Mark's 1275GT


Mark's mini

This is a 1275GT. Mark rebuilt in from the ground up a few years ago now. It is fitted with a 1380 with a four speed gearbox. This is the beast that will be getting the BMW twincam head and a new 5 speed gearbox.

Mark fitted 13" wheels and made sum custom caps as the supplied unit were pretty dodgy looking.

Triumph Guages

Mark got these guages from a Triumph and you would have to agree they look a treat.

Bit tricky to get working... the speedo required pulling apart and replacing the internal gears with mini bits and then to calibrate it you wave a strong magnet over it either the positive or negative depending which way it need to go.

The tacho required new internals from an instruments shop.
