Another decent fall day here, so I sorted out the leaking oil line to the head, I noticed one line to the cooler was also leaking so I decide to make two new lines.

That is damned professional looking Paul. I sure would like to get there some day.
What is that “brand” you are using? And do you have to buy special equipment to use it?

Thanks Mike! No special tools required only patience. The fittings and hose came from Summit racing, great price and service. Parts I used were: -6 45 degree fitting sum- 220686b -6an straight hose end sum-220690b 10’ -6 hose sum-240610b
The hose is nylon with steel reinforced rubber, when I cut the hose I wrap it with electrical tape and use a dremel with a cutoff disc. The tape keeps the hose nice when you install the first part of the fitting, I use a little oil on the second part of the fitting to help with the threading of then together

After getting in touch with the person that bought the Tt from Pete I learned a few more things. When he bought the Tt the deal was helped along by Henry Hogben. The Tt was taken to Keith Harte where the motor was freshened with a billet stroker crank, and larger pistons, he wasn’t sure if it was a 650 or a 750 when he received the Tt. It was now a 850 and he spent a couple of years racing it here. He said he had trouble adapting to riding with slicks (“knee down”) so he sold the Tt to a new owner. Nice to finally have all the pieces of information.
Paul
