Hey man good news! had a quick look at minimini's 88 build and i remembered he had bombshells and five-0 bars, So if i end up getting the bombshells everything should be good =)

Picked up my new roller from tina from dirtdolls today and i am pretty happy with it,
it came with these decent parts:

Now i need to start taking it apart and clean up some of the stuff.

hey is that a crf50 back hub? i might buy the back wheel off you if u want to sell it
 
yeah i wont be selling this rear but i am going to be selling the rear wheel set up that i already have on my 88 if you are interested in that? have a look at previous post for pics.
 
yeah man not buckled and tire seal is fine its just a stock hub with hd spokes and and powdercoated stock rim.but it has got some scratches i will send you a picture when i get the rim back, the bike is at the shop at the moment.
and for price i dont have an idea what it is worth, through me an offer
 
Hey guys thinking of getting these parts in the future and wondering do you guys think they are worth it?

Classic Honda 50's Australia - TB High Volume Oil Pump - 82-08 Models [TBW0226]

Classic Honda 50's Australia - TB Heavy Duty Clutch Kit [TBW0961]

Classic Honda 50's Australia - TB MX Performance CDI - All Models - Red [TBW0262]

Also thinking of getting some new sprockets just wondering what is the best combo to go with?

And also if anyone knows anyone selling a five0 stand please contact me would love to get my hands on one of those!!!
 
high volume oil pump not really need in 88 IMO ive never run one
The HD clutch be a good investment and the cdi is 35$ why not give it a go if ya havnt got one
And good luck with the stand haha
 
So whats the difference in between the tb heavy duty clutch and this one? because this one is like half the price!

SiK50 XR50/70 Heavy-Duty Clutch Kit - SiK50s - Pit Bike Parts

And the high volume oil pump is only $30 and it says "Highly recommended when using a big bore kit."
so i dunno. :confused:

I know that finding someone willing to sell there stand will be hard :mmph: just wont one so bad haha

And what sprocket combo do you run brett?
 
the sik50s clutch is only the plates and springs were the other one is the whole clutch,Youd hav to ask one of the motor tech heads lol to see what diff is as,im a bit unsure, might just be bit easier to put the whole cluch in other then pulling stock one apart to put new plates and springs on??
And with the oil pump anything other than 88 id prob do it, and they recommend doing it as most dont just keep 88 limmos , they usually build up 108s ect..and they get a bit more $$$ of ya haha, but in the end is prob a cheep option to have done .if ya got ya motor apart all ready.
Gearing im running is 15-39? or 14 39?,

The complete HD clutch kit will be a copy of the takegawa unit most likely.. the internal weight setup is slightly different.. Its more a easy swap than anything else..

I would just get the springs and run stock plates, unless your plates a worn out the sik kit might be a good option as it replace everything new, just remember to wet the plates in oil before you assemble the clutch back together..

I've brought a motor off some because they killed the top end , and i suspect it was because the guy was still running the stock oil pump.. but it was a takegawa 88 setup, but i do have mates that have 88's without oils aswell one goes strong without issue and the other on a really hard ride flat out for ages blew a head gasket ..

If you have a cheap 88 kit like a TB setup with the paper top gasket with the metal ring.. run a oil pump... if you have a takegawa setup with metal gaskets you'll probably be ok .. but for only $30 is it really worth the risk ?
 
ok guys going to go pick up the bike tomorrow will hopefully get some pics up =)
