Suzuki / Another Moto-x Fox RM370
« on: January 18, 2011, 10:39:55 PM »
[IMG]

Built this up from a basket case.. it was just a rolling chassis to start with then i bought a rough 370 engine on ebay and hunted around for the rest of the bits to make a bike.
I'd already collected all the trick parts over the last couple of years. I have a pair of Simons forks for it also but i kind of like the ones on it which have a Fox kit fitted.

Tech Talk / PVL ignition problems
« on: June 28, 2009, 04:29:20 PM »
Has anyone had any problems or failures with a PVL ignition? I put one on my 490 Maico last year and it was running sweet til last week when it started overheating, losing power and became hard to start hot or cold. The jetting is good and compression ratio is standard and plenty of piston/bore clearance yet it feels like it's trying to seize after 1 lap and gets very hot. I'm thinking ignition problems??

KTM / '81 390 or 420 KTM
« on: April 06, 2009, 01:14:02 PM »
Does anyone know the bore size of a 390 ktm? Mine has a 83mm bore which seems big for a 390 and i thought maybe it's a 420? Also the transfer ports don't go close to lining up with the crankcases so maybe it's had another barrel fitted.

« on: March 30, 2009, 10:25:37 PM »
