We are all just wankers floundering around in the mire of a mediocratic 2T wasteland - buckets.

Something not go right for you today Wob? ....

And as happy as a little pig in shit ......

Yea the genius was driven by a damn fine single malt bottle - but the sentiment was born of the frustration created when you think of
the achievements of Jan Thiel,and getting paid good money to have fun whilst doing it..
Though working for Mr W was something I refused to do, having Frits to argue with on a daily basis over strong coffees I would have loved.
The thing I am really pissed about is that my 400 F3 is running, and I cant throw a leg over it.

Well I hope you get some pleasure out of watching it kick some proper ass. Well done. Can't wait to hear it on track on full song. I want one.

Wobbly juice.


Nice work on the F3 Bike.

I hope the 400s work out for you wob, unlike the 450 diesels not so easy for dad and dave to knock up in the back yard, too much tricky 2t pokery going on in there to just guess how.

I think Ill just stick to the Wobbly 100 project though, I find buckets more than enough excitment for me, with a pre82 junior to calm down on

Trying to get a F5 bike going for the Grandson



Everything seems to take an age, just fitting a chain or gear lever takes forever to find the right parts and make them fit.

The big problem is the ignition. We want to get away from a total loss battery system and converting the alternator to an energy transfer magneto appeals, but it has its draw backs, in that it works at its best with a fixed ignition and we want to use the original Honda auto advance.

The plan is to use the low voltage output from the alternator and feed it backwards through a small 9V transformer. Then the high voltage from the mains side of the transformer can be feed to a CDI ignition. JayCar had a handy little CDI kit that would work with a points ignition system.



Anyway as a prof of concept I connected the Honda alternator to a small transformer, connected a diode for half bridge rectification, a capacitor and Volt meter to the transformers 230V side. And by just pulling the back wheel over, I get 80 Volts DC.

So it looks possible, now if only I can find those JayCar CDI kits that I have about the place somewhere!!!!!!

How come you don't use the 125s set up PS I know the crank snout and cam is different ?
Actually i have probably got all the bits spare here.

Failing that what about a pitbike inner rotor adaption

Re Wob.

The buckets (much prefer F4 or F5 though)are one of he last bastions of two strokes.

It's one of the last places where the two strokes are allowed to compete on (reasonably level) terms.

Robert say thanks Grandad

The $26.50+gst JayCar CDI kit

http://www.jaycar.co.nz/productView....UBCATID=965#11

The CDI capacitors have to be charged up from a high Voltage source, usually the bikes original HV charging coils do the job but it could be from any thing that can produce 200-400 Volts AC (or DC) like a step up transformer connected to the bikes alternator, and there are several different trigger options.

His Dad does have a reasonable RG50 but the Grandson finds it a bit fiddly to ride, maybe get him onto a Team ESE screemer later.

Send it down to me, I can tune it to completely unridable

[F5 Dave]

Looking forward to seeing a 400 on the track.

I'll ride the line trimmer and lend you a diesel
