Re: Cylinder advice needed
DR177 will bolt straight on to a standard 125 and doesnt really require the casing to be ported either, so if your crank and the rest of your engine is ok a DR is plug and play. You will need to upjet your carb, and a 22 tooth clutch sprocket will help you make the most of the extra "grunt"...

Mudguard modified to clear the shock.

Re: Bajaj project "monkey on my back"
Fitted a YSS PK shock to the modified PX fork. Next job is making the Bajaj mudguard fit. Might have to cut and scallop the guard where the top of the shock is. http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d84/johndregg/Mobile%20Uploads/2017-03/0C86B595-455E-42B5-913A-BEC8C7DEB6DB.jpg http://i33.photobucket.co...

Re: SIP Performer Tyres?
Made by Vee rubber always put me off. But I've never fully road tested a set.

Re: SIL crank
Wow! I know this batch of six engines and the other five are still running fine as far as I know. Looks like this was the "bad" one. At least the casing escaped damage which is amazing in itself. Throw a nice strong crank in there and put it down to experience!
