blow holes may not matter, or then again they might....

What do others think?


Cheers,

Colin

My 450 SCR is back on the road!

Everything is working nicely - thanks a lot again for your valuable input and help!

Cheers

Bill, that's the plan!

I'm looking forward to - this bike is not made for sitting in the garage. Hope to bring it over the alps to do some nice cornering and have a lot of espresso in the bars connected to the gas stations..

Cheers

Wolf
