David Irvine: September 2010
http://irvined.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 3, 2010. I decided to replace the rear wheel bearings on the seven as they were making a bit of noise. To make life easier i knocked up a stand for the rear of the car which means I can stick it on the stand rather than using floor standing axle stands or a trolley jack to support the car. This proved very useful. Seven Trip to spain. Not much driving weather this year, however I did manage to get a trip to spain with some friends, they were flying from all over the place, so I drove do...

David Irvine: December 2009
http://irvined.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 30, 2009. I started with the interior trim in the Fury, anything that I'm likely to come into contact with, which is basically the horizontal panels on the inside are lined with foam sheet, and then covered with Alcantara. The other visible panels will be covered in Alcantara. Progress is quite quick on this, but I've run out of glue so no more progress until after new year. Once the foam was cut to size the alcantara was then attached to the foam using contact adhesive. I'm starting ...

Saturday, September 26, 2009. Not an enormous amount of progress due to preparing the seven for the trip, but I did get some more simple items installed. It is installed as per MSA regulations with two larger nozzles in the engine bay, and two in the cockpit. The fire extinguisher is mounted behind the front wheel on the sidepod. I have installed a nozzle pointing at the fuel system, it sprays in 4 directions, and should give good coverage of the injectors, fuel lines, and air box. First I dropped the su...

David Irvine: August 2009
http://irvined.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 30, 2009. My parents kindly got me a fuel filler for my birthday, so I ordered up the windscreen wiper assembly, windscreen washer, headlights, and front indicators. I'm still undecided about how I want the rear to look like so I'm avoiding ordering anything for the rear just now. I had a chat with MSAR. Safety about seats and other safety bits. I ordered two Tillet B4. Seats in carbon fiber, a gas based fire extinguisher, a steering wheel, and Scroth Profi 6-II 6 point seat belts. To be f...

David Irvine: May 2009
http://irvined.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 26, 2009. Minor Repairs and Upgrades. Final replacement, could benefit from a new outlet as the current outlet on the manifold is at 45Degrees where 90 would be better. I bought a cheapo fuel filter to use as a plenum for the megajolt and installed that in preference to the walbro filter that I shall now use in the fury as originally intended. It didn't make sense to use this filter as a plenum as it was an order of magnitude more expensive than this one:. And will need to replace it. I'...

Friday, April 23, 2010. I cut it to shape, and sure enough, it seems to do the trick. I noticed a few spots on the floor still, so i think i still have a leak somewhere, but its nowhere near as bad as it was, and it certainly isn't from the rocker cover or the breather pipe now. Monday, April 5, 2010. Saturday, April 3, 2010. I thought I was all set to start the engine in the Fury, the last time I did anything with the engine, i was unable to get the expected output on the original bike clocks. I put...
