Italjohn's Typhoon project 172

I did order the adapter for the Typhoon, and as you can remove the two spacers, I think it will fit the original disk.
I have not tested this, so I can't garantee anything.

I have checked the text, and it will fit 190, 240 og 280mm disks.

 

Yepp me too, just look at your avatar

 

I was going to change the variator today, and think I should use the old Runner variator.
A discovered that the old Typhoon has a spacer just inside the variator.
This spacer is "build in" the Runner variator, with the result the this wont fit unless I modify the oilbelt cover.

Series 3 engine. Look at the oilbelt cover.



Series 1 engine. Much smaller hole in the oilbelt cover.



Here are the variators.



The question is:
Can I use the back plate on the original variator, and svap this with the Runner variator back plate?

Or is it best to modify the oilbelt cover?

 

I did also installed the new forks today.

 

project is coming along nicely cant wait to see end product

 

Now I have install my new parts washer, and a new shelf.
What do you think, could come in handy

Re: My Typhoon project 172

Than the pallet from Germany has arrived
I have got new panels + some special tools, and vents + seatcover + front for my Runner.
And a lot of wheels :msn1:

Panels sanded down, ready for painting next weekend.

Sorry about the mess in tha background.


Some wheels to play with


I have also converted the loom to the new NRG Power/Gilera Runner dash.



Everything seems to work so far, I'm exiting to see if the rpm meter will work aswell.
This we will know when the engine is back in.

Some Runner parts

 

Re: My Typhoon project 172

the clock look good ive been wanting to do it for a while now. was it hard to rewire?
projects coming along good

 

Re: My Typhoon project 172

As I have the Hayns manual + the original wiring diagram for the NRG and Runner loom, it was a piece of cake. (You need a NRG/Runner loom to cut the connectors from)
Only problem I have is that I need a connector for the light switch, as the 50 ccm don't have this. But this I will figure out some how later. I'm also left with the charger lamp, as NRG Power don't have this either. But I don't think I need this feature. (I will think about a solution for this as well.)
