something a bit different

That looks mad as f*ck :lol:

 

could do with a hugger or summat to protect that shocker.... looks great though

i built a hill climber yonks ago starting with a yz80 monoshock frame & s/a, then squeezed a 250 rotax in it, suzi x5 wheels and forks, z250 scorpion tank, xl125 sidepanels and a home made fibreglass seat unit.... amazed me how easy everything went together so easy...
only things i had to fab up was engine mounting plates, a chain jockey and spacers for the back wheel
good fun tho innit & you end up with something totally unique

 

got any pics of it..sounds mental

 

It does look fun

tried to get it started tonight after working out the mess of a loom..the problem i have is i know nothing about carbs...when i turn the fuel on it pisses out the bottom. and has made a royal mess of me paintwork on the engine. [ tw*t ] ...there is a screw which i believe is to purge or bleed the the bowl .. that is tight..any ideas

 

Remove the float bowl and check that the floats are moving up and down freely, also check that the pin it operates is not stuck, while it's off give everything a good clean inside an out

I think one of those bikes would disappear up my arse

 

cos the winter is here and i am a fair weather rider, i have moved forward with this project to keep meself bizzy..the carb that was givin me greif went in the bin cos a new one was only 26 quid...also it turned out the oil rings were shot so a new piston and rebore was done and the valve stem oil seals were done...thanks to tom for the valve spring compresser...it is booked in for an mot tomorow..hopefully the tester has a sense of humorhttp://i1206.photobucket.com/albums/bb458/turbosnail/Photo0217.jpg

 

looks ace that ned - bet it wheelies like fk sitting right over the back wheel!

 

its a right laugh to ride..only been up and down the street a couple of times..put a +2 sprocket on the front to make it a bit less mental...my neighbours freakin hate me cos the can is dead loud aswell....aghhh f*ck-em
