SOHC 10,455 Posted June 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2020 to put air in the tire I must remove it from the bike and remove brake disk, I will make a an attachment for the compressor at some stage. These tires stink, they have been in my shed for like 3 years and they still stink, every time I open the door I get hit with a blast of stinky tires. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SOHC 10,455 Posted June 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2020 Ordered x4 rim halves witch look like they have a better wheel bearing, the other rims have a tiny thing witch is pressed in from the inside and one good pothole was enough to make it totally fall apart.

SOHC 10,455 Posted June 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2020 Also got this on order, sometimes when I crack the throttle the engine stalls or makes a puff of back smoke Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SOHC 10,455 Posted November 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2020 Ended up fitting new front wheel bearings, back ones need doing at some stage, the replacement Chinese bearings are a little less shitty than the ones in the wheels, I packed them with molly grease as anything you put that shit in lasts 10 times as long. Put the carb rebuild kit in and the carb was leaking out the main jet so I put the old one back in, I found to set the pilot mixture on a Tecumseh carb you bring the screw out till you hit max RPM then set the idol stop adjuster to the desired idol, then set the main till the engine is sweet. brake cable snapped and pull start cord broke, got a new cord and found the mesh for the air intake is cutting into it from factory. I will go to my old work and make a new cable. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
