The 50

[F5 Dave]

Never made it to my place I just dropped it in a field in chch.

[husaberg]

ahh so that's where Husi's frame ended up

Fair enough its not as if he would ever do anything with it
Scott says rather than give a dozen beers to you and Malcolm, I should just shout the Griffith clan the beers and they will shout you you guys later. I must say they put up a convincing arguement.....

[F5 Dave]

My fee is: Don't ask any questions on a TM add I place & don't send me any erroneous PMs.


but what a muppet. "Can someone do me a favour and take my frame to the BOB?" And then do nothing to organise getting it.

So what was I supposed to do then huh? Hunt around asking someone to do me a favour and work out how to get it to you, or store it for several months?

I had better things to do that day. Just inconsiderate.

Sorry Cots, off thread

Thanks Dave and Malcolm
found this too bit late

We're getting there.
My chosen piston had a negative deck height so I thought I would have the cylinder skimmed but the Auckland branch of 2T tuners incorporated decided the head would be machined into the gap, this was done and the squish set to 0. something very close and the head O ringed.
Many thanks to the man on the lathe as he shows real patience in the face of ineptitude.

I just need a 415 front sprocket or 2 ( NSR 50 fit ) , a water pump thought I'd try one of these http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/List...x?id=844950898
fit the PVL, bolt the motor in and cross my fingers.
Lots of work has been done by myself and 3rd parties so it would be nice if this works out

[cotswold]

Been a bit busy over the weekend, made up a bracket and some spacers so I could mount the radiator. I also mounted the water pump and ran the hoses but need to sort out a reducer for the hoses as the pump is 12mm and the bike is 10mm outlets.
I have yet to make up a battery box but have a place allocated.
Exhaust is fitted just need to strap the silencer.
To do list includes fitting the PVL and getting my sprockets ground down to 415.
This better work.
Hope I get it ready for Toke

I did have some photos but they are all coming out sideways or upside down ?

This is pissing me off, why are my photos all every which way, I even retook a couple making sure the camera was the correct way up and.............ass still buggered ( metaphorically )

Just copy them into Word or Publisher or what ever and then save them as a jpeg or gif or whatever.
or when you open the photo's on your pc rotate them then save.

I have had better luck finding front sprockets to fit the Honda spline than I did with the Suzuki and have now got 12 - 15 fronts and at the moment just 49 & 47 rears in 415 pitch.
The fronts were machined down from 420 and the rears are stock Aprilia.

I also whipped the cylinder back off and did the mod that Wobbly has been telling us to do plus Tee Zee noticed my ex port was not symmetrical so I have sorted that out as well. ( as best as i could any how )

GVR is giving me a bit of a hand with my ignition timing tomorrow. That just leaves putting the lump back into the frame, Wiring and plumbing up the water pump, fitting a battery and reconnecting all the cables.
Oh my that list is getting shorter all the time, I could have it ready for Toke.

I have these nylon pipe fittings ( originally for chemical waste ) and they are a perfect size to connect my 2 different hose sizes, is this a bad idea ? should I just make some up from some Ally I bought?

So what is the carving at the front and back of the skirt bottom supposed to do? Rod non std?

Rod is not standard, carvings are special

Just concerned about strength of inlet skirt esp as that port is big enough for a 40mm carb.
