Re: yanclone in to something build?

I haven't got a chassis yet. Was wanting to get an engine and transmission sorted before I get one but I'm now needing one really. Just whatever I can get cheap with a blown engine or no engine. I could have a kawasaki z400 of a friend which might be good. An xj600 would be nice too as there pretty ...

Re: yanclone in to something build?

haven't got a picture but i have turned a new taper on to the variator so it sits on to the shaft now but I'm still not quite happy about how far it sticks out of the bike. the variator is about 7 inch plus 2 inch of shaft. i don't know if this has been done before but i am tempted to mount the cvt ...

Re: yanclone in to something build?

Yea I'm unsure of were this part went. I have spoke to a guy who deals in breaking aixam and he has these of the petrol lombardini engine but he does not know if there are the same. I'm going to try and use the shaft out of the generator and turn it down to the same profile as the shaft in the varia...

Re: yanclone in to something build?

I'v just picked up this aixam cvt from of a mates who took out the diesel and fitted a bike engine. The kubota gad gone but this was only a tenner. Now the question is how have some of you lot manager to fit these. My engine has an inch taper but the variator seems to be about 3/4 taper.

Re: yanclone in to something build?

I had a feeling that might be the case. I would like the bike to be able to cruise at about 50mph really. I wonder If there is any chance of changing the final drive bevel box for one with a better ratio or a larger profile rear tyre.

Re: yanclone in to something build?

It's a ud186, guessing it's the same as the 186f. It has the starter motor and the charging system. Has anyone got any pictures or heard of one of there engines fitted to a bmw k75 or similar ?

Re: yanclone in to something build?

Yea thats along the lines of what I was thinking. I wasn't sure if there was any auxiliary pulls or anything out there with the same taper on it

Re: 1.9 Diesel bike rebuild.

an AAZ engine out of an early mk3 golf is a good choice as there a mechanical fuel pump so should be hardley any wiring and fuel and boost can be turned up to make 100bhp quite easly. A 1.6gtd or 1.6td out of a mk2 golf is also a good choice as they have a slightly shorter stroke so rev a bit higher...
