stuck in my new piston, cylinder and head to my bike btw.... she does an extre 2MPH now!!!! lol Got a 19mm ( 12 mm standard carb ) and manifold to fit as well.....tho its not a straight forward swap. Found nothing in the crank case ect but to my horror even tho I had covered the open engine...

:( no way...... probably realised he couldnt get £3k or didnt like you lol with regard to doing anything to her lately.... took the handles off the back of the chassis, tow bar, fog light, few bolts out of the seating bit so hopefully get it off next :) ..... does hitting the chassis everytime...

yeah I can easily change to a 90cc ect if I wanted....with new crack, carb, jets, CDI, ect ect but dont want to be illegal to that extent lol ( and I could just buy a 500 cheaper) - a blind eye is turned at a exhaust restrictor if its not driven like an idiot.... a new cylinder on the other...

lol, you did well then.....for 2 month :P Mine has 6.... however 5th and 6th are barely ever usable... 6th down a 3 mile hill maybe, and 5th down a 1 mile hill lol.....on the flat or down a normal hill they just loose power and she slows down :( After I stick in my new piston/cylinder ect I...

Keep the pics coming..... looks decent chassis...should have seen what we found under ours lol Good luck :) Bert

lol, restriction washer is out the exhaust ;) -- as is she does 50-55mph :)

ol @ kitchen painting johnny Well I managed to pick up a second hand ( sposedly perfect ) cylinder, head, piston and rings off fleabay tonight foe 99p + £10 postage..... bargain since a real AM6 one is £250+ If it dont work well well....gotta buy a cheap replica I guess. Also it says its had...

just removed the rings and turned the cylinder upsides down - it SHOULD apparently drop fast until it closes the exhaust port and then slowly because of air resistance..... dropped with a clunk and I thought there was too much play as well ( wabble as you put it lol )......never mind, looks like...

Bit off topic but...... I took the cylinder/head/piston ect off my bike today My piston on my AM6 engine ( 2-stroke 50cc ) The marks are all the exhaust port side tho the barrel itself has nothing wrong visible... slight scoring but nothing like the piston. Also the piston seems too slack now...

Dad has some paint.... you paint it on and it turns rust back to metal ???? He bought it for his last Fergie and swears by it.... Im not sure tho - anyone have any experience with this? could I paint the chassis in it roflmfao ---- seriously tho does it stop things from rusting from the inside...

Cheers for the how-2, the info and the advice :) I want paint - red oxide and hammerite ( or similar ) and wire brush I meant the drill and grinder type ;) --- I think things in my head and type them....but only I understand lol I also want some gasket paper ect just to start splitting parts...

rusty, if prices are that close genuine it is, if its a difference of £1 - £40..... thats different lol Cant wait to get a new chassis ect and get cracking....... want new paint first and I have managed to dig out 20+ wire brushes from my toolbox ( was re-arranging the workshop today and stuck...

Please dig out pics..... both me and dad like it :D Also is it home made or a bought snorkel ?

I have heard bad stories about britpart but tbh mine isnt going to get much punishment like Im guessing yours does.... When it comes to time to replace them I will do a price comparison and see which is more worthwhile :)

Damn, thought I might have got a bargain there :( Rustyrhino how did you manage to make your snorkel fit on top of the carb? does mine just lack space ( between carb inlet and bonnet ) because its a webber carb ?
