Re: Metallic sound

How long have you owned this bike? I asked because I see the oil injection is off, how long has it been off? Just tossing out the first thing I saw. I believe that is a 03 125 Wombat engine, not know the bike it could possibly be a 100 Road Toad. But I thinks its a Wombat. Yes its is a wombat 03......

Re: Kokusan

No.....the neutral light is already done...the green.
I've got a blue and a red light on the panel too.
Blue for the high beam and the red i think is for the ignition on.....am i thinking well?

Hi everyone. Does anyone in the group know the correct procedures for changing the hydraulic oil in the rear shock absorbers of an old motorcycle...it's not an off road motorcycle...it's a classic from the late 70s. The shock absorbers in question are from the Betor brand (Spanish) and do not contai...

Note that the bent end of the switch contact faces up as you look into the case and the bent tang is away from the ratchet gear. Photo 5 shows the ratchet gear w...

Re: Ignition

Hi guys.
Well yesterday i decided to connect the condenser to a external 5v DC power supply.....and now it works well and it measures 0.183 micro farads of capacity!.....quiet strange isn't it?
I connected it on the Magneto....adjust the points(more or less 🤣) and the engine runs.....
