Bucket update

[Ivan]

buety Expert,
Now everyone has a copy of this book its really halepful,
Is this the first edition I wonder?


SO you done much to the classic bucket?

[Skunk]

Looks like it to me. Or an early 80's edition. It's missing at least one page that I can see (I printed one section for the workshop - I was going to photocopy my book!).

Got eveything fitting and bolted up on the AX. But I had to cut the chamber. I don't know why, but it wouldn't bolt on to the new engine AND to the frame. Oh well, take a mm or 2 out and rotate it a couple of degrees and it's happy. Just got to weld it up now.

Won't going to Manfeild this weekend. Won't have time to get it running tonight and I'm not going up there to find out IF it will go.

[Ivan]

Yeah and Manfields a pretty fast circuit yould probably blow the thing up there ringing its neck out, Is it the same frame? If so I dont no why the chamber would need modifying.


What size base gasket you running?

Sweet as.


I need to get a flywheel key for myne to get theflywheel on in the right place as at the momment its only splutering

[Ivan]

Sweet as,


I hope it goes good for you, you should start it down your street that would be your best option. SO long as your neighbours dont mind mine dont mind.


I have been reading that online version of the 2 stroke book as it has the specialty tuning for bikes which is quite good dont know wether or not tot une it more like a moto x bike or enduro bike dont want to tune it as a road racer as that is really high RPM

[Skunk]

The AX is only really good for 8000rpm standard. And with a 4 speed box I'd go for torque.

[Ivan]

Yeah I noticed that you need a real good power spread since its a four speed box to get any chance of riding it fast, I have mine running well now it is soundign like a moto x bike too whichis cool

Hi i`m building a 50cc Bucket,Read Bells book!Been checking a few barrells and seem to be a trend towards ,longer transfer timing and shorter Exhaust.
Any recommendations.

[Ivan]

Now I dont know the answer to this but just wodnering your reason as to why?

Also what Engine is it? Is it a RG50?


Have fun in your buildand post up some pictures

Rs50,want more power than stock.Planning on porting it,but ill need a reasonable spread of power.

Have a look at attached photo,not my bike but interesting pipe design!

The Tularis is powered by a modified two stroke engine out of a snowmobile!

I had a real nice Aprilia RS50, These engine go quite well I think I have the design for a expansion chamber somewere here for one ill have a look for you. I know of one making 16 horsepower at the rear wheel. I noticed standered tho they dont have good power spread its all top end rev

Now to get torque what are some good ideas? I am reaidng the 2 stroke book but just wanted to know some of your guys ideas.


I would tend to lean towards more of a enduro style engine as it is designed for bottom end mid and top they are desinged to be ridden slwo and fast were as a Road racer is designed to be ridden fast.

[Skunk]

It's mostly in the pipe design. Keep reading.
