Seems that´s the way to go.
I´m lucky to have friend around that has access to some seroius CNC-machinery

Maybe add some steampunk look....

:wink: Heatshields etc are ok when driving but what about stopping (trafficlights etc). Must sit down (again) on the bike and do some serious thinking. Now, unmodifed frame, exhausts are some 2" away from kneecaps. After tight turns + frame extended cap might still be that 2". tahanks for ...

After some thinking and preliminary fittings I find it difficult to mount yanclone to dnepr frame lenghtwise without excessive surgery. Exhausts points directly to my kneecaps. :x Frame will be cut and have some extra lenght but still it is too darn close. How have others solved this? I´d like to ke...

it´s like dnepr variants (original - are there any?) it´s not the distance but speed that kills them

I´ve seen&used snowmobiles with reverse-neutral-drive lever, sometimes 1 & 2 different forward "gears". Anyone ever isntalled such a system to shaftdriven bike? Other way around is to use customised Aixam/Microcar/.. transmission. But space is the issue, they are too bulky for my b...

Been on busy at other parts of life, but building bike.

Anyone know is there way to add reverse & neutral to cvt?

Identical on both sides, according to this site:
http://www.elisanet.fi/tuomala/sidecars ... ts_fp.html

It´s quite simple and straightforward job. Few wires must cut/take away, ie wires for sidecar lights, and then mainly just unbolting mountings (4 of them) You´ll need some supports under sidecar since it will tip over if not supported propery after loosing mountings + bike itself will also tip over ...

Old VW buggy and 2CV use 6v-systems. Single phase if I remember right.

I´m about to go that foam"power"filter, olied, path. Must anyway either manufacture new intake or rip whole yanclone intakehose system away and it looked better without it. :roll: Definetly I won´t gain anything else than the looks by using those "power"filters. Still wondering w...

gotcha! That´s just one of my options. Havin "secondary" battery fully charged just for the occasion primary runs flat after some show off :roll: I sell, among others, mobile tv sets, chargers, radios etc that runs directly from 12v. Idea is to have smaller battery that runs dials and othe...

I´d like to be far far on the safe side when it comes issues having enough amperes available. Even though I´ll have 80A battery installed.

Blocked air filter might also be the reason for this

no problemo with power - I´m aiming to 90kmph top speed - more becomes suidicial attempt with that construction. (done 110 - it´s like flying - no thanks - If I need to go faster, I´ve left home too late) This project will partly be marketing my company thus tv + stereos + other gadgets + other fun ...

Altenator tends to fail if connected directly to consupmtion. Needs battery to even the load. Some heavy duty diodeswitches might work (assmilated from motorhomes/boats) Secondary plan is to have small motorbikebattery run by original altenator to handle some funny extras not so important to driving...

Have ideas having (car)altenator installed to my build, but still having the original system left in use. Two batteries would be the easy way, but how to connect original + new to a same battery? There should be some kind of diode or some other electric components beacuse otherwise unit/controller n...

faintly I remember that it´s the same construction that win/punsun has on their website, or had.

Still have:

just looked after vehicles salvaged by insurance companies. Decent engine (=tested to be a running one) + gearbox is around 5000€ Whole car can be bought around 3000€ and rip engine + gearbox out of it and sell rest of it, maybe with some profit :roll: . That´s french cars I´m talking about. Diesels...

Yup. Must look after wrecked bikes. The older the better.
Or just make one with modern tech and register it as it was new.
These pollution regulations within Eu are drag.

Other way around is to modify factorymade trike to diesel (=easiest way but also most expensive)

that´s my next project - dieseltrike with "french touch" preferably with automatic gearbox.

Too bad our local laws are kind of a set of no-no´s to a self builder. Must have 50% or more from original bike and build is "easy".
But time will show.

lubrication leaks inside engine to cylinder/injectionpump causes symtomps just like that. More common with turboed diesels whee turbo´s seals broke and it sucks oil to intake.

There might also be poor/blocked breathing hoses.

bummer - planetary gears would work but they are heavy big + cost way too much.
Some are available with magnetic/hydraulic clucth. (24volt)

Must take tour to Ligier etc cvt:s

Are they revolving at same direction? I faintly recall that bmw/dnepr final works different direction to it´s japanese rivals.

I got this idea last night and have been wondering about it for a day: Is it possible to have planet gear with ratio 1:2 installed between win-/punsun and dnepr gearbox? Prefeably with manual/centrifucal clutch included. (and maybe with reverse?) As far as I have thinked it would create decent syste...

It´s been done - several times. German version:


I tried to find pictures of finnish version but didn´t success

Ok. Thanks I seldom read those comments since most of time they are such like "whooooooa"

Second hand gearbox to Ligier Nova: 400€. Not bad.

New 790€.

Interesting.

I´ve been a liitle bit off-line, but that CVT looks just what I need to my bike.

What?
Where?
Setup?
Price?

Filter? Faint recollection from old tractor which had same sort of thingy

Could it be done to win-/punsun?

You´ll need some sort of independent servosystem, unless engine is always stopped gear on neutral. Clutch shold be operable without help from engine. If not You´ll face some serious problems trying to operate it with engine stopped ang gear on.. Unless You can jank to neutral without it.
