Of course it will............... but then again............ Sharpy has the advantage of already being stationary where as the ST4R will actually be moving.......... :)

Graham, You must be needing something new that you have not already got from the extensive list of goodies I am very soon to list in the for sale section !

Some nice carbon just for you, unique frame plugs etc etc.

Did you ever get your speedo to work ?

Hey congrats!!! :)

Sharpy G 23-May-2008 00:02

just commissioned my Corse replica 749R fuel tank breather today, should be ready in a week or so, then I can get that nice fuel cap fitted !

may get a few more done if anyone is interested ?

the Factory Corse kit with adaptor, valve and pipes was crazy money apparently and they will no longer supply it unless you order at least 40 units !!

will post up more details when it is done

there is no breather in the Corse fuel cap, so you need the tank breather

I see..... but is there a breather on those other nice black fuel caps everyone installs on their 749/999?
Or is it just the corse fuel cap that doen't have it?

I have no idea about the others, the DP ones have a breather built in, but the Corse one I have is a race part

I don't know either, but i think the other ones out there don't have a brether too and still everyone uses them....
But let me know how much was that breather you ordered.
