Yeah...i should hehe. I made a list of parts i need to get this thing running again. Only small parts and stuff are left to buy but yet still around €200. I planned to do everything perfectly right this time and not to cut back on parts. Everything that was worn is and will be replaced. Everything that affects functionality, handling and power is assessed and taken care of. And everything besides looks will function like new. I going for the sleeper look. Fast, stealthy but most of all really innocent looking. Now im waiting for my money and then i can order my stuff and hopefully have it running somewhere in the next couple of weeks. Taking things slowly, not rushing and just going for the best result. Things im gonna order this week: - Inner fork legs - Fork seals - New cylinder studs - Clutch springs - Front wheel bearings (maybe ceramic...yet to decide) - Front wheel axle - Athena belt (7mm longer than stock belt) - Air filter oil Im also gonna use those little round things in the cvt cover for alignment, what are they called?...Gonna use those for aligning the cilinder with the cases and also in the head to align the head with the cylinder. Well anyway, when the parts are ordered and in the mail i can start building up the scoot  |

Dowel pins yes! haha! Placed my parts order today! Also bought 10 liters of Castrol Power RS, also for the Cr500. And bought a backlit rpm/hour gauge from aliexpress...hope that works out. A friend of mine is in california right now and when he comes back to Holland he brings back for me a trailtech TTO. So now we wait... |

I hope so. One thing i hate about it is that it doesn't have a backlight.
What cht readings should i look at with a aircooled 70. I guess readings are higher with an alu, bridged port, high comp, midrace 70 than a iron 90 or watercooled 50?

My set up runs in the 370-380 range at wot. That's with a reading with the ring around the plug.

And how much at cruising speed? Let's say around 45/50mph? Because i will do a lot of 1/2 throttle cuising at 80 kph B roads.

I want to say cruising was in the 330 range but I could be mistaken. The gauge is off right now. I've got to hook it back up for my summer down jet and I'll get you better numbers.

Today got another batch of parts in the mail. Right now im waiting on a set of clutch springs, real pulley bearing kit, front wheel axle and a contra nut for the steering stem. So this week or the next i can start building it up. Today i wanted to mount the piston and cylinder. Wanted to measure the ring gap...couldn't find my feeler gauge(s). I have two...both gone...  ...annoying... Didn't know what to do so i made a pic of the exhaust port. Before:  After  Nothing special but now i don't have to think about it anymore. One less concern  |

Assembled the cylinder tonight.  And again not without hassle. I noticed the piston was hitting the JB weld at BDC so i had to cut some from the piston since i didn't want to open up the cases again. Right = normal piston Left = cut piston  With the previous engine i used a .30mm gasket and that gave me a 0.6mm squish. I used a new .30mm gasket again but this time it gave me 0.42 squish (?) . Checked on four spots.  It's a bit strange...but otherwise...maybe cylinders and pistons have some kind of margin and i got the outer most margins which gives me a 0.2 difference? Anyway..i used s .50mm gasket and measured 0.65mm squish. That might get down to 0.6 when i do the final torque down after the first warm up.    This cylinder needs some little work around the port edges. I'll take care of that later. Oh btw, did also a port timing check with a degree wheel  With 0.50mm gasket, 0.65mm squish: Exhaust: 190 Transfers: 128 Booster: 120 |
