Post by: popeye on February 27, 2014, 05:19:11 pm: Ok, it goes, it is complete and original, the only thing it looks like someone has shortened the front guard by a little but not a drama, needs a bit of attention here and there.
It's exactly the same as GMC,s picture...

Post by: NSR on February 27, 2014, 05:36:22 pm: Popeye,
If it has not been started in a long time Do not kick it over. The disk valve can get rust on it and if you try and start it, it will tear out the magnesium. Also check for corrosion of the magnesium cases.

Post by: popeye on February 27, 2014, 05:49:00 pm: We checked the water pump and all seemed good took the plug out and cleaned the carby and 2 kicks it started, didn't run it for long, maybe 15-20 seconds.. So I think another project comin up..

I would need the engine number first.

Post by: NSR on February 28, 2014, 08:47:46 pm: You can enter on the day and get a one day licence. It is a interclub with SCMCC, QVMX, BMCC and TMCC.
Would be great to see the Kramit there.
Title: Re: Kramit RV3 Rotax 250

Post by: popeye on March 08, 2014, 05:58:18 pm: Better lock it up ya recon?
Title: Re: Kramit RV3 Rotax 250
Post by: popeye on March 13, 2014, 09:43:40 pm: Now have the Kram-it home and will have a good look at what I've got on the weekend, but all seems pretty good from what I can see at this stage...
Very plush suspension and a smooth motor and I don't think it's done a lot of work...
Title: Re: Kramit RV3 Rotax 250
Post by: popeye on March 14, 2014, 06:17:50 am: Going to try and get it ready and Registered so I can ride it to the Post Classic Titles, motor is a little noisy so I will give it a freshen up along with some paint here and there,the brakes and suspension seem fine, and I can't believe all the lights work, even the horn works...
I will get you an engine number Lozza so you can steer me in the right direction for some parts.
If someone can give me there email address we can post some pics of the project??????
Title: Re: Kramit RV3 Rotax 250
Post by: popeye on March 20, 2014, 08:55:01 pm: Pulled the carby off and gave it a clean, checked the air cleaner, which was non existant, so motor would have been dusted I'm thinking, it doesn't have a lot of compression, with a make ship air cleaner I took it for a ride around the MX track here at home and it s a bloody good thing, goes alright even with a tied engine, everything else seems pretty good, forks shock brakes clutch gearbox chain and sprockets bearings, fresh engine and an air cleaner and all should be good, oh and a tail light lense....
Title: Re: Kramit RV3 Rotax 250
Post by: popeye on March 22, 2014, 05:29:09 pm: RM85 air cleaner fits spot on, who would have thought...
