So I bought a new clutch cable and some cheapie aftermarket turn signals for my 175 but can't figure out how to get the cable on. Am I not seeing something...
Matt, The tranny side of the clutch cable should just have a little jigger on it...little rod with a ball on the end. You don't have it the wrong way around do...
JohnnyB....You might want to sell those left side "plates" with the oil seals to the f-160 race bunch..... It would end the controversy over there, and could...
Matt, It is likely that the extra wires are grounds. The other possibility is they use dual-filament bulbs....Either way, simply hook one ungrounded wire from...
Steve, Although I haven't actually tried...I don't think my plate will work with the alternator rotor in place. I don't thik there is enough clearance beind...
Thanks Stephen for the info. Here's the new cable next to the old cable with the little block around it. The tip on the old cable is a couple hundreths of an...
Dang...looking at those fuzzy photos is giving me a headache. First thing....get a new camera :) Anyway...sure it's the right cable? Sure seems like I remember...
The problem with eliminating the case cove with a seal cover is 2. 1 the bearing does not get enough oil with out the oil being able to pass through the...
Robin, I've got a 25hp 175 that has won every race it's finished that disagrees with you :) There is plenty of clearance behind any seal plate that sandwiches ...
John, After looking at your web link I have a much better understanding of what you are doing. There was a guy up here that made it to one race with a bike he...
Robin, Yeah..that's all they really do is create an oil tight compartment flush with the engine cases. Original intent was only to provide an oil free...
Yeah, my camera is like 5 years old, 1.3 megapix- ancient but I found it in the street a couple years ago so I couldn't pass it up. I went to Vicious and they...
... JB....Simple to figure though...3 mm for the plate + the thickness of the seal carrier + the plates outward spacing from the bearing would only need to be...
Steve, I'm pretty sure there isn't room between the plate and the bearing to turn the seal carrier around...not if a flat plate is used. But I could be...
JB...I was going to work backwards....Drill the seal hole in an oversize plate, mount up the seal in a lathe turned holder to the plate, and then simply put it...
Actually Steve it sounds like a pretty freakin clever way to do it. Never really considered working from the crankshaft out....good out of the box thinking. ...
Hi everyone, I am new to this group and just some recommendations for my 1968 CL175. I need to get new tires and rebuild my forks. First the tires I want...
Well, I can tell you what the best tires are for the bike bar none. Dunlop KR825 race tires. 3 lbs lighter if you change front and back. I have no idea how...
Ok Johnny B you are a Genius!!!!! I made a seal plate out of 1/4 inch 7075. I machined the out side of the seal area down to .150 to allow the cover to be...
Robin, That's what I talking about bro! Nice improvements on the design. Never ocurred to me to make an oil cooler out of it. More than once I've tried to come...
If I can get rid of the battery I am ready now. What do I need to do! We have a CNC mill at work. It runs on G code. I have a translator from AutoCAD. I will...
