You do know that you're not supposed to have the bike on the front strand only.

Is it going to be red like the tank or are you having it painted ?

If you are and not got anyone to do it I have a few contacts who might do it for you.

Just to give yous an idea, this is roughly same spec motor I'll be using

Not got any time to do much this weekend, next jobs are to cut subframe down and make brackets for the RS tank, also need to modify the tie bars the mount under the engine to the engine mounts, but tbh the mounts are seriously solid anyway, but every little helps.

Just ordered some titanium bolts for calipers cos I'm bored biggrin and ordered a custom brake line for the rear brake.


Gonna do as much as I can with the rolling chassis for the time being then start ordering engine parts. First job motor wise is to send the cases off to stan stephens to get trenched to clear a +7mm crank.

Ryan,

She's going to look stunning!
Good luck with the engine build. Yes, it'll cost an arm, a leg and an ahole( 34567) times, but it'll be worth it.
And have you settled on the final spec?
443?
Power valves?
Hinson Clutch?
Straight cut primaries?
Type of carbs?
Etc
Etc

443 non pv cheetah cub 68mm bore with 7mm crank. Toying with trying lectron flat slides, I'm hoping the extra stroke and 36mm carbs instead of 38mm might make it less peaky than the other I've seen, also will run a digital ignition. Yes it'll need a billet basket and will run straight cut primaries. Going to keep messing with the rolling chassis for a bit first as there's still plenty of jobs to do but in essence that's the idea engine wise.

Great project, lovely rear shock!

I've a new engine seal kit(gaskets and seals) if you want to save a fair few quid.

Nice spec. Should net you 85/90 ponies conservatively I would imagine. Bit of a giggle in such a small chassis.
Defo try not to overdo the carbs. You could sacrifice a ton of midrange for a couple of ponies at the top, but actually making it a slower bike.
Good luck and keep us posted.

Yeah that is conservative, at that spec I'd be disappointed with 85! Will see how it goes, not planning on porting the cub cylinders just a clean up and transfer to case match as they're bloody wild as is!
