Diamond Back Harry Leary Turbo.

[munners]

4th one ever made. ORIGINAL SURVIVOR CONDITION. All exact spec apart from the tyres. 

Was previously Danny Silverstreak's.  Dont worry Dan.....she will be cherished for ever!

seen this in the flesh and it's well cool 

[Bob_Acid]

Cool, love the little gay bag too 

[munners]

Gotta keep it camp. 

[sparky]

Very nice, saw that myself when I picked up the Turbo Lite.

You'll need to change the seat clamp and pedals as well.

I see your point on the seat clamp but what up with the pedals?

Pedals on a Gen 1 Leary were Chrome cage, Black insert SR MP-134

One's in the picture are DB MKS, as found on Silver Streak (aka MX pedals)

Wow .. the know it all sparky didnt even see the wrong chainring  
everytime somebody shows a Diamond back, sparky has too chirp-up to remind us all he's the DB expert & pick it to pieces..

And sort out them levers 

[munners]

No war lads.

Every thread i do these days creates havoc!

If the parts are incorrect then its my loss. I was told it was era corre ;)ct. I am sure Dan sold it to the best of his knowledge. Top bloke. 
 
I will just need your guys help to get it right! 

[scary_leary]

No war.. just telling it as it is..
He wants to resort to name calling.. fine, doesnt bother me.

[danny silverstreak]

i was purely a custodian for a few years , orangezippy had it before me

Look fella,

Your comments were neither required or constructive and typical of the minority, directing them at me in the way you did only provoked a response.

I was already having a PM conversation with Munner prior to your reply.

Instead of telling it how you see it, not how it is, try not treating the thread as a way to have a go at someone and back off.

[snav69]

Is the seat clamp the same as this one  I was told by db-oldskool that these were also fitted to the Leary Turbo  It was chrome but it was shot at and easy to pick off , so i did , and polished it 




 

BTW - Very nice motor is that 

[MartyC]

The levers only need putting in the right position, further down the bars so that the lever itself is horizontal with the grip other than that it looks great to me  .

[sparky]

Snav,

To be totally honest fella, I've only ever gone by spec sheets and from what I understand the clamp you show was an aftermarket product.

All the Leary's I've seen in official brochures show the SR clamp.

[magna13]
