Project wolf.

[BenR]

Picked this up at the weekend. Needs a top end rebuild so going to strip it completely & restore it over the coming months.

In general is in fairly good nick certainly came apart ok nothing really seized in. However on closer inspection the side panels need replacing as there are a few cracks in them, the rear indicators I can't get off & the forks look as though they really have passed their best but not bad for 200 quid. Will update the thread as I go along.

You have done well san! 200 notes for a pretty tidy looking bike to begin with. Get the motor sorted out and reliable, and i think there is fun to be had with that!

[BenR]

Cheers! I had one exactly the same when they were brand new hence the sig lol! Needs quite a bit of work but I'll get there.

where you you recon i come from with the handle of hmmmnz

i dunno if i wanna get rid of any of the heads, not many made it into nz to start with,
the engines are still in taupo (home town) so when i head back in a couple of weeks ill see what i have in my big box of spares ( i want to put 1 of the engines in my monkey bike and wouldnt mind having 1 spare for misc craziness at a later date, but i think i may have a 3rd barrel in there..
who knows, if you can find me a kh125 barrel from the 70's an a model not k, ill do you a swap

Oooh that is gorgeous! I wonder if an RD350 YPVS engine would fit in there...

What size are the wheels? Are they 17in or 18in?

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

[Bikeless]

I think they came with 17 inch wheels,i remember them being launched alongside the gamma with the shellsuit early nineties paint jobs.

[ben350]

What you really want is the engine / top end from the RG200

The USD front end from the RG125 FUN

Now that is gorgeous, bought and broke one of these last year but it was too far gone to be economically viable to sort out. They use 17" front and rear wheels and would awesome with a rd350 lump. There was one bloke who put a cr500 lump in one on 125ccsb forum. But agreed, it would benefit from a USD rg125f front end and a banana swinger from the rg125f.

I've got this in for breaking next week, motor runs sweet on it and would love to find a cheap wolf to transfer all the bits from it onto.

The 200 is actually less powerful than the 150, was more for torque I think plus I'm not really looking to import from Japan. The bike doesn't really need USDs, having owned one before & a couple of FUNs I can vouch for that but will see what I come up with. The wheels are 17" pretty standard really, although the wolf had a marginally thinner rear wheel compared to the FUN. I have got some plans so watch this space lol! Thanks for the comments so far.

On a side note I know that a GS500e engine will go straight in as the wolf is basically the same bike but with different engine & panels. Maybe a DR 650 lump would go in as well but I'm intending to keep it a 125.

[twotakt]

So the rg125f bottom end is definately the same as the rg150f bottom end?..........I have friends in NZ

Yes the same as the 200 as well even the exhaust.

yeah they are getting tricky to find these days, pistons and what not are easy, but not to many are willing to part with the engine, i know of a guy that used 2 barrels on his rgv250 to turn it into a rgv300
you'd probably be better off buying a whole bike and then stripping the engine and any parts off you want and getting them sent back to the uk
there is a cheap bike on trademe (nz version of ebay) that has jammed up, thats about 100 quid

If you got it cheap enough he may deliver it for you? You not got a car?

I got a car license but no car, lol. looking at getting a car derived van come summer time though .

I'd like to look at a bike before I buy it, one will come soon enough. I had two rg125f's and a wolf over the period of 2007-2008, all were bought from separate independant private sellers and cost me a grand total of £150. All of them were also within a 8mile radius of my house .

you can still get the pistons over the counter, but the barrel and top you'd have to get from a wrecked bike, only 1000 ever made it into new zealand, and i dont think a hell of a lot more were made for the thailand market as they were quite expensive at the time,

the best thing as ive said is buy a whole bike, and get someone over here to collect and strip the barrel and piston out for you. and then ship it over, ill be back over in may for a couple of weeks, so i could chuck it in my luggage
