Hey, great build, what size wheels are you using? Did you ship them over from Thailand? I am after a new 17inch 36 spoke alloy rim

Think you signed the fridge that night which is now gone so sounds good!

Thought i might put up a thread of a few rd50 bikes ive been messing around with over the last few years of being in QCR

When I first had it Bubbles made a chamber and got it going really well until i killed it.

Bought another xbucket bike and put the engine in the running bike and did some rangi mods

Change it back to standard pretty much and rode over a door or two

 

In the mean time I purchased a few other RDs and started building a cafe racer kinda style bike which is getting pretty close to completion now

as it sits now, motor rebuilt just doing the wheels at the moment.

 

also threw together a bit of a dirt hack. Blew the crank seals out at hamner so had to rebuild the engine just making a seat etc for it now

 

Sweet find! found out our families old cortina wagon is sitting in a paddock with the rest of Karl's collection haha. Was funny seeing it again!

I am bringing some but springs for this to Hamner if it is there!

When you came to CHCH the other Friday, unsure if you heard the shout out for ya! Skip to 19:35 ish!

Sell it to Danger, just hope it doesn't paint it HOT PINK

Have you got the engine in?

No, in total. there are no tubes just a series of LEDs like 170 odd i think on a metal backing

yessss! will have them on soon, just assembling last one now, then have to put front suspension back in etc!

That is what i would have done Bart, Or you can drill up under the floor beneath socket outlet and then attach a draw wire to your socket outlet cable and use that to pull up your garage circuit into the roof providing the existing holes are big enough which they probably aren't, but you don't know until you try.

i had water in my fuel caused it to run like a sack, put some meths in it.

How bad is it going to look! fuck yeah!

Bit of a small update, been having a problem with a leaking axle, ended up taking it in getting the bearing etc replaced a second time, still leaked and started making a noise from the bearings in the diff.

Took it back and turns out part of the LSD is broken off the side. Looking at having one machined or buying a new one. Also changing the ratio from 3.9 to 3.5 while the diff is in pieces. Turns out its an old LSD from the 70's still has plenty of life in it yet.

Ordered my outer shells for the three piece wheels finally. 8" on the back and 7" on the front

Good luck with the repairs!!! Put a 1G in it!

have a NOS drivers door if you are keen or anyone else? has one small dent.

yes

I am flying up, also know of a few others that are too

Think i may have one. Why not get it cut at a shop, holesaw will slog around a bit/wont be that tidy

When do i need to pay for this by?

I b9ought the same dizzy and had the same problem with the shitty cap moving all over the place, its just a crappy copy IMO but if you have a new lid that works that,s good news I spent $400 on an original recon lucas but now i have sold my 1600 engine ha.
