Another decent fall day here, so I sorted out the leaking oil line to the head, I noticed one line to the cooler was also leaking so I decide to make two new lines.

That is damned professional looking Paul. I sure would like to get there some day. What is that “brand” you are using? And do you have to buy special equipment to use it? MikeV |

Thanks Mike! No special tools required only patience. The fittings and hose came from Summit racing, great price and service. Parts I used were: -6 45 degree fitting sum- 220686b -6an straight hose end sum-220690b 10’ -6 hose sum-240610b The hose is nylon with steel reinforced rubber, when I cut the hose I wrap it with electrical tape and use a dremel with a cutoff disc. The tape keeps the hose nice when you install the first part of the fitting, I use a little oil on the second part of the fitting to help with the threading of then together

After getting in touch with the person that bought the Tt from Pete I learned a few more things. When he bought the Tt the deal was helped along by Henry Hogben. The Tt was taken to Keith Harte where the motor was freshened with a billet stroker crank, and larger pistons, he wasn’t sure if it was a 650 or a 750 when he received the Tt. It was now a 850 and he spent a couple of years racing it here. He said he had trouble adapting to riding with slicks (“knee down”) so he sold the Tt to a new owner. Nice to finally have all the pieces of information. Paul
