The only thing better than a new mill, is the knowhow to run it Well done. Im happy too :) very cool indeed. Now when I want some machinin done I will not have to face the boys at the machine shop, all laughing, calling me a DH, for working on "pissy little ****ters", and charging me a fortune...

Ok, from what I understand you pull in the lever and the clutch will not engage. When you start the bike, and have it running, pull the clutch lever, and poke the gear lever, what happens then ? Does it want to pop into gear and stall or take off, or nothing at all ? More information pls

Hey, :) My Stroker pin split main bearing, piston and cylinder turned up today. The cylinder still has 111cc cast into the side of it, It is 67mm. The boys have inserted a sleeve Will post pics tomorrow,,,,,,,too busy playing now

WTF is a syncro stone ?

Hey, I got word from my trusty bearing supplier, he has the crank bearings we are after but they are 16 mm wide, not 15mm. $30 each. Still on the trail of the exact ones 56x22x15

I took the size, and notes you made, into the bearing supply here,,,,probably find out early next week. Let ya know how I go

Quote from an Email from a mate in Thailand Well, the problems are nothing is a great fit for what we have. Firstly the crank.... There is no easy crankshaft conversions available. Honda crank is the closest but finding 56 OD bearings to suit the small 20 ID honda cant be obtained...

Some really good information here. I'll write down these main bearing sizes and try a engineering company here, they have never failed me yet. Was talking yesterday to a salesman at one of our bike shops here, I was looking at an 08 CRF 50 for my boy . Got talkin about an old rigid frame 50 he...

No, I thought it was a bit out there. Just what I was told. Im happy with anything over 15HP, at the rear wheel. Got any more of those 28mm pumpers for sale ?

yes seems to be out there a bit.

wow, you guys ammazze me with what you know. And I have to say thanks for your time, and infinate wisdom,,,,,,,,,oh, and that beautiful CHINA XY 4V HEAD Oh both inlet and exhaust valves do not stick to the magnet, so I guess that they are(all 4) 2 piece. I rang up OOR in the UK tonight, he...

Ok , Sean said they maybe 2 piece valves, and If I get into the stems I may find one rattlein around the combustion area, not pretty Best to make new ones.

0.7 gram was removed from the valve face(inside combustion area) and overall valve diameter was reduced, and rounded a poofteenth 0.5mm. On the stem side of the valve, the sharp edge on the inside of the seat was rounded, and then polished up the stem Valves were reinserted, after a big wash...

Hey yea, the valves stock are the best I have ever seen out of china, only managed to get about 0.7 of a gram off each one. Weight difference was about 0.25, which was surprisingly good. I did not take any off the bottom of the stem, like I usually would in a 2V. I have done quite a few multi...

Ok, jobs done Sunday, finish port the exhaust, and polish. Lighten, smooth off edges, polish and ballance exhaust valves. Both of the exhaust valves weigh in at 11.73 grams a piece. They are measured to be within 0.01 of a gram each, thanks to a mate who has paint weighing scales. Interesting...
