THE ENGINE HAS LANDED! the engine is out, and on the floor. I knocked the swingarm pivot a little too far and it flew out. Cue the bike drunkenly trying to collapse. I got the pivot back in though. I didn't get as much done as i'd liked (mainly due to booze).
I've got a rear wheel for the Ducati rear end now, too. More bits and bobs coming off soon. Plenty of parts going, pm me if you need any!
Will update with pics asap!

I've done bugger all on it since i dropped the engine thanks to illness. I'm on nights next week though, so i'll be spending this weekend in the garage until the wee small hours to get the engine mounted. Will post pics of progress asap! ____________________ www.bikepics.com/members/jackcheese <--- NOW FOR SALE! 51 Plate Cagiva Planet 125

i've nto done much to it lately, due to my shift switching to nights last week and me spending 99% of my time in work or bed. I've got a very very very stubborn shock linkage bolt. It managed to suppert all 63 kg of my bulky frame on the allen key that was wedged into it. I might have to drill it. I've no idea how it's stuck in there, there's no threaded part holding it on! Penetrating oil, WD40, nothing is working!. I can't even get at it with a hammer!

my next plan is a length of pipe over the allen key. The lever for the trolley jack should work! ____________________ www.bikepics.com/members/jackcheese <--- NOW FOR SALE! 51 Plate Cagiva Planet 125

are you using an allen key or an allen socket? if you use an allen socket and a breaker bar/large torque wrenchyou are more likely to be able to get it out. Have you tried using heat (blowtorch) on it? ____________________ Bluespark Automotive - Diesel Tuning for Performance and Economy |

Heat, followed by plus gas applied several times over a period of time. Then use an allen socket in the end of a breaker bar. That should shift it. If not I hear freeze and release is good, though the above methods have always worked for me. ____________________ Bluespark Automotive - Diesel Tuning for Performance and Economy |

nice one on your project, at least you wont look like the sheep brigade on there fully faired "i look the same as every one else" bikes with matching leathers, T-shirts, boxers and dyed pubes (probably).
I love bikes that stand out and scream "IM FUCKING DIFFERENT"
nice one, cant wait to see it finished

Unfortunately, due to work commitments leaving me absolutely demotivated, knackered and generally unwilling to finish this project, i will be returning the bike to stock
It breaks my heart to say that i won't be enjoying the 350cc 2-stroke buzz.
If anyone wants a YPVS 350 motor, radiator, chrome micron pipes (need re-plating and a dent pulling out) or Ducati rear end bits, then PM me.

My bike is unique anyway. Polished rims, customised paint scheme, near mirror frame, seat retrimmed in black faux suede, chopped down tail unit with mini indicators, and it's soon to have a blacked out rear light, too! A Planet looks different enough as stock, and i've never seen a 125 get more looks at rivi barn
I think an 'ace will be next on the cards, to be run alongside my 125. It just depends on whether i can afford two bikes that drink oil at an astonishing rate.
