here is the cylinder work , I also added a case port

Rich

Max , Just a lot of wet sanding and buffing , not fun

Rich

Here is the webco 125 I built about 10 years ago , I used a NOS kit that I bought back in the late 90s I searched high and low for a spare piston , none found . I probably wont ever need it though since I don't ride the bike , its a show piece , I did ride it once in the Hodaka days parade though Rich

the Suzuki box advances also. When I built my trick 250 I used the tm 250 stator and rotor and started with the Suzuki box that how I found out . So I ended up using the supercombat box which retards on top but lacked advance on the bottom but by slotting the suzukt stator plate to advance base timi...

another reason for spark knock is the cdi box that advances on upper rpm that's a no no. Here is a pic of the reeds I fabbed for myself as well as a customer . At first glance it looks restrictive but the air actuall has a pretty straight path through the manifold. And I got the carb to sit in the s...

Here is the heads in comparison. I cut mine with a cut off wheel and my die grinder. And there are many mods that can be done , its best to call me if you want rather than spend a lot of time typing . Mine has many, Port work , reeds , UfO in carb, gutted pipe , shaved flywheel , runs pretty good Rich

Yes the head sucks , you can do as I did and use a ED head but you have to cut the fins to match the Sl so the pipe will fit

Rich

the dividers create a more linear power delivery. At any given slide position that aligns with dividers the air turbulence in back of the slide is eliminated , grabbing the air aand directing it under the slide and once. past the slide meeting another divider at the same position not allowing the ai...

Permatex right stuff is just called the right stuff

The Hodaka reed carefully bulletin will work but there is better now . As Harry taught me

Wich

Boost ports should be cut in the cylinder.

Rich

You missed what I said . I know the 97 is a 125. I was saying I don't know if the 98 piston is thicker than a 93 as with the comparison between a Super combat and a combat wombat

Rich

I still have GEM set up new in the box
Rich

yes a 93 and 97 piston will interchange , I thought I mentioned that , The con rod is the same too

Rich

The difference between a 93 piston is that you had to drill your own reed holes and the 98 piston came with them . I don't remember if the 98 piston was thicker like the 97 piston is compared to a combat wombat piston

Rich

Max I don't know what your porting consists of but a 100 ported decently can surely handle a 34mm carb and with the of venture dividers and a UFO it will behave small and perform big here is an example picture . Last month a customer of mine set a world record at Bonneville for 50cc with a Honda NS ...

You shouldn't be starting with your knee anyway , use your foot

Rich

I assembled for years before I had the tool . Its do able I used vise grip needle nose pliers to hold the clip retainer down compressing the springs then spread the clip a bit and work it over the shaft with regular needle nose pliers and one its over squeeze it then release the retainer . Its prett...

There are natural ways to take care of this issue but don't want to get into it here , call me if your interested . Statins deplete your body of C q 10 and plus many other negative effects .

Rich

Max , that cool one next to the 250 is niclel plated , and has a van tech front end and a swenco swing arm , peg are welded to the frame lower and farther back , the engine has a webco 125 kit on it with reeds and a 32mm carb. You can see better picture of it in the gallery of my web site , richstay...

A gaggle ! Now I know what to call it 8o)

Today I washed some bikes so I thought I would share a bit.This super combat I have had since 1977 still in restored original just port work and a 34mm carb I bought it from one of my best friends who bought it new I used to ride the heck out of it but never crashed it or raced it , what a greatbike...

I only have 9.8 miles on it so far and all feels good . I know the Hodaka fork will work great and it feels well balanced with the rear too.

Rich

Mat . I havnt riden it yet on the rough and never rode one before. I cant get it dirty until after sept 23 when I'm putting it in a show , Then on Oct 4 I'm going on a dual sport ride in Beaver UT with the Yamaha vintage enduro group . It will never be as clean as it is now so its show time
