@Calum Looks neat bud.

Sorry to refer back to the start of the thread, but, have you still got the how-to for the kickstart mod? And does it replace the electric start or can you keep both?

[Calum]

@finnerz89 Keep both. The tutorial is on here bud try searching for it.

[finnerz89]

@Calum Cheers mate

@Calum did you see my post about the bearing cup?

[Calum]

@gareth_iowc Yeah I did write a reply. Must have forgot to send it.

Basically it's not as simple as: grab a YZ that'll do

There is a bit more to it. Diagrams have to be made, measurements have to be made and having the physical item to hand always helps.

I also no longer have access to the lathe I used last time. I need to rewire the current lathe I have got.

So no I can't I'm afraid. I've written full guidance on how it can be done.

If I had a working lathe then it's possible. But it took me a fair few hours last time due to the inferior tools. An engineering firm should be able to CnC it in minutes if you draw up a diagram for them.

[gareth_iowc]

Ok man thanks.

I've got a guy in mind but I thought you might be with a try as you've done one before

[Calum]

@gareth_iowc I wrote a guide on the basic theory. Follow that and you can't go too far.

Shit hot when ours should have a stand together at a show

[Mightyman]

You got it back on the road yet @Calum? Sounds sweet, show us some more!

[NINJA]

@Calum Looks cool bud, she's a bit smokey tho, was it a cold start???

[Calum]

@CYBER-NINJA It's a fresh engine, so that'll be the oil used on assembly.
@Mightyman Nah not yet. There is still a fair amount of work to be done. But it's nice that it's all back up together and can be started.

[finnerz89]

Hmmm i still cant decide which pipe to have off Romeu, i do like the look of the underslung one.

Sounds sweet though dude!

[Calum]

@finnerz89 It's not for everyone. I love it. But I love being different.

[Irongamer727]

Just interested. I read you doubted the porting on the cylinder right? But it turned out to be good? Do you remember what it cost?

[Calum]

@irongamer727 I doubted the porting on the 3MB00P barrel. The porting by Mick Abbey is pucker. You want to get the head and barrel done together. 130 for the barrel 30 for the head.

[Irongamer727]

@calum wait, what barrel are you running? 4BL? What bike is that from?

[declan]

@calum do the porting/ head work people have their own specs or do I need to find out the squish and such

[Calum]

@declan You tell them what you want out of your engine and they'll tune it to your spec.
