Does anyone know what size tap to use on the points cover? i really dont like them rivits in there, too much of a hassle. :smoke

Just get a self-tapping screw... :D

Dude...You don't use a tap. Use a small drill bit, then progressively larger bits till you can pick out the remnanents with a needle nose.

Drill the rivets out with a 5/32" drill bit

you will the see that a cover is screwed into the posts that hold the hall sensor pick up plate in situ.

undo the screws and take them down to your local hardware store and get some new ones a bit longer...shit get a few lengths....

You can then screw the cover back on...the only prob bein that is 90 degrees out...

get yaself a big twin one, as the holes are 90 degrees different to a sporty and abbra cadabra....ya done

Or get one of these. Much cooler than stock

good info from all, and thanks for the speedy replies. i will keep ya posted as to what i will do.
i still think this is the best site ever.
