10Speed Posted July 25, 2011 Author Share Posted July 25, 2011 That fits nicely in your Z's massive boot. says more about the smallness of the frame than the largeness of the boot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toucan Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Ahhhhh everything about it is perfect! Do you have plans to put decals on it or some small stripes or anything to break up the orange? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10Speed Posted August 2, 2011 Author Share Posted August 2, 2011 yup working on decals in my 'lunch break' today... something similar to the factory design in the recess you can see in the lower tank... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10Speed Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 Well it's all together now. Tomorrow I'll check all bolts, fill with fluid, roll down a hill and try to figure out why it's not running... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubblegoose Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 after i fitted every go faster bit i could to my pooch i had to pre warm the engine with a heat gun and bake the spark plug with a gas torch to get it to fire up easily hope you have more luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10Speed Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 have had a crank on the pedals already and the compression is pretty high (and theres no decompression valve on the 2 speeds) so not anticipating and easy job starting it... though applying heat seems pretty extreme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubblegoose Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 if i didnt pre heat is would just wet the plug, never bothered fixing it just rode the shit out of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archetype Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Just stumbled across this thread. What an awesome bike. It's cool to see the stickers in place too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10Speed Posted August 13, 2011 Author Share Posted August 13, 2011 cheers man, thanks for the quick turn around on cutting those decals, if you need a reference let me know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10Speed Posted August 13, 2011 Author Share Posted August 13, 2011 well it runs (and without a blow torch) took a minute or two to realise I have stuffed up the wiring some how the the side of my kill switch labeled 'Off' is actually on... Runs rough, doesn't idle at all, the lighting doesn't work and the brakes need to bed in a lot! but never the less I am pretty pleased... pics: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
