The Helios Project (Aprilia RS 125 Rotax 122 Biaggi Race Replica)

That looks brilliant now buddy what cylinder and head combination are you using ? Are you using a vhm head ? Thats going to be fun

[Calum]

Cheers lads, yeah it's not far off now. Just want a few bits painted and I'll continue fitting the bits that arrived last night today.

@stinkwheeler Yeah it's Gilardoni 140 kit. It's basically a revised Gilardoni 122 barrel, with a matched VHM head. PJME rework the head to suit the barrel.

[stinkwheeler]

@calum fair play that will be awsume the 140 is supposed to still rev like a 125 will be good to see it all finished i do like the colour scheme too

@calum I hope that you slapped some factor 50 on that gorgeous gal, before taking her out for a stroll??? :sun: :sun: :sun:

Zeeltronic Ignition System arrived Friday evening.

I had the tail light fitted upside down DOH!

But now all the wiring to the rear end is done. I think that's the bike pretty much down. Rear is all bolted in place. Just awaiting powervalve housing to come into stock and then a new clutch. So close now.

[NINJA]

@calum I'm really looking forwards to the YT BRAP BRAP BRAPPPPPPPPPPPPPP vid!!!

[BraDT]

Well done @Calum that is art

[Mightyman]

Epic job! That's another one to add to your (now) collection.. What's next?

[Minia]

I'm not normally one for sports bikes but bloody hell that looks good!

[NINJA]

@Minia Ditto

[Calum]

Ordered the last few components for this this morning. Clutch braided line from Hel, Lithium battery and brand new OEM clutch plates and friction plates. Plus a few bits of bling for the clutch cover.

Hydraulic Clutch Conversion finished.

[NINJA]

@Calum Looks top notch dude, almost OEM!!! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

[Calum]

@NINJA Cheers bud, there won't be any bolts that will protrude through the adapter plate. I've got some titanium bolts ordered for it. The other thing that will protrude will be the pushrod, and that will stop the clutch from smashing into the cover.

[Calum]

It's done, lock this thread down The Helios Project is finished.

I took a small video to show anyone who is interested of the Hydraulic Clutch in action.

Not sure, but @NINJA Wanted to see the clutch perch for the Hydraulic system.

That's it bolted to the engine.

Back on the green for a few more snaps in all its armor!

[NINJA]

@Calum Amazing job dude, looks all set for the track now???

And I had to put me shades on to watch that vid and view all these pics, just wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy to many shiny parts!!!

@NINJA Yeah, sun was definitely out in force today. No doubt winter is coming though. Doubt this bike will see the road this year.
