G'day gents,
I have become the new owner of the HAR1 restored by the now late Bob Dimer in West Oz. It has had little use since the trip to Alice in 1995 and needs lots of tlc to improve operations. The biggest hurdle is the crankshaft and bearings. The crank is about 8 thou oval and has bad scoring. I haven't been able to find info on the original crank dimensions or much on availability of parts. Any Leeds would be appreciated. Thanks Ric. P.S. this is the only pic on the pad so far!

Nice photo gallery. Good in the field photos too. I prefer seeing this kind of picture over the too-clean and everything strapped correctly shots.
