[scotto-]

What are we gonna do about these stock flywheels? Drill them out?

Started on the jackshaft.... Not sure if the wood will hold up but it sure is easy to work with... Drywall screws and some glue should hold... If not I have the rest of the 4x8 sheet to work with...

The wood looks good and won't transfer heat to the bearings.

I did get an "A" in hgh school carpenter shop... Lol

Where you been Andy...

 

[culvercityclassic]

Got my oil fill issues solved, doubles as a crank- case vent.
Made a flange for the exhaust.

This motor has a lot of potential to be a hot rod for sure. The carb and exhaust are very restrictive. The carb has an insulator that is more
like a restrictor plate... Pic shows its size.

Not much to do with the flywheel Scotto. I must say this bike will also be a fun race bike for sure.

New pictures, as much as I don't like jackshaft brakes this one will get one for that just in case your azz pulls out in front of me chit.

I think the carb is a 19mm.

I received the rear hub adapter today, order yesterday and on today... Got to love Piston Bikes. My only issue is how ugly that sprocket is... The bozo making this item can't show some love and drill some holes in it...now I have to trip and drill all the holes. Got it all done and checked alignment... Perfect...

I could have this junk running by now if I was not on hold for the clutch....chit I would make that to if I could...

BTW where is the fool that was going to sell me another motor from riverside...at least send a reply....

It's cold tonight... So off I am...

 

[culvercityclassic]

I mocked up some K10 forks I had, they are nice but dang heavy.... Debating on what to use.

AGK show me some love tomorrow... Give me my Christmas present already

 

[BarnstormCyclewerks]

looking good. I'm thinking some clip ons or clubmans?

 

[headtrama]

I saw this bike in person very clean build . I might have to convert one of my two strokes over .

 

[culvercityclassic]

It just seems like I have been waiting for ever for parts from A mon and really want to move on the project before the first of the year. I did score a couple stems but they were old school and weighed a lot, drilled out the non critical areas and now its just waiting.

Working on a suspension type seat... Also

Great bike and very helpfull build thread. I am waiting of parts now also.
I am building a bike with a 79cc HF engine set vertical. I have just about got to the point of starting the engine up and test ride. The problem I have is how do you figure the amount of oil to put in it. I can remove the front cover and seal a piece of plastic on the bottom of the engine and fill with oil and measure that but I don't know how far up to fill it. How did you do yours?

 

[culvercityclassic]

The motor oil can be measured in, it's really not a problem.

Today's update: not really happy with worksman steel wheels too fric- n heavy and the spokes and chrome stink...who wants to buy em? Well I had a dream about some nice alloy wheels... Back 3.5 x 26 and a front 2 x 26 ... And looks what's on the bike.... Thanks VMB your a good man and I owe you.

This is the route I am going... Low and fast... For 2013

Happy New Year to all!!!!!!

Looks real good jeff

I have no problem measuring the amount of oil going in. I need to know how much to put in. I really need some help here. Have no idea what I'm doing. Today I took the side cover off to remove the governor. While it was off I cut a piece of plastic to cover the bottom of the block, filled the crankcase till the oil just touched the bottom of the rod bolts with the rod at the lowest point of its stroke. Then repeated with side cover. Both of these together only held 8oz. That isn't much oil.
Am I going at this the right way? Sorry for the post on your thread, just need some help.

Love the last photo... it looks fast just sitting there. Well done!

how did you addres the oiling on this? I see your new fill but no mention of any changes for oiling when vertical? or did I miss that?
really sharp looking build.

That's the same method I used, you can always add a bit more. The 6.5 takes half a quart. The rod dipper will splash oil all over that bottom end and it will work it's way to the head. I run other engines this same way with no issues.
