*Update 28/07* Project - NSR125 engined C90

[garth]

Hey

I pick this up sunday from hellbound on here. Give him karma, he's a generous man.

https://www.bikechatforums.com/download.php?id=79524

I have an NSR125 engine, carb, loom and spanny in the shed.

I've drawn a little sketch of what I'm going for.

Low, slightly longer than standard, abscence of anything plastic, and with 25+ bhp probably instant suicide. Brapp!

Should be interesting!

[hellbound]

I am waiting ridicule as to the state of my garage, lucky only a bit is showing.


And Garth?, You are doing me a favour as it clears a bit of space to fill with more junk!

As for suicide I am a bit scared that the front brake is still going to be a drum brake!

I *THINK* MTX front ends fit on without too much hassle.

The leading links are staying, it's character.

I've put H100 forks in a cub before. I may bodge a disc on at some point, I also may put an alloy swinger and 3'' rear rim on it - First things first is get the engine in the frame and lined up.

O and piggyback shocks

Badman

But more drag racer-ish and less custom.

Well I got the bike back and got it running.

Then this happened.

I need to shave the rear engine mount, chop a little off the frame where the front engine mounts go and fabricate new front mounts.

On the flip side I wont have to extend the frame!

Oh My God!


Looks quite smart actually.


I really ought to find the headlamp/rear lenses and send DVLA Paperwork off


I know, I know, I suck!

Don't need the lenses anymore but thanks! No rush on the paperwork it's not exactly going anywhere is it!

Didn't get anything done this weekend might have a stab tonight at grinding the engine mount down a bit.

Righto. I ground down the rear engine mount, 3.5mm off each side. I then slotted it in the frame and offered it up before cutting away the original c90 frame. The engine now sits much higher in the frame which will help with ground clearance!

Chain doesnt look miles away from lining up.

Next on the to do list is make up some steel plates for the top engine mount, to weld onto the cub frame. I've provisionally made some templates out of card.

And here's one for scale! It's seriously light, you can pick it up easy.

[hmmmnz]

can you mount the rad even higher? eg the top of it almost touching the frame,
it looks like its floating in mid air,
keep us posted

[Frost]

Turn the rad 90 degrees?

[garth]

Rad was only held on by the pipes, I'll mount it so it's got plenty of clearance. But i like it sticking out the sides!
