I know Jonathon (He races a single seater here in Scotland and I provided him with his next engine for the coming season)
He can do the zx12 ( or any baffle ) once he has a sump to take pattern from, but so far he hasn't had a zx12 to get a pattern from. he would need your sump to take a copy from...... he can also make billet sumps.
I gave him the R1 engines to take a copy from - its one of mine in his picture

Oh, and fireblade and zx9r baffles should be available soon

Hi All,

FYI I have made a laser cut R1 sump baffle that looks almost identical to the one above. It was based on the All-bikes sump baffle (as was Jonathans), but obviously much better quality than the all bikes item.

I am selling these for £39 incl P+P.

Only difference is that I do not supply a "tulip" as I believe these are not necessary. When engine is hot and oil thin, very little oil is actually coming from the PRV , vast majority of the oil returns via normal means and through plate. The tulip is therefore of very little value.

I have also not cut the hole for the low oil level sensor as many people remove this for BEC applications. These can be marked out on request for user to cut out if they wish.

I will post a separate ad later this week with more piccies, for now see below.
e-mail me at progers63@btopenworld.com if interested

Cheers

I also have one of Jonathon's baffles - great bit of kit . I even decided to get it powder-coated and placed some vinyl graphics on it.

It was a while since I fitted the baffle, but as I recall, even if you remove the oil level sensor from my '99 R1, the sump casting which surrounds the sensor will still foul the plate and therefore require some sort of hole in the baffle (unless you fancy some grinding!).

Hi Guys

I'm Jonathan, the guy who makes the CNC sump baffles. I offered them to the BEC list at a discounted price of 45UKP each and with the kind permission of your list moderator, I can offer you guys the same deal.

If you're interested then please drop me a line

I'll second the quality of JB7's handywork, having got one of his baffles meself!!!

Can someone please talk him into moving to North Yorks and giving me a job? I keep trying to persuade him....

Just to let you know that my own, laser cut baffle plate for the R1 is now available for £35 incl P+P. Why pay more?

Installation manual also included, e-mail if you want a copy before you buy.

Regards
