Cool stuff!
You've still got her which makes me happy! I didn't realise it was on D-plate too? I reached the big 30 last year with my KMX, that's why I treated it to a nice Wilbers shock, well my excuse for chucking £460 at an old 125 relic anyway.
I wonder how much more I'll have to spend before I could have afforded a new KTM? |

I've probably got some old pics somewhere, but it was never original.
I started with a crusty old frame and some odds and sods.
They're great fun little bikes though. ____________________ - Honda XL125S - CBR400 NC29 - VFR400 NC30 - CBR400 NC29 - TL1000R - TeeZeR Pit! - Bandit 12 - YZF450 - LuckyMX125 Pit! - Demon X XLR 140 Pit!

After blowing the engine up on a ride out last month. I've decided to rebuild the YX140.
Gone in with a new piston, and a good hone through the old barrel, as it wasn't scored, just a little glazed where it'd heat seized a couple of times.
Decided to do away with the VM22 Mikuni carb and tiny inlet manifold, and buy a 26mm BBR-type manifold, and an OKO 26mm Flatside carb.
0.5mm head gasket (as apposed to 1.5mm) has pushed the compression up nicely.
Took it for a spin. It absolutely flies compared to what it was like. I'd go as far as saying it's quicker than my YX140 race bike.

Popped to my pals unit to dig through his silicone boost hoses as I'm making an airbox up for the 2-stroke. And while I was there, he twisted my arm into putting the Chaly on the dyno.
https://scontent-lht6-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t31.0-8/22712388_554319484919081_2902178824571774939_o.jpg?oh=9c2a88e1aa52b5611184d366c60475d2&oe=5A72B6D2
As the Chaly has no rev-counter, we did a top speed run with the rollers free-wheeling, to see what speed it does in 2nd gear (That's the gear we chose to do the power run in), and then we could tell the dyno what the rev-limiter is set at, and it could do a graph based on speed vs a calculated RPM, to give a torque reading. (I think that's what the plan was anyway. I'm a dyno noob)
So ran it up in 2nd gear, it reached a top speed of 42.3mph, which was impressive.
Hit the limiter, and the dyno spat out 13bhp.
Then, we went to do a power run. But the dyno is for setting up 300bhp+ Astra VXRs, so there was a 3-second stabilizer on the rollers. Something to do with allowing the cars to boost up and stuff.
So of course, poor old chaly couldn't move the drum, and I burnt the clutch out.
So, new clutch is on order. Gonna get it sorted, and head back up next week for another run.
The gas analyzer was saying it was running lean at lower rpm, so with some tweaking, I recon I can push it up to 14bhp. ____________________ - Honda XL125S - CBR400 NC29 - VFR400 NC30 - CBR400 NC29 - TL1000R - TeeZeR Pit! - Bandit 12 - YZF450 - LuckyMX125 Pit! - Demon X XLR 140 Pit!
