Does it need to be an r tank? I just found this on AliExpress: NZ$93.37 | Colour Steel Gas Fuel Tank For RM Mini Trail Monkey Bike Z50 Z50A Z50J Z50R Motorcycle https://a.aliexpress.com/_mMsQyUT

Went from tray to wellside, it was 8 bolts, towbar still fits. Don't make life harder than it needs to be.

https://www.x-trail-uk.co.uk/threads/x-trail-from-estonia-vol-2-t31-2012-2-0dci-auto-le.64129/page-4 About half way down the page (post 74). Staked in UJs, but I don't think that's a world ender (wasn't for the guy posting anyway, but he ended up getting them bored oversize and fitted with replaceable joints). A replacement shaft from pick a part might be easier...$70 by the looks

@Roman same cross sectional area but more friction losses no? (Due to more wall area of multiple small pipes vs one big pipe). Dunno if it's meaningful or not but. May need to add on a few % bigger area. I seem to recall @BobbyBreeze going down this rabbit hole many moons ago looking at oval pipe profiles to get max ground clearance but maintaining the same flow capacity

Have you touched the pump? Have you got the injector lines in the right order?

Nah ive been put up in town so all sorted thanks.

I feel so special. I'd love a lift to and from town if anyone is able to oblige....

You say that but I know plenty of people who do work in their sheds with painted floors. You can lead a man to water but you can't make him drink. I'll leave you alone to go play in your dusty stained shed.

When you paint the engine bay, don't forget step one, paint the shed floor.

The nibbi website has capacity recommendations (I've got a nibbi on my lifan 125 as well). 19 or 22 is whats recommended. Did yours come with a jetting kit and tuning guide? Mine did (I bought through nibbi via amazon) and it made the fine tuning process very easy

Also looking for a bed/couch...

Im going to be down for the night Friday the 28th March. Not a Thursday but would be keen to catch up with the clan.

Have managed to wrangle a work visit half way there so all going to plan will be setting up camp at a respectable hour on Wednesday evening. Please tell me someone else will already be there and have chosen the site...

You've changed

Perforated roof means ute is out of action. I'll still turn up though and park in the corner of shame with all my modern creature comforts

I'll bring my lifeguard floaties. Another year in commercial corner for me...turning up is the main thing right?

Yeh keeping my eyes peeled for front end chrome

It's solid enough, bit of crust starting in a few places but fits well with the rest of the truck haha. Should tie in a bit better one the shiny wheels are back on.

6 monthly update. About to tick over 300,000km. Just run in. Threw new spark plugs, oil, and filter at it. Needs a wof so have thrown OG wheels back on as the tyres have tread (it's in desperate need of wheel allignment). Also picked up a chrome step bumper as I'm a sicko. Just test fitted in the photo, needs some spacers made up as the towbar which would normally sit in between the chassis rails and bumper brackets fouls on the bumper. Bumper fits up nicely though so worth making it work.

12 monthly update. Lol. Still got this. Has some friends. Got it running again the other day for the first time in a while. Doesn't seem to like sitting. Thanks to @Geophy for the work bench. Added some castor's and its a dream to work on the bike now, and makes shed tetris much easier.

Logo vs demio battles were the highlights of the day for me haha

I used a fuel flow pump with good results when I was running bike carbs on my 120y. A bit noisey (although i had no return) but otherwise no issues. Looks like they may have been through a recreation as they are now fuelflow2020. https://fuelflow2020.nz I had the yellow one, 0.5-2psi. Edit - Not regulated tho. Woops.

Yeh soz mateys, calender didn't work out this year. Enjoy!

Check the bolt that holds the linkage between the brake drum and the swing arm.

The lo-brid lives on.....
