Not a defection

[The Nutty Professor]

I am now the owner of a Yamaha PW80. No it was not planned or even expected. I walked into the shop and there was this ratty bike I had seen sitting around for a couple weeks. I told the shop mechanic, Mark, about the races in Dublin coming up. He pointed to the ratty bike and talked about it as a Motard then I found out it was his and he really didn't want to mess with it. It needs a piston and maybe a few other things and a major facelift. I looked on Ebay to see how much rebuild parts are going for and I was sold. A Japanese bike with Chinese priced replacement parts. The bike isn't for me...really it's not I bought it for my daughter. I let the smoke out of the regulator on her electric scooter and have been looking for something gas powered for a while and this just fell in my lap. I didn't get any photo's of it but I will and you will see the build up. Yes it's a long term build but it's not a Mid so it belongs here I think. My only worry is it's a 2-smoke and the power is nothing to ignore. I think I'll leave it in first gear and let her ride that for a while. Being semi-auto she'll figure out how to shift that soon enough...the girls like her Daddy she loves speed. rock2rock2rock2rock2

[cutlasskel]

Cool! We started my daughter on a PW50 when she was 5 yrs old.

[swheels]

Yep i got one of those things.LOL I've been trying to think of what to do with it for a long time now. Been kinda toying with the idea of putting regular dirtbike wheels on it.thinking_smilie Nah someday got to much going on right now to worry about it.

[stuntnx7]

i would test drive and make your decision again about letting your kid drive... i havent ridden one of those but i rode a fat cat and it was ridiculous

[The Nutty Professor]

Stunt do you mean as in how fast it is? If it's too fast I'll restrict the throttle. It already has a restrictor on the exhaust which slows it down. After I ride it I'll decide what to do.

no the turning with big tires suck

[btroxl]

very cool. i started riding on a y-zinger 50 when i was 4.man that was a long time ago!

[The Nutty Professor]

Oh I got ya Stunt but naw here's the rat ride I'm going to turn into a gem...I hope bluelaugh

[stuntnx7]

sweet rock2

[Blitz$M.Inc.$]

ya thats not too bad, i would like to get my gkids on something motorized eventually, they wanna race with poppy

[The Nutty Professor]

$100 and I get a new tank and seat cover and the mechanic is pretty sure it just needs a piston. Probably has tires too which he'll throw in but not sure. If not I still stole it.

[FiveStarSky]

i didnt know they made horizontal two strokes? dosent look too bad i suppose

[The Nutty Professor]

Let's see this is how it's going. I have recovered the seat and was given a brand new rear tire!!!! I've started repainting some of the plastics purple which is her favorite color. I Ebay-ed a Yamaha Genuine piston which is .25 over so I have the bore the cylinder and that's going to be free. The piston was $10! On BikeBandit $50! I then bought rings for $17 off BikeBandit. So I basically got a overbore piston for $27 which is less than half. I'll take luck any day!

I'm going to start bead blasting some of the rough parts and use the flash paint technique on the metal stuff. This is taking a lot longer than I thought it would but Dublin comes first right now.

[The Nutty Professor]

Well the rush is on. I decided to get this done for a next to the tree Christmas present. I've stripped the bike down to the nuts and bolts. I've stripped the frame, primed and repainted it with black enamel. The swing arm was stripped then painted. The header was beaded blasted just on the rust spots and then repainted with high heat paint. I should mention all the parts I listed above have been bead blasted also. I took the forks apart and the smell of the fish oil in there would gag a maggot :fudge:!!!! I still need to buy grips, a chain, and pegs and that should be it. I used steel wool to clean up the wheels. Well one. I'll take a photo of the clean one and one of the dirty one to show just how ragged this thing was not that you couldn't tell from the other photo's. I've thrown up a couple quick photo's I took tonight.

[btroxl]

Looking Very nice!

[Blitz$M.Inc.$]

ya thats awesome
do you need anymore kids? can i fill out an application? i got a job and everything :)

[FiveStarSky]

nice!

[relaxednoma]

That is awesome

[Niusiic[latvia]]

o ****. That thing is sweet!

[The Nutty Professor]

She's going back together, but I still have to get the bored cylinder which I should get Tuesday. It's hard to see in the photo of the rims but the rim in the back is nasty as hell and the one in the front I used fine steel wool to pretty it up. After that I hit it with enamel paint on the hub and the spokes (Photo of that later). I don't like the crusty old shock but finding one on short notice is out so I cleaned it as best I could and put it back on. The rear swing arm looks nice but the paint isn't going to hold up so in no time I'm going to have to snatch it back off and redo it but that's ok. I need to take the rear rim in and have the new tire put on also. The front will do it's in a lot better shape. Then I'll mount the forks and handle bars. On Tuesday I havae to get a chain and grips too. The grips he'll have the chain...here's hoping. If he doesn't I'll hit Tractor Supply and just get a black one. I want gold for the Christmas :bling2: factor. 12 days and counting.

[RomanianRacer]

looking so far so good nutty! Keep up the great work.thumbsup2

[Monster_Bike1780]

its look pretty good nutty man, pretty goodthumbsup2

[The Nutty Professor]

A little more work. I used a leotard stretched over the tank to get the affect you see. Purple is her favorite color so that's the color I went with. Why not all the plastics were trashed and needed work so I used that color. Now I have to see if the technique will work on the tail-section?

[briansX19haulsass]

sweet sauce!

[Blitz$M.Inc.$]

ya that sure is different looking, daddy props thumbsup2

[The Nutty Professor]

Some guys on American Chopper use that tech to paint snake skin. I just wanted to see how it would look with those colors. Once it's on the bike we'll see :dunno:

very true

[The Nutty Professor]

Damn that paint and the technique were a HUGE!!! mistake!!!!! This thing is f-ugly!!!! I'm just going to finish the other stuff and come back and redo it. Oh well live learn. If that's all I got wrong I'll be a happy camper.

[RomanianRacer]

haha, looks super old school!

why not just wrap it :dunno: they got this stuff that has microscopic holes that lets the air bubbles escape so it makes it dummy proof

[Blitz$M.Inc.$]

i think its very unique
not really girl colors but hey
what does lil miss think? thats what matters
and her great dad thumbsup2

Lil Miss has no idea! It'll be next to the tree Christmas morning thumbsup2

[briansX19haulsass]

will it be good to go and running?

[FiveStarSky]

from my limited experince with my 6 year old adopted sister, if its pink, purple, yellow, or shiney, they will like it.

heck i let her sit on the tank of my ysr and toot her around the yard when my moms not lookin.

[The Nutty Professor]

will it be good to go and running?

Just got the cylinder back and watched it done. Damn great fit! Carb is almost clean. I should have it together by Monday night.

[briansX19haulsass]

nice! is it gonna be from you or santa? jw

[The Nutty Professor]

She's not dumb and she's seen Daddy work on his bike a lot so she would figure it out. And Santa is still in the picture so this presents from Daddy.

[FiveStarSky]

gonna up 1 on santa this year?

[btroxl]

Nutty,
I think the bike is looking GREAT I'm sure she's going to love it.thumbsup2

[Blitz$M.Inc.$]

ya i vote you leave it, if she really dont like the color then offer her to change it

[The Nutty Professor]

Ok I'll leave it. With one change. The girl LOVES!!! flames so I bought some stickers and I just put then on and go!:clap:

[The Nutty Professor]

I'll throw up some photo's tonight of it almost done. The last things to do are 1. Put the chain on 2. Fuel line from the tank to the carb 3. Bolt on the clutch and flywheel covers 4. Fuel in tank Oil in tank 5. Oil in the crankcase 6. Kickstarter and shifter 7. New plug and she's done!!!!!!
What will take the longest time will be cutting the chain to length.

Then it's back to my bike which is out of time.

[briansX19haulsass]

I cant wait to see it... DOnt forget to take pictures of her seeing it too!

I asked or a TB 28mm carb set for X-ms

[The Nutty Professor]

Mostly together. Enough so you can see what it looks like. :clap:

[briansX19haulsass]

nice bro! myabe put a bigger shock in the back so it doesnt lean so far back though lol. Unless your going for the chopper feel.

[The Nutty Professor]

That will be the first thing I do next.

[FiveStarSky]

before to after you did a kick ask job.

[briansX19haulsass]

you could just weld an extra 1-1.5 inch metal extension on the shcok your runing now..

Thats what s and I did to fit our shocks on. Simple and cheap

[The Nutty Professor]

After X-mas I'm looking for a shock. It seems all the stock shocks are soft as hell. I thought the one I had was sacked out til I sat on a newer one and then one that was damn near showroom. They all felt the same. It seems they put shocks on these things that will hold up a 5 year old that's about it!

[Niusiic[latvia]]

Hey, nutty p, no front fender? It looks kinda strange without it

[Blitz$M.Inc.$]

man that looks awesome man
you did a great job

[btroxl]

Very NICEthumbsup2

[X7rocks]

that is rad

[The Nutty Professor]

DONE! Well except for the pegs which I'm waiting on??? :DI: If they don't make it on time I'll put something together until I can put them on.

[The Nutty Professor]

Took the bike to Sport Cycle my buddies shop and he had it idling and running strong in no time. I rode it in the parking lot and speechless33 First and half of second gear I know she can handle...well almost. Third gear HOLY CRAP!!!! This thing makes me want to put one of these motors in a Mid. Punched way out of course. Ya know what I liked? No timing chain, cams, and all that other crap! It was just so picky about fueling that it was driving me crazy. On a 4 smoke once it's done you have a very wide range you can run at. 2 smokes not so much?

I know she loves speed but this thing might just scare the crap out of her :dunno:

Yea 2 strokes do rock, they have awesome powerbands. You could probably get an idle thing(can't think of the right word) that stops you from going say to 1/2 throttle to wide open. She can only hit 1/2 throttle. I wish I would remember what its called. Your bike probably had it but it was removed. You could also just have her hit 1st and 2nd and don't go any other gear until she gets used to it.

[X7rocks]

a governer?

i remember the pw50s...took a bit to wind up but they hualed ass once they got up to speed.

[The Nutty Professor]

You have to be right X7. This a bored up 80 soooo?? But it's still semi-auto so that does slow it down, but not by much it seems?

[X7rocks]

any way of turning it into a manual?

[The Nutty Professor]

Probably but I'm not one to just jump into something figuring what's there already doesn't work. Remember I was dumb enough to try and turn a X22 into a race bike bluelaugh

[X7rocks]

still turned out to be the nicest x22 out there.
if mini nutty proffesor would like more power theres always the FMF performance pipe maybe make it into a motard so she can ride with you

[The Nutty Professor]

It has a FMF pipe and I've already looked at the expansion chamber of course bluelaugh

[briansX19haulsass]

dont forget pic of morning!

[The Nutty Professor]

Well Brian there would be Photo's if the weather had acted right.

[btroxl]

The most important questions.... Did she like it an was she surprised??

[The Nutty Professor]

Story: We get up and she's jumping up and down looking at all the stuff. "Look Santa brought Daddy a motorcycle" "No Boo read the tag" Her jaw hits the floor and she jumps on it and proceeds to open the rest of her presents sitting on it hahaha Daddy-1 Santa-8. If this is the only one I get I'll take it thumbsup2

[X7rocks]

haha should have ben recording it those moments are priceless :D

[The Nutty Professor]

Well she rode it two feet and dumped it and won't get back on right now :dunno: I guess it's way faster than her electric scooter. So I just jumped on it to throw up a video. I figured out the problem. The damn mainjet was laying in the bottom of the float bowl when I opened it up! I've never had that happen. I know I tightened the damn thing!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x45k_9eCh6k

Oh and by the way guys when I was riding in the yard around trees I put my helmet on. All those leaves and sliding around I knew I'd over correct and smack something with the nooggin. One thing though there's not enough power to break the rear loose on tough ground. Loose sand probably?

[Blitz$M.Inc.$]

ya that thing was movin thumbsup2
maybe some training wheels?
i always tell my kids they are gonna wreck, so when they do, its no surprise, i say just get back up and keep going, but i know girls are more sensitive

[btroxl]

Training wheels an you can put a restrictor plate in that thing right where the exhaust bolts to the cylinder.

Looks like fun though!

[Blitz$M.Inc.$]

maybe a Barbie FMF sticker!

[The Nutty Professor]

All the neighbors came out to watch. They were saying I was having way too much fun not being a kid. If they only knew hehehe bluelaugh

[Blitz$M.Inc.$]

ya i noticed that, the kids at my work cant believe im 38, they think im like late 20s bc i ride little bikes and am into racing and stuff
but your neighbors were prolly like 'look at old man here' my my my lol
they were looking like your typical nascar fans: waiting for the wreck lol

[swheels]

The bike came out great. I say get her an X7 2stroke and you throw on some street tires.Then bring that puppy to the track to race it.thumbsup2

[Blitz$M.Inc.$]

ya ya, thats the jedi mind trick on mamma to hehe, let her meet 'thatgirl' and get some girl interest going

[The Nutty Professor]

Well it wasn't planned really it wasn't but that's how it's ending up. She won't ride it. She says "Daddy that thing almost killed me I-Am-Not-Getting-On-It-Again!!!!!!!!" So I think I'll start putting parts in it to practice in the dirt first then find parts to Mini-Tard it. But the parts I find will sit in a corner until I have all of them to put on at once. Then there's very little down time for the bike. I also have the X22 I want to build up for the street. That's a build as I find the parts project. I want that to have the X12 body work and a few other street oriented pieces. Swheels I plan on putting your front end mods on it. That bike will be a test bed for ideas. It's easier to test ideas over a long haul if you do it on a street bike in my opinion.

[swheels]

As for the x22 you need to rake that baby out a bit. Just guessing on the test aspects of the fronend on that chassis.Would more than likely give you a totally different feedback from a chassis that has more frontend rake. I'd be all over the ones that will be hitting the track first and far most.

I've long found out that testing in the lot is good to get somewhat of an idea as to what the bike might do. When your out on the track you can only hope for better results which most of the time happens.
There was a point though when i was settin the bike up to the lot where i use to practice the most.Then got to a track and said WTF? Total different feel from the bike.bluelaugh So i learned my lesson and try not to make that mistake again.

[The Nutty Professor]

I have a Noleen shock to use on the front to duplicate Swheels modification. I knew when it didn't work on the X22 I'd find a use for it! I've already raised the rear a good 3-4 inches. It wasn't easy but it was free! I have a plan to redo it but for now what I have works. I need a lathe and a second shock to pull off the new mod. I also want a second set of rims so I can mount street tires and use the bike to practice in the dirt and on the road. The dirt keeps the reflexes sharp catching slides which are fun as hell. I might just open up a long term on this one when I get all the parts together to put a Tard/MX bike together. All the forums call these bikes slow...maybe but there are more cheap go-fast tricks than most people ever try to use and I'm cheap and I like to go-fast rock2

[MotorHeadMike]

amazing job on this bike nut . You are certainly one crafty mo fo!

[The Nutty Professor]

I was looking to Tard this bike. Finding a 14 inch street tire for the front was not easy so I got with my buddy and he suggested I get a 12 inch rim and relace it to the hub I have. Well found a used rim today and now all I need to do is find out which spokes will fit. :dunno: Might work. Might not.

[The Nutty Professor]

I ride her almost everyday I get a chance even if it's just for 10 minutes. As usual the Mid is giving me problem after problem. Now it's blowing high pressure oil out of somewhere??? And I can't see where? So I have to pull the motor yet again. The Tard is the shizzle. One kick and I'm sliding around :bananar: On my next day I'm going to find some place and run though a couple tanks of gas..........Just because:clap:

I've put off modifying the front from a 14 inch to a 12 inch rim until I have the mid running. I'm not going to sit around again this summer with nothing to ride.

[Blitz$M.Inc.$]

well its a plan

[The Nutty Professor]

Best I got Blitz my man. I'm so damn frustrated I almost burned the damn thing and I don't mean the PW80.

[TRT]

u gonna build a pipe for that PW?

[The Nutty Professor]

It's a 2 smoke...that was a joke right :yup: I've been looking at a fatty pipe on Ebay but finances say "ah NO!" right now.

[TRT]

actually I was serious... alot of the pocket bike pipe expansion chambers can be cut off and fitted to the stock head pipe on these PWs... the fatty is a little pricy and for the performance you get... a home made chop cut and rebuild pipe works just fine.....It is a PW and there's not a whole lot you can do.....

[The Nutty Professor]

Just ordered a new front end for the PW. Going to tard her out. Going from a 14 inch front to a 12 inch front. Now she'll have a 12 front and rear.

[Blitz$M.Inc.$]

you gonna race it?
what about the midbike :dunno:

[The Nutty Professor]

Both are gonna be crashed down a road somewhere.

[The Nutty Professor]

I am not friggin happy angry_red I bought a front end kit for a CRF50 from PCC Motors on Ebay. I expected the forks to be at least as simple as the USD's on my Mid. Hell no! They're sealed! I at least thought I could play with the fork oil levels and add a spacer. I can add oil but only after flushing out the crap they have in there and then guessing at the level. They'll just have to do for now but they are crap! I'm working now but when I get home I'll take so photo's of this crap banghead

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170476125116&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT

[stuntnx7]

i see you aint skeered to drop some coin rock2 is there any way to drain the stock fork oil out into a measuring cup

[The Nutty Professor]

When I have it to spend no I'm not. I can do that with the other leg. I was caught off guard. The last thing I expected inside was what I saw. I pulled the top cap off and the bottom leg and all came out with it and oil start pouring out. It took me a couple seconds to realize what I was looking at and get royally pissed.

[The Nutty Professor]

Damn camera not wanting to work with the light I have so I'll have to wait until later in the day.

Any questions about the photo's just ask.

[stuntnx7]

i like pics like these. I want to start messing with forks and shocks sooner or later on my lil bikes and big bikes. I'd like to shorten the forks on the f4 drag bike rock2....my f4i needs the forks rebuilt too banghead

As far as that all you need is good manual, correct tools, arms witch aren't growing out of your ass and brain in the right place and you're good. I have rebuilt some forks, well, they werent bikes, but they were cycles, pretty complicated though!

[swheels]

I'd like to shorten the forks on the f4 drag bike rock2....my f4i needs the forks rebuilt too bangheadYour big bike usd's are gonna be much much more intricate than these.A lot of internal shims and spacers that go in a sequence.

Any questions about the photo's just ask. All i can say is DAM!!!!!! That is a bitch! I'm ttrying to figure out how they held the cap end while they welded it???? Becuase the spring inside had to make it a little hard to do.:dunno:
I have a few ideas nothing great but i'll be back. agreed it wouldn't be worth the time and effort.

thats why i havnt messed with anything yet bluelaugh

[swheels]

thats why i havnt messed with anything yet bluelaughI don't blame on that. bluelaugh I had a bangin site that showed and laid out the internals on the usd's and how to put them back together. If i come across it i will be sure to post it.

[The Nutty Professor]

Well the stem bolt is too short so I have to fix that. I put it together anyway just to ride it around. It was twitchy and steered to the left. I'm going to have to drill and tap the stem bolt to get it to work right. Oh friggin joy!

[The Nutty Professor]

Made progress. A little welding, drilling, and tapping for a bolt and it feels better turning and braking. The handlebars are out of alignment but I'll get that figured out. It has stopped trying to tuck on me that had to be the lack of play in the steering. I didn't get the bearings right. But I got it now with a lot of riggin. I can touch my knee down with th knobbies on the bike still? I tried the leg out motard style and didn't like it one bit! So far this bike is the best damn investment I've made in a long time. The front end not so much but I'll just over ride it til I crash.

[The Nutty Professor]

All I need are tires. Well for now. A couple of more Go-Fast and it'll be done for a while. Here are a few photo's. To put the CRF50 front end on I had to use both sets of bearing races and weld them together back to back. But it works very well. It's almost impossible to see in the photo but I tried. I didn't take photo's with it apart and I don't want to do it now. Maybe later. With one disc it doesn't brake like I want but it will do. For those who think one disc is enough I for one will never be a believer. Too much brake makes life so much easier.

[Niusiic[latvia]]

Started as a gift for your daughter and ended up as gift for your self, huh? :D

[The Nutty Professor]

Yeah but believe me I more than made up for it that kids get damn near everything!

[stuntnx7]

[The Nutty Professor]

She won't ride it. Says it's to fast and trying to kill her.

[stuntnx7]

She won't ride it. Says it's to fast and trying to kill her.




tell'er shes the one controlling the throttle :dunno: i always tell people itll only go as fast as you make it go thumbsup2 be smooth with the throttle inputs. Im teaching my gf how to ride this f4 i bought a while back rock2

[The Nutty Professor]

you gonna race it?
what about the midbike :dunno:

Blitz I cam all the way back to your post after today to answer your question. God Damn It No! Meaning the Mid Bike as of now can friggin rot! I Just got on the damn thing at it spit me off after a block. It started leaking from multiple places (oil). It got on the back tire and I saw sky then ground. Until I have plenty of time or money to let someone else get it done I'm just going to work on other parts of it and it'll just friggin sit there. No I'm not getting rid of it but I'm not going to let it kill me either. I put it back it the garage and got on the PW. My neighbor came over after I parked it and asked me if I was crazy? I asked him why he thought that. He said when I was on the PW I was hauling butt on the street and the bike was all over the place and I never slowed down. Yes I felt the knobbies moving around but I was to mad to care.

So future money is going into the PW and the X15 will have to sit and wait.

[Shooter]

LOL!
My neighbor came over after I parked it and asked me if I was crazy?
Did you give him a big "HELL NO!" .... I'm Nutty! crazy_smilie
.....and now I have to ask......... You actually got thrown off your bike? ... You let her high-horse ya huh? moon1 moon1

[Blitz$M.Inc.$]

wow, ok, no need to dam God about it tho
sounds like your mechanics fault

[The Nutty Professor]

That is the furtherest thing from my mind Sir Blitz. The origin (I'd have to go find the exact time period) of the term is this: In days of old the saying actually started in the church. It meant God please damn this situation or God's Damnation. "May God Damn you forever." How this got turned into a barb at the Lord? But what little I can find seems to point directly at the good ole U.S. Souther Baptist Churches....ok enough pointing fingers just realize Blitz brah I value my existence and what comes after.

And yes the mechanic is obviously a stone idiot. crazy_smilie And that is not a comeback at you Blitz I mean it. I can take apart and put a ZX-10R together from the ground up. I can tell you were every bolt on a CBR-600f2 goes just by looking at it (Well I could I might miss a few now) but give me a 4-stroke horizontal Honda clone and it whips my behind?!

The base for the Mid I have down but the heart of it just doesn't want to co-operate with the village idiot.

And yes the mechanic is obviously a stone idiot. crazy_smilie And that is not a comeback at you Blitz I mean it. I can take apart and put a ZX-10R together from the ground up. I can tell you were every bolt on a CBR-600f2 goes just by looking at it (Well I could I might miss a few now) but give me a 4-stroke horizontal Honda clone and it whips my behind?!

The base for the Mid I have down but the heart of it just doesn't want to co-operate with the village idiot.

Naw I want a light fast 2 smoke or I'll stick with the 4 stroke.

A TT91 rear tire is on it's way along with a no name front. I couldn't find a decent priced front TT and I want to ride. I'm ripping the knobbies off the tires I have on there now and I'm not getting good practice with them. I'll just use my home brew tire softener on them and throw it down the road :bananar:

I just got the TT91 in the mail and it's HUGE! I'm wondering if it will even fit? Or what the hell will I have to do to make it fit?

Got my front tire in from Ebay yesterday. It wasn't even close to the tire I ordered (Front). Tread patterns like a rain tire so I'll probably burn it up in no time. They're at the shop being mounted so maybe Saturday or Sunday I can get in some real riding on pavement.
