    Updates are coming...

    But who can guess what custom modifications I will be doing on my RS?

    alt text

    I won't take credit for the idea. I always wanted to do it on my DT, but just couldn't justify the price.

    I then found a thread detailing a certain other bike made by Honda, whom did the exact conversion on these engines.

    HM CRE 125 if you're wondering. Looks awesomse, same engine as these RS's, except they ran electronic oil inject for 50% less oil consumption. Amongst other mods.

    But after not being able to find the parts I wanted, I gave up.

    Then I found this build thread on a certain other website, and mans was like...yes I'm doing that.

                      @ninja They're mega bucks though ain't they.

                      And probably not.

                      This is the clutch actuation on these engines

                          @calum The Magura clutches are expensive, but apart from the cheap Chinese ones on ebay, there's not a lot else too choose from. I want one on my MX for-sure, can you post a link to the thread you found detailing the hydro conversion please???

                            @ninja You won't like it, lol. It was using PhotoFuckit and all the photos are messed up.

                            I'll have this one done by the end of the week.

                            Here is how Honda did it

                            They've used the original clutch actuation for it.

                            Here is the thread.

                                        @ninja I know mate, but you got to import them and by which time they are really expensive.
