That is great, Crassius. Must make DXing a breeze. Did you post a thread?I have similar for my CDI tester, but decided not to try one for the whole motor as the shaft may get its threads stripped when trying to start a high compression motor, plus I may get my wrist broken if I don't get the drill off that nut very quickly when the motor starts.
yes, posted a part1 & part2 since there is a limit on # of pics in a post - don't recall where, but a search on my posts will find them - probably in troubleshootingThat is great, Crassius. Must make DXing a breeze. Did you post a thread?
But for a regular engine stand and to start the engine with a drill (batt. operated for power outages, to be used as a generator) Use a ratcheting socket?
Changed back to the one size up from stock jet as i had in two sizes up (bigger) and bike didnt like it at higher RPM (crazy torque though on the topnotch of the throttle pin). Put oil in the bearings under the clutch, (bad move). Major slippage, almost never made it the 20 km drive to where i was going.
Break cleaner was out as soon as i got there, damaged a clutch pad trying to remove to get a clean slate behind the wheel. Went for a test drive, left in light light rain, 5 mins later ended up in steady rain in the middle of nowhere land, probably another 10 km trip for a test,.. Clutch grabbed good, but noticed a weird slapping ticking sound when i started her up that dissipated with higher rpm.
2 kms from the gas station ran out of gas, had to pedal in the rain up hill. filled up, drove by a cop at a light.
that about it.
...it snowed here today and my tires are more like 29" slicks. I hate riding them if the pavement is wetRode it a couple miles in 30 degree weather.
