Jesus man, an update.

Post# 117

Engine is being sent off to get a rebuild of the bottom end with a port and polish. Once the engine gets back I have these to mock up!

Brembo two pot fronts and singles in the rear for the new brake setup. Came from a 250 enduro.

The engine arrived at the builder yesterday. He ordered the needed parts and should have it done this week. The engine is needed to complete the swing arm due to it being extended. Once that gets back I can finish the arm, then the seat.

I used to have a couple of these as a kid! Olive green ones. They were probably my first motorized toys ever. I could barely pedal the thing to start it.

I got a kickstart for mine :) I know it is not rare there, but here in the states we never got them unless it was on a Magnum(even then rare).

Just an outlet till I get my beemer ;) Looking for an 80-90s R100RT

Update: rewiring the frame for the new engine. I will be welding once it warms up a little more, currently under 10 degrees everyday here. I think I have maybe 4-6hrs left of welding to do.

Engine is all back and finished.

Ported/case matched and polished, new bearings, seals and gaskets, crank inspected, kick start conversion(BALLER) 70cc conversion and a hi-hi compression head.
With it being winter, I cannot use the shop all that much. I will have it all running by spring though. I think I MIGHT be selling it too, I am buying a R100RT in spring.

A few years ago in SF CA you could sell these things for serious money to trust fund hipsters. I fixed my brothers up, posted it up on CL and sold it maybe 15 minutes later for more then I thought I could possibly get for it.
These things are a lot of fun.

Still can, the prices are skyrocketing. Was going to sell mine soon, but may hold out a little longer.

Got some free time and busted out the moped, to save time I found a cafe seat pan already finished, also ordered the clutch springs and a new chain to allow the longer swing arm...Maximus is ready to get finished!

For the past few months I have been reading cafe builds and getting inspiration, also drawing plans and laying out the frame to tank setup. I need to get a tank in next to finish the bike off.

I really want to spring and get a Bimmer tank, I fear it will be too big and look awful.

I have been working like crazy doing construction. Too tired when I get home and too busy on the weekends. This weekend I am taking the engine out to get built up by a guy in Buffalo.

Wiring will be finished on the 4th of October, so expect a running finished moped on that weekend.

was that guy named Adler?

The sabre should be up and running shortly. Get back to this shiz homie
