  1. I agree. Otherwise it’s really pushing its legality, physical engine size and performance wise. Hate to be the one to ruin 01 class rules. However wr200 powered would be great for off-road!
  2. Axle cross often refers to the universal joint in the front driveshaft, although being ‘76 this shouldn’t have those and will have conventional CV joints I would have though. The other thing that can make a clunk in the driveline of these is the supporting bush inside the steering rack. My 1300 did this for a long time. Heard it right through the floor. Nolathane/Superpro still make this.
  3. Supercheap sell new complete keys (put in your blade) and the programming tool if you wanted to avoid $$$ from Holden. https://www.supercheapauto.co.nz/p/map-map-key-programming-tool---suits-holden-commodore-vs-vz-kf200/370798.html https://www.supercheapauto.co.nz/p/map-map-key-remote-complete-replacement---suits-holden-commodore-vs-vz-2-button-kf205/370800.html#q=Map&start=2
  4. HI TOOMEKE THANKS FOR THE EMAIL I WAS JUST ASKING BERYL ABOUT YOU. SHE SAID SHE SAW YOU DOWN THE RSA ON TUESDAY LOVELY GIRL SHE IS BERYL ANYWHO HERES MY BIKE IM RIDING ITS A 196x YAMAHA YG5 IM THE SECOND OWNER.IVE HAD IT SINCE NEW ALL I HAD TO DO WAS CHANGE THE OIL EVERY FORTNIGHT EACH MONTH AND CHANGED THE ENGINE ONCE TO A MODERN OVH SINGLE CAM 110CI 4 STROKE UNIT. GOES LIKE A CUT CAT ON RAILS I TELL YA. JUST LIKE THE GOLDEN AGE OF RAILWAY IN NEWZEALAND REMEMBER THE NZR KA 4-8-4
  5. cdi over points anyday. No need to set gaps or anything. Also CT90 won’t bolt in unfortunately, they have a different bottom mount. Not hard to change but when a direct fit is available why bother The Lifans we buy from shore50s in NZ come with everything you need to start it.
  6. I was very tempted by this when I saw it advertised. A Lifan brand engine will bolt into this. They’re a Chinese copy of the Honda horizontal and go extremely well. Aliexpress and webike have almost every part you need to rebuild and upgrade this too. Longer swingarms, the whole works! Great project.
  7. My HJ60 ‘85 Landcruiser had a version of super glow. Some of them even used 6v glow plugs etc. Timer died and the old batteries only survived 2 mornings of constantly cranking to get it to start. Great white smoke chooching into black though. @mo999 bypassed the timer and just fitted a push button which I’d hold for a few seconds to start.
  8. I hear @Archetype has special limited edition TF50 parts / stickers for sale.
  9. It lived on. #inspo #noregnowofnolicensenoworries
  10. This looks like a hoot. Need to gear my Yamaha down so it doesn’t just pop wheelies in the first 3 gears and do 65 tapped in 4th.
  11. http://catalog.vesrah.co.jp/list/product_parts.asp Find shoe part # and size here. I tend to give the inside of the drums a clean and scuff up with brakecleaner and sandpaper to help with sick rear brake skids.
  12. I did the first year on a chooched CT90. Didn’t have first gear. It was fine.
  13. Port Waikato looks like a great ride. Keen when I gear my Yamaha up for highway cruising. Lol I’d forgotten about getting my truck stuck there. Since found out it only had 2wd then.
  14. My old man @mo999 has one in Kaiapoi. I’m sure he’d be happy to let you use it / have a sharn about how BMC A series engines are superior to Datsuns
  15. Different model to yours but reminded me of what you’re doing with these ol’ hogs. Come make my V90 work better pls.
  16. Moved to Tauranga. Drove this down from Auckland one evening. Got pulled over in Paeroa and told off for rego on hold, cop was a Barry though so loved it. Havent used it much here though, just been chilling in the garage. Carb needs a decent tune so started on that today. Parked up in town for some lunch and came back to this... #JustADO16things LF displacer let it’s juice out. It was a NOS one i picked up a couple years back so I guess the rubber just perished over the time when it was dry and let go now. Believe it’s around the hose crimp. looked cool on the drive home though. Left outer CV feels like it’s binding up at this height though. So juddery under power and engine braking. Can hear something going on down there. Boot is split so will replace that too. So, things to do for next wof; Replace displacer - I have a good spare here. Change CV joint / boot. Replace L handbrake cable - again have spare. Remake exhaust mounts - wire isn’t cutting it now. Tune crab. Ignore rust.
  17. I’m fizzing for this. Just picked up my Honda’s new seat. Soooo lush. Better than the metal tank I’ve been sitting on up until now. Have also sold this bike, dropping off to it’s new owner Sunday, so last ride for this wee hunny!
