Giz XR plz

Pics of mounting bolt setup and barrel height/gearbox length please

At a loss with what to do about the TS and its motor being a cunt really. Im over fucking round with the 50cc so the only option is go bigger displacement but still wanna stay 2T. Next step will be go have a geez at a JR80 to see how the bolt to frame/measure size but they have an offset exhaust port too which could be an issue or maybe a RM80 engine/dunno

TS went bang again which was dumb so decided to see if a mudbug motor would fit, purchased a TF125 and stripped it down with a few parts going to a mate to resurrect his one. Got off to a good start with magneto and sprocket off the TS engine going straight onto the 125 block but then when it came to engine going into the frame things didnt go so good. Motor fits the frame but only just and the offset exhaust port lines up perfectly with the front of the frame so thats not going to work without fucking with the frame which I dont want to do. So purchased another one from Fielding for the lowlowprice of $150. Bit rough and ready but perfect for just nanging round on, few things on it to tidy up and get lights working etc luckily I have the other one to swap bits from. Interestingly it has a VIN on it and shows up in carjam so could be made road legal. Its going off to live down Hicks Bay as a hunting/fishing nang machine so WOF aint really required lols

Fuuuuu so much want for a hillbilly 2 stroke trucker cap

Nah man none of those bits left. They all seem to be crown failure points, if had so many people as me for those same bits

Brown interior. None of the sc’d crowns came manual I pretty sure. Gotta use parts off a povo 130 wagon

I still have one of this im wrecking. Lots of interior bits left

The low seat height in a hiace of that era can be a cunt if you try to fit any sorta late model 4 cylinder without major work to move the engine more rearwards. A 3Y-E from a Townace van would fit with some minor work to move the throttle body which would give you an injected 2L petrol engine

More tutu'ing and getting better results. Whipped the head off to check squish clearance after everthing had settled, piston crown still had the faintest mark on the back edge where its just contacting when things expand. Very cautious grind with the die grinder to fix the touching and slapped it back together. Went up to a 120mj jet again an dropped to a 48 pilot which is seems very happy with, enough torque to hold 4th up most hills if I keep it on pipe and the high rev off idle cutout/splutter has gone with the smaller pilot jet. Just went for a happy backroad nang and it will rev right out to the top of 5th on the flat now which is about 78-80ks at 10k RPM.

Any yamaha dealership that sells dirtbikes should have it, failing that try somewhere that sells Yamaha jetskis

I do like a good Bj And I still lol at how much steering input vs how much steering reaction this thing gets

Your uber driver Chris is on his way

Just ordered a 13T sprocket from the UK to try get a bit more top speed without too much torque loss that I got from the 15T one and another Giannelli spanny/muffler combo to suit a TS50 instead of the TS80 one im currently running. It will be interesting to see how the power band changes. I slapped the factory exhaust back on for lols and it makes the bike so lazy, no noticeable powerband just quiet nangs

Im curious as to what sorta lexus 6 speed is now behind the 1725. Is it one from an altezza with some sorta flash linkage setup to get most the gears working?

Oh lols. The needle had popped the clip up when I put the carb back together earlier so it was just jumping round doing its own thing. Got it sorted and happy idle/shed nangs again. Seems alot more rev happy now too. Will wait for daylight tomorrow for more test n tune

2 steps forward one step back it seems. Swapped base gasket out to 1 I barry’d up with a ball peen hamer out of 1.2mm gasket paper. Success as can now run 1 headgasket and head with untouched squish band without piston touching the head issues. Got excited for a test nang but now its running like shit and wont idle/lazy to rev. Spark plug is super wet almost dripping with fuel now. Gave up for the day and will check the carb tomorrow/drop a jet size

Lols I could see curious looks in the rear view mirror of a cop I was following when taking the TS to work one morning. He changed lanes and slowed down a bit thought here we go so passed him gave him a thumbs up, must of seen my rego tag and number plate then got a thumbs up back and nanged on my merry way

The answer is forced induction

Signs under the crown?

Nope supposed to be bolt on TS50 big block kit. Im tempted to try make a base gasket out of 1.2mm gasket paper instead of 0.6mm that came with the kit. Might fuck with port timing a bit but better than blowing it up

Piston hits the head without taking a bit off the edge of the squish band

Voltage sensing relay? VSR?

Yeah VHT wrinkle black and then oven cure it yourself is the best bet. Might take a couple of goes to get it looking perfect but still cheaper than sending it to the man

Reeds seem fine but dunno what im looking at other than they seal against the reed block ok
