Can anyone help with a wiring diagram for a Yamaha RXS 100?We have ruled out the earlier RS 100 model now with help(no engine number decipherable) and need to compare the alternator colour codings to get it wired up & running.Thanks.Dave.

Help still wanted re RS 100.No further on from previous post.Has anyone got a wiring diagram for the electronic ignition model?Its got no numbers on it as it was stolen & recovered but the wiring diagram for the '70's model is different so I'm struggling with the Haynes which I have.Looking for info re connections from the alternator.Here's hoping,Dave.

Help neede to i/d Yam RS 100.I have a rough one with no docs/number plate & the engine no is unreadable.It was stolen/recovered & I have a Haynes manual up to 1975 from a friend who has a 1981 reg.one & his is identical with the manual (may just have been registered late).Mine has electronic ign & appears to be 50x50 bore & stroke & has casting nos 31J00 98cm3. on the barrel.There are 6 wires coming out of the flywheel mag,7 with the neutral ind. & they are:- pale blue,black,green/red,yellow.white/red and black/red plus the neutral ind wire.These are different from the ones shown in Haynes so the question is:from the colour codes I have can anyone help out with a diagram so that I can wire it up to get it to run & what year might it be?Any help welcome.Thanks.

I'm trying to remove the primary chain cover from a Leader but the tensioner screw at the front appears to be seized in the alloy.I've never had one apart before so has anyone got any ideas on tackling it before I do any damage?Thanks.Dave.

British Bikes / Flywheels
« on: January 17, 2012, 06:07:33 PM »
I have two sidevalve flywheels but they are not a pair, they are both the timing side with the oilways present .Maybe I should try to locate either another pair or possibly just the drive side BUT would there be a problem in pressing the spare timing side wheel into service if push came to shove?Any views most welcome.Thanks.

If a Chief is stroked from 74" to 80" is there anything else involved other than changing the flywheels?Thanks.

British Bikes / Vintage wheelbearings
« on: December 04, 2011, 11:15:24 AM »
I want to use modern wheel bearings in a '30's bike as the cup & cones are not 100%.Anyone out there actually done it so that I could do the same?Hopefully with a gap bed lathe the wheel could remain intact.Fingers crossed,Dave.

American Bikes / Cylinder coatings
« on: March 06, 2011, 10:27:58 AM »
Anyone out there know if powder coating cylinders/jugs  is a solution to rusting of the cast iron?Will it stay on or burn?I don't want to keep on doing them so is there a one - shot solution to the problem?Any help appreciated.

British Bikes / Cylinder finish
« on: March 06, 2011, 10:23:05 AM »
I have an old side valve which has just been bored.What durable finish can I use on the cast iron barrel to stop it rusting?Powder coating has been suggested which should really get into the fins.Is it likely to burn off?Anything is better than rust coming through after a while.Thanks for any suggestions.
