Hope its usefull.

Close but no cigarr, my friend.

The link is for contact points ignition.
I need to find a way to solv this for CDI´s.

Is niet moeders mooiste maar wel zeker weten een goeie:thumb die ondanks z,n looks nog niet eens veel gedraaid heeft.
Voor 50 euro mag je deze evt wel overnemen.

Can you please let me in on this, in english?
Iv´e tried to use the Google Translator but it just turns out rubbish.

14.5 turns is pretty good for fast accel. i think youre sittin golden with that gearbox

Yes, I figure that it should work but we will see when I get to do some tests.

By the way, what kind of rpm meter do you have?
Where can I get one?

ritze :

this one is with a malossi reedvalve case
but wont be much different with your setup

the cilinder was LC but un-tuned

OK, not bad.
Then I now a bit more what to expect.

I see your points, I wasn´t aware that there where difference between them before I bought the wheels.
This is my 10 spoke brake shield:

I have another solution wich I think I will go for.

I usaly fill it til it comes out of the holes in the side.

OK, great reply.

Now I know, thank you.

Great, thanks a lot.

I will make my SB as light as possible without any foolish things but it´s interesting to see the result and compare it to the factory figures.

Martino :
I myself have a 28mm Calibrata wich i’ve used with a 43mm tuned Creco. Together with a tube around the original exhaust flange from the cylinder. 28mm=>22,3mm
Best top speed meassured with this exhaust. Almost 90 km/h GPS. Take into account I had tested with lot of different exhausts. This setup was used in the latest exhaust test…

Couldn´t you just run the ligths and the fan from the stator without a battery?

Most likely you would need a regulator like this one: http://www.24mx.se/mc/p/laddningsregulator-12v-ac-150-watt/15474/belysning-och-blinkers/k261/regulatorer,-relan-och-motstand/s662

If you don´t regulate the voltage you will probably burn out of a lot of b…[Lees meer]

Martino :
This is one of the shortest reduction factors out there. Better find a longer one if you want more top speed.
For variomatic there should be any ratio’s between 1:9 till 1:13,5. For pulley between 1:6,5 and 1:13,5

There are some exceptions on the ratios, but they are very hard to come by.

Thanks for your replies.
Actually I…[Lees meer]

I have checked the ratio on my wheel transmission and found it to be in the neighborhood of 14:1.

Do anyone know if that is on on the low or high end of the scale?
I have heard of 10,5:1 and that is better for high speed but how is 14:1?

Have you heard the grinding sound when the motor was running or was it like that when you bought it?

How does the flywheel look on the side towards the crankcase? Does it seem scarred or jammed?

I guess that the Piaggio factory had a number of moulds to cast those carters in and some of
them may be a little bit out of shape causing some of…[Lees meer]

Voila 🙂 Charts you ask, charts you get 😉

Why do you want to remove some of the coils?

If you realy want less coils, you can also try and buy second hand ignitions with less than 4 coils. They have been made with 2 or 3 coils as well.

edit: the chart you need is the one at the…

ritze :
this is rather a difficult setup to say,

i think that youre exhaust is going to kill the power, becouse it doesn`t give you extreme boost @ a certain rpm
the pipe have got boost everywhere en is good for pulley,

you need a pipe that allows hi rpm and boost in a order of 1500 rpms, now you got power range between 6500/8500 rpm sort…

ritze :
the pinasco`s are much better in durability so breaking wil not be an issue 😀

OK, great to hear.
I will take advantage of the drilled tap and also use the full round crank to fill the crankcase.

Thanks for your feedback.

ritze :
dont do it you wil get something like this

Does anyone know of the quality of Pinasco crankshafts?
Are they as fragile as the Top Racings shown in the picture?

piontek :
otherwise , if you can find a Simo side inlet, you can combine it with the standard half cranckcase , so that you can use also a 1313 dell’orto carburetor.
In my opinion this combination should be the best.
The only difficulties is that you have to set up the two carburetors very well, in order to get the best throttel…

tnerual :
why would you buy it?
Only for the bigger carb?
I think you should only buy this cranks combinated with the DEPS cilinders…

I would rather consider a EVO engine?

Thanks for the input.

I imagine the stock crankcase is a bit limited when it comes to power even with the intake opened as much as possible.

Those aftermarket…[Lees meer]
