Italjohn's Typhoon project 172

Well, then I have recived my 125 rear Runner wheel.
Now is the question: Shall I convert to rear diskbrake, or keep the original drum?
I have to cut the brakeshoe pin, and it would be very difficult to instal a new one, so this is a one way road only.

 

disc ftw

 

im sure i read somewhere they have a thred on them i havent realy tryed to remove mine but when the time comes ill proberbly grind it off as im doeing a disk convertion like you

 

to get mine out i headted up the casing at the back, then whacked a socket peice on the pin, one slightly smaller, smash it in then twist it, it doesnt have thread but if u twist it the right way it will work its way out

 

angle grinder ftw

 

you knows it. cures all problems

 

Santa claus did drop in today

Malossi 172 + Polini rubber + side covers

 

Good old santa claus

Tell me john is santa claus very early or very late arriving in Norway this year

 

project looking good mate

 

I just found my "user manual" for my Polini variator, and this has this spacing washer that you talking about.

 

looking good so far mate

 

I have finaly got some needed parts for my Typhoon.
All deliver from PM Tuning.

 

Fitting this silent block turned out to be a pain in the ass.
I had to make my own "puller", than it just "slide" in easily.

 

Now I'm almost finished with my rear disk conversation.
Here is a preview
2 pc. of VX 125 brake master cylinders.

 

looks aright very shiny

 

nice,it looked well looked after for an 1996 reg?

 

Very shiny, looks smart. I had those mirrors

Nice panel, can't wait to see the rest
