Re: 90 engine rebuild ~ kickstart pinion not disengaging
About to do some fettlin on a wee 90 myself, I am going to fit a kit to it and convert to 12v, will a pk electronic ignition fit on the original crank or is the diameter/taper different?

Re: Exhaust slip joint
Only just put on a new Franspeed, and the springs are easily over 10mm extended to fit onto the retaining loops. Having said that, I would think that as long as the spring is constantly under tension when fitted you should not have any problems with the joint.

MB clutch springs are really good quality bits of kit, Ive had no probs with my clutch slipping on a 5 plate fitted to my TS1. However you will need arms like popeye if your riding around town as they are very stiff IMO. I have heard that the GT springs are very good too and are very light on the arm.

Scoot rs outboard disc
I have had this in the garage for a good while now, with all intentions of fitting. It is one of the early ones and have changed the caliper to the newer version (ss piston).

Re: what expansion pipe
I used a JAHSPEED on my 175 engine with a 22mm delly. Pretty rough whilst running in, didn't like being rich, but after dialing in she took off like a scalded cat. Good pipe, on the expensive side and had to wait a good while to get it too, but definately worth the wait. The tail can bracket was a b...
