2 Strokes Down Under

Havent even unbolted the seat yet. Should be OK though as it has been standing under a gumtree for a few years apparently.

Hi All. Just received a gift from a mate and it is lacking side covers and a kicker and side stand. Would prefer something local than going to fleabay in the US. Doesn't need to be mint, just functional, as this will be a rat rod... I tried a swag of kickers for my some of my other bikes none of the...

Since when have screwdrivers and bricks been used for porting cylinders?

Then a fuel tank.

Assuming that you mean a polyurethane type pre-cast rod, you could try the likes of http://www.engplastics.com.au/

Looks like it has a good kicker on it. Are they rare OEM?

Don't the Variable Vane turbos just have a "vane grille" to direct the exhaust gas onto the turbine blades at different angles in order to control the shaft speed and hence compressor boost?

Don't know how effective this would be at controlling backpressure.

And then?

I'd venture that the snowmobiles might not have the ports open at the same time.

Wasn't that was the early benefit of the 2 stroke pipe designs and the acoustics/harmonics about them, the supercharging effect from the reversion pulse?

Wasn't that they way to define the perfect 2 stroke pipe? Once it is the right dimensions and size it cannot possibly fit the chassis or if it does, the bike wont move or lean?

Looks good. Do they do other body panels by chance?

Did the clutch work before you changed the cable? If so, why did you change the cable?

the hunting thing could be a battery or voltage regulator thing, maybe check the battery voltage with the lights off then on.

No, not really, but I do have several rooted DT175s in the back yard. And a rooted IT200, and IT250 roller and a couple more rooted RZ250s stashed around the place. And a rooted DT250 and a rooted DT200.

I think you get the picture.

Spewing I didn't get to see what collector said.

Fred, you in SA? No, mate, Victoria, but things are very similar across the country. Some roadworthy requirements vary, especially the annual one up north but no documented history required. There is a national database of stolen and written off vehicles though. Offer still stands to help you minim...

Yeah, nah, no hope of ever getting them registered in SA. Just leave them in Vic and I'll take care of them. I wont even charge you for my trouble. Seriously though a compliance plate is the main thing and as long as a receipt from the previous owner accompanies, it should not be an issue outside th...
