ZA50 clutches for my Puch No. 5 project
Got my extra set of ZA50 clutches and replaced the springs and links similar to what I did here:
The tool that can make it happen |
Sprinter Pinto
Frame is so minimal |
Parts from Puchhop.de in Neatherlands
In the meantime, ordering parts like crazy for my cousin's build. Couldn't pass up the strong dollar and week euro. On top of that a 10% discount Easter sale!! Got new black powder coated stars, 260mm shocks, and a HK racing clutch!!
Sent my crank and case to mopedcrankworks to get my Top Racing roller bearing con-rod and bearing races pressed in. This is the second crank Chris did for me and it turned out well as usually. Pretty spot on tolerance work. I highly recommend his services. This is going into my Gila ZA50 Puch No.5 build. Stay tuned for whats to come...
Brooks Seat
Ordered a Brooks Seat for my Puch No. 5 builds. The brown leather seat action compliments the leather I bought for handle grips. But these seats are expensive. I might have to chain the seat to my bike!!
Match porting ZA50 Gila after all these years
Finally got a chance to do my ZA50 Gila right. I've been running this motor with very minimal match porting for years. All I did was port the transfers as big as I could go without compromising the sealing surface on the sides and honed the case to accept the cylinder and piston. That's it!! And I've been blasting around Hawaii and Japan with this set up with no incidents. I finally was able to Alumiweld the sides to add material so I could truly match the sizes of the transfer ports.
Ghetto machining
I kind of F-ed up the sealing surface of my case when I added weld. Found a ghetto style from a pretty ghetto dude on Youtube on how to take down high spots without a machine. Surprisingly it work. I got ghetto love...
