I will need your email address

Yes that would make perfect sense as the five speed quadrant has more teeth which are closer together so doesn't need to move so far. I do prefer to use traditional non-setting sealants, Wellseal usually does the job (I think that's what the factory used) but the surfaces do need to be good. Hermatite Red for poor surfaces.

I don't have much experience of 50cc scooters, you will need a wiring diagram for your scooter and try to work it out.

The axle/wheel beam can be unbolted from the main section so it can go in the back of a van.

got this with the van but sorry I don't have full workshop instructions, I would think Haynes do a manual.

@@InTheShedUK Checked out Haynes they dont - for the Bri stor elements anyway. Bri-stor are not being that helpful. Do you have the original Bri-stor plan in your video do you still need it? Your youtube is very good its just missing the detail in the bottom right corner of the diagram. Keep up the good works

@@inkywarmsp If you mean Tow/Step Sensors detail it's at 1:36 I do want to hang on to the plan but could email you a copy of the image.

Bore clearance - perfectly ok to use a feeler gauge, unless your building a high performance racing engine! If you have a bore gauge, that's great, most of us don't so we use the old fashioned feeler gauge method. Official Triumph workshop manual makes no reference to heating the barrels or freezing the blocks so if it's good enough for Triumph it's fine by me! Some people use heat, some don't. If you want to heat/freeze then that's fine.

Yes the new springs have maybe half a coil too much and the wire diameter is greater then the old ones. 650 cams were used on the Wasp (500cc) engine, 0.040" more lift and more valve open duration giving greater power at high RPM, the rest of the valve train is the same as the A50.

Honda Ruckus has CDI ignition and I think you have to connect the tacho input to the pulsar (blue/yellow) wire, from what I have read there should be a 'service check' connector under the battery box which connects directly to the pulsar wire, might be possible to pick up the blue/yellow connection there. Or you could try wrapping a wire around the HT lead and use that for tacho input. Let me know how it goes.

Yes I have heard the five speed is a bit of a challenge!

Hope all goes well with your repairs

A lot of nice machines there

Triumph did actually get it right in 1970 when they made the front engine bracket detachable so you could get the engine in/out with the rocker boxes on. 1971 they went to OIF and returned to a welded front bracket!

Yes wish I had made some when I rebuilt the A50!

Awning rail (C channel) awning is in the back, 'Camper' stickers both sides (hidden behind open sliding door), two windows (one each side). DVLA actually states that you don't even need ALL of the requirements. The reason they gave me was that it does not 'look' like a campervan in traffic, which is their stock excuse they give everyone (even those with more than two windows!). Plenty of people have approached me to ask 'can I have a look inside your camper?' so Joe public is obviously much more intelligent than the numpties at DVLA!

Okay, no problem mate. Just trying to help

Search for 'W4 Plastic Turnbuckle Door Catch Brown Caravan Motorhome 37810'. I got mine from ebay but they are also available from amazon and caravan dealers.

@@InTheShedUK thank you, much appreciated. I have done a similar thing with my chest fridge, slides under the bed, I put it on a sled with small wheels, created a wooded runner so it trapped the wheels, so they could only run in and out in a straight line and not twist, I added a stop at the back, again so it stopped at the correct place when closed, I used chrome thumb turn door catches like you see on a cubicle door, I wanted something heavy duty. My issue is the cable, how have you wired it so when you pull it out and back in again that the cable doesn’t get caught. I was thinking about using a trellis type arrangement tacking the wire to it so it expended and collapsed as the fridge came in and out. Like XXXXX it’s hard to explain what’s in my head. So again how did you do it? Thanks

@@markymarks3805 Yes I can see where you are going with the trellis idea. I kept mine really simple, just used a cable tie and stick on cable tie clip. Have a look at my video 'Campervan Garage, Bed, Step and Table - Fiat Ducato Campervan Conversion Part 21' in the playlist to see how it works. Very simple but hasn't snagged yet.

@@InTheShedUK watched it, many thanks, I was overthinking it, I will copy your method, simple as. Thanks again.

No, the choke (air slide) was off, lever is fully round.

Counter sunk bolts for where?

Yes, I had the same thoughts about the LPG. You could raise a case with the Ombudsman see www.ombudsman.org.uk/news-and-blog/news/dvlas-poor-communication-causes-confusion-campervan-owners If more people did this it would highlight the fact that DVLA are still going against the PHSO recommendations and drop them right in it!

@@InTheShedUK Hi, I may look into that.

Thanks, not bad considering it was just a box of bits!

Ring gaps spacing mentioned at 27:00 but blink and you'll miss it! Didn't mention oiling the rings but did oil the cylinder 27:49 although some prefer do it completely dry, lowbrowcustoms for one.

They also say you don't need to meet ALL the requirements. The reason they gave me for rejection was that it 'doesn't look like a motor caravan in traffic'... No mention of windows or anything else.

I think there's a guy making adjustable pushrod tubes for Triumphs. I saw a set of them on a RUclips channel called Dirty Shirt Richter. (He's machinist who does a lot of work for Baxter Cycle's in Iowa.) I'm not sure if they're for sale yet, seems like he's still in the "testing" phase to make sure they work well. I put a T140 head together recently to replace top end gaskets and PRT seals. It was my first time doing any top end assembly and I was worried about getting those seals correct. I was quite happy that she didn't leak when all was said and done.

Yes I thought that was odd about the tube seal availability

I think I prefer working on BSA's, much simpler design! Although I prefer crank bearings to BSA bushes. Swings and roundabouts!

It's more about the principle, they set the rules, we follow the rules but they then choose to ignore the rules they set in the first place! The rules changed around 2019 so you probably struck lucky. Speed limits only become a concern when the NIP drops through your letterbox. The old Gatso's are being decommissioned (a survey in 2017 revealed only about half were actually working!) and are being replaced by more discreet digital cameras.

Started a while before Covid. It started initially as people were changing their vans to beat LEZ restrictions. Putting in basic furniture, enough to change the body type.. then simply removing the furniture allowing to use their vans for deliveries or other things.

My mate has a van under 3.5 tonnes that he uses for camping. It doesn’t have side windows. He has just been prosecuted by Devon & Cornwall police (driver awareness course) for doing 71mph on a 70mph dual carriageway with central reservation. The basis of the offence is that it is a van NOT a motorhome or camper van. I am not sure if a van with windows would be considered differently, as when he dialled into the course (zoom meeting) all the others present were the same as him, ‘normal’ van used for camping exceeding 60mph on a dual carriageway. So if you don’t think they will prosecute you, I advise caution, as it doesn’t apply in Devon or Cornwall apparently

@@Mr_Springy it does happen.

@@Mr_Springy You can appeal the NIP in cases such as these, just need to provide evidence that the vehicle is being 'used' as a 'motor caravan' ie living/cooking/sleeping facilities. If the DVLA changed our V5C's as requested to 'motor caravan' in the first place it would save everyone (including the authorities) a lot of time and effort!

Yep, I just can't understand why there are so many people that get rejected and DVLA's reasoning behind it all.

Probably best to ring round individual insurance companies or brokers and tell them what you need. I got my insurance with Adrian Flux, I rang them and explained that I was converting a van into a camper and got insurance which they said would cover me during my conversion and once I had completed it just to ring them and let them know. They gave me no time limit on how long I had to finish my conversion!

@@InTheShedUK Thank you si much for your reply. The info is very interesting, as it confirms info that another person just mentioned in conversation. Lovely thanks.

Think I have always questioned authority, my mantra is to question everything, accept nothing!

You can take it further by raising an issue with The Parliamentary and Health Services Ombudsman (PHSO) but you do have to write to your MP first. People have done this and got a small amount of compensation. The more people do this the better as it will highlight the problem. There are some links in my other video ruclips.net/video/9oyQhKLCWe8/видео.html

Is it a high top with awning bar? If not that’s where they’ve refused.

@@SingletrackScene Unfortunately pop-tops will be refused, except for, I believe 'factory built' VW Ocean with pop-top are classified as 'motor-caravan'... Double standards!

@@InTheShedUK that's correct. Pop tops are only acceptable on builds that are first registered as motor caravans and not re-registered.

* their senses ?

hi thank you for correcting me I HOPOE IT MADE YOU FEEL ALOT BETTER, but on the other hand just two words (what ever) good day sir.

@@a65builder67 * a lot *
