Re booting the sm 50 am6 project

@declan make that clearer it's full wrapped around the shaft but it's not a very tight seal what do you think?

[Calum]

@declan There should be some resistance bud.

[declan]

@Calum hmmm okay maybe I'll try getting a new one now would you reckon my clutch plates need changing since I lose all power past 2nd gear?

[Calum]

@declan You would have to measure their thickness and check it against the specified tolerances

[declan]

@Calum thanks for your time.

[declan]

@declan

Fired right up and running good more to follow

[declan]

@Calum i believe that my power problem is severe clutch drag as the lever only has around 2 inches of pull and it's no where near enough

[declan]

@Calum gotta love that sound

very nice

[declan]

@Mightyman thank you hopefully it actually rides now and if it does there will soon be a nice big bore on it

I had a proper Minarelli AM6 CH Racing WXE50 when I was 16.

It had a 12mm Dellorto Carb!! lol

It only did 55mph, but it was the fastest 50cc to get there I've ever known.

I'll always miss this motorcycle...

[declan]

@Darty mines struggling for power I've now sorted the clutch but it's still struggling not sure what it could be, the carb on this is like. A pea shooter lol

[Calum]

@Darty Pretty sure my RS had a bigger carb than that at 20mm...

[declan]

@Calum if memory serves me I've got a dellorto 17.5 auto choke model but converted to manual

[NINJA]

@declan 2T screamer - the best motorbike sound for-sure!!!

[declan]
