Petrol Tank Sits very low on the frame at the front where it wraps over the top tube, some sign of fretting. Nothing appears bent, may just be production tolerances, what's the tank gap on yours?.
Oil Tank There is only a few thou clearance between the oil tank cap and the petrol tank side. Oil tank has a distinct lean to the right, looks like top mounts may have been nudged over and could stress the plastic on the tank. May have a minor leak. I can see the bottom mount (part 4, parts book) is asymmetric, turning it through 180 degs should shift the tank bottom to the right. Top mount, should the forked upper bracket (part 5) sit over the battery box web on the frame or is it offset to the right. Can't quite suss out the washer (15) arrangement on through-bolt (13) seems to be too many.
High Pipes ----- Yehaa!! they don't arf look good, I'm becoming a convert, Mike I believe the pipes don't both have the same offset from the frame and want to check they are correct. Which rear hanger has the biggest offset ?
should be more muck under those finger nails. Brian.
....snip.... I expect the GTO frames were "made from" the GTR part, so all the mods pretty much had to be done in a one off fashion. ....snip....
