Identify these bikes! / Re: mini buffalo?? any one ever heard of them before..
« on: November 11, 2008, 06:49:57 AM »
well i managed to get that pesky pin free... very easily infact,
good old side cutters did the trick no bother,
bearing stayed in the case and the crank slid through,
hammered the bearing free,
and bobs ya uncle,
and here is the culpret...  32years with out being started and this is what you get




i did some measuring and found that the bore is 42mm and the stroke is 43,
so that makes this bad boy a staggering 59.57cc  wooo hoo.
can you feel it???

ok progress today is that i managed to split the cases...
very easily infact, another first time for me was that there was a gasket between the crankcases,
that made the job very easy indeed,
here is the evillness that is my bottom end :cry:

so crank cases split i have another problem, there is a little pin that is on the right hand of the crank that is there to spin the gear that spins the disc valve,  which means i can't get the crank past the damn bearing...
am i right in thinking that the bearing should move out wards and not into the bottom end??
it has a circlip in place which makes me think that


well thats it for today

nah im back in new zealand now,
the previous owner (the guy who bought it from new)
seemed to think it was inported into new zealand by general motors,
and that it was based on a yamaha engine when the thaiwanese bought yamahas tooling gear,
i suspect its a kawasaki or suzuki copy
it has the rotary disc carb system with the carb under the right cover, similar to the ts50

bottom end is seized at the moment and i have stiped down to cases


ill have to buy some splitters today and see if i can find someone who will supply me with some new bearings

check that the diaphragm in the carb is ok and not torn (im assuming its a cv type carb)
check the valve clearances (tappet gap)

what a complete bugger.
i couldnt find the parts i wanted through david silver spares
so i placed an order through mrcyle in the states and had to pay through western union "as we can't verify forign credit cards" (in the broadest north Carolina accent you have ever heard) so off i went to western union and paid through the nose for there "services" for the money to get sent through to the us.
only to get a email today saying "we can't source the parts you reuire"
wtf!!!! why he hell didnt you tell me that when i placed the damn order with you f£*kers and before i sent money to you!!!!
well any way, no im at a loss at getting the parts,
so does anyone know where i can get  parts 19 and 13


the part numbers are
14611-369-000  
and 06031-369-000

any help tracking down these elusive parts would be greatly appreciated :d
cheers

Japanese Bikes / Re: Honda cm250 front disc convertion
« on: October 12, 2007, 11:29:32 PM »
i'd say that it would be a straight swap,
the measurements on my cb250 are
fork distance apart 175 center to center
length from the top of the fork to the center of the axle is 690mm
the fork width is 32mm
thats for a g5, the super dreams may be different, but i doubt it :D
if the width is different then buy the top and bottom yokes as well and swap the whole front end :D

« on: October 08, 2007, 08:48:17 AM »
yep you need the forks from another bike as well as the wheel along with the disc and caliper and master cylinder
something like this

not really in the style of the bike though
or the cb250g5 front end
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Honda-CB250G-Forks_W0QQitemZ320166313465QQihZ011QQcategoryZ10490QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Japanese Bikes / Re: Yamaha at2 (what is it)
« on: October 06, 2007, 03:21:20 AM »
they are the same as the ct1 -3 and the dt1-3 except that the ct ran a 175cc engine and the dt ran a 250cc  they  only came out for 3 years the at1 at2 and at3 71-73.
the a,c,dt siries bikes were the first of yamaha's "torque induction" engines meaning that they had expansion chambers instead of the previous trumpet exhausts,

and hats about all i know,
i think after they finished being produced they moved on to the it and tt bikes
