@slacker.cam AND @peteretep have rooms booked and just haven't filled in forms

comms with waikeremoana campsite aren't the easiest for swapping stuff around as I learned recently lol - either way flaggotz accoms are booked for original plans.

also once you have sorted this, check you have a oem-ish air filter and no leaks between. It might run without it, but you'll have a bad seize situation after a WOT blat.

Can't tell by your photos but there should be a rubber cover over the top of the carb that the cables go through. The carb won't run or run properly without this installed as it will be wayyy to lean.

Do you want to fix it the right way or the easy way? I'd suggest the easy way. Throw some 12v bulbs up it and give it a rev and check what the voltage is. Try different combos - 6V front 12v rear etc and play with the wattages. I have 1 old 2t with a 24v rear and a 12v front. As long as it isn't popping bulbs you're golden. Pic for fred of the better cub.

I think the only thing that needs a bit of fab is making sure the pickup fits in the case You use the stator base, stator, flywheel and wiring. It's been a while since i've done one and had way too many bikes in between to be sure Prob just check the crank taper is the same for the flywheel.

just be aware the points that steppybits on TM and some others sell are pretty average reproduction units. A multimeter and a 6v bulb are really handy for timing them per the honda workshop manual.

i would encourage a CDI upgrade on this bad boy if you feel like a challenge. Lifan parts should bolt on from memory.

Charge your battery? The old C50s need voltage to make them excited. They're better when up and running.

Cheers @HumberSS - yeah blue bonnet (ok condition) and boot (bit shit - if i find another i'll swap it out one day)

@HumberSS Nice. White roof even! Nah, you sold it to the old boy who painted it with the Bunnings Enamel which it still rocks. Paint back when you had it doesn't look terrible, probs didn't need a repaint. It's had three plates over the years also according to Carjam. Not as easy to find parts cars now either. If you have any other pics would be cool if you shared them too.

Towing duty again

oh and they never made the wagon in NZ - only imported - so there are a lot less on the roads.
