Continued........
All the fiddly little stuff is happening at the moment.
Welded up the header pipe and made all the little brackets and spring hooks on the pipe/muffler.
The shroud now bolts up to the battery case and ex/chamber.
Back together again for a pose.I made the 175 sticker a little larger and added "Suzuki" to the shroud.
Sat back and thought...nothing is stopping me firing it up.
Mixed a litre of fuel,made sure i had fuel flow,choke on....3 kicks and ping ping ping!!!!
Ahhh the smell and noise of a 2 stroke given a new lease of life
A PE muffler is gonna be on the books as i hate loud bikes and jetting tweaks.
I'll have to make an small access hole in the air box to tune the mixture screw and then fit a plug.
I'll have to work out how many links i'll need for a chain and chase up a front chain buffer (there was a new one on ebay for $9 buy now but no email reply and was sold
)
Left side shroud needs to be sorted out,fork seals and boots and little odds and ends,front tube and then pull apart for a clean up and put it all together again (lost count of how many times i've done that!)
Thats it for today....enjoy.
