Bearings are on their way out big time. Gonna get them replaced. NO I'm not doing it :rofl: I don't trust my self doing it. Basically I found some on eBay. Are they any good? Or do I go for BGM ones (if they do 125's) or a brand name? eBay ones. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GILERA-RUNNER...yZ122295QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
there stock, and the ones you want, the stock is the only bearing avalable for this size engine (skf make a supposed c4 but i dont trust them as far as i can throw them... oh for decent bearings in a fuckin scooter engine
Thanks max (I think it is?) Will have a look at them bearings. Yeah I'm pretty sure it is the bearings Kyle. Can hear noises coming from vari and flywheel side. The bike is down on power. Wouldn't surprise me if the barrel is scored. As when it was playing up with the 25mm it was using SHIT loads of oil. Didn't realise. Yet I put almost a litre of oil in a day after I got the 25mm. My dad is pretty sure that it's the bearings as well. Not sure if it's big end or bottom end. Pretty sure its bottom end. Obvz gonna need new gasket set and sealant. I think I heard some one say you need a tool to split the cases? Or is it simply just undo the bolts and it falls apart? LOL btw, the person doing it rebuilds motox engines so it should be pretty simple for him? Thanks.
Looky looky what I found in my cupboard under the stairs! :w00t: (no joke!) Bought it ages ago for a typh engine. But I was a complete fucking idiot then (not much has changed LOL) So I'm gonna go play with it for a bit now LOLOLOLOLOL
looool.. it could be something else going though, when my waterpump god went on my zip it was slow as fuck and making a dirty noise
pritty easy way to tell.... whiring noise/constant metalic grinding noise is mains (can literally move the crank forwards an backwardss when there bad, not in and out like endfloat tho, actually forward an backwards relativ to the bike) nocking is the big end (new crank) and tapping is small end/rings should have had a new small end wiht the new kit so i doubt thiis as for the guy doing it, if he can build a crosser engine it wont be difficult for him.
Dremel comes out tomorrow. Found out we have one in the garage Got it shot blasted for a fiver today Have a quick go at a bit of flowing with sand paper But tomorrow I'm gonna have a proper bash at it
flowing with sandpaper LOL nah have a dig at it.. will be supprised how quickyl the shape starts to come, its getting it to all start and finnish in the right place/the corners that will have you wondering LOL
Wasn't sand paper. Was 320 or 240 wet an dry I think. Gonna have a 10 minute stare at some pics of flowed cases to get a picture of what I wanna be getting and then out comes the dremel (god help us all LOL)
