  • In this video I dig deeper into the 1970 Yamaha HS1 90cc twin, trying to track down the source of the noise. We look the bike over and talk about the good and the bad, and do get the engine running, but it is very noisy.

    Thank you, I just got 50 years younger this morning! These little Yamaha twins were the bomb back then for teenagers like me. I especially liked the 125 versions, both the road and scrambler models!

      Hey Wayne. thanks for the kind words my friend. I know what you mean. I do have a 1968 AS1C 125 Scrambler that will be coming in the shop at some point. I share your interest in them too.

    Dale... the smile and memories when you fired her up! It's been 50 years since I've had mine. A '71 HS1-B. You're right on with the horsepower, my title showed 4.9bhp, and that was max legal for a 15-year-old on a restricted license. I wish I knew about the shorter slides! I think this project will definitely be worth it.

      Just love the sound of these little twins, yes under 5 hp with the restricted license. Don't know if they still do that or not. Yes, that is the hot setup for the 90 twins, grab a pair of twin jet 100 slides. I have already found a set and they are on the way.

    Amazing, Dale. Truly amazing. Hard to believe crank bearings are bad, but as always your diagnostic skills are spot on. What a blast from the past.

      This one is going to be exciting; I have to make some tools to bust the crank in two. So, stay tuned for that.

    Hi Dale, looks like an interesting project - with those tiny 45cc cylinders. A lot if it looks like really great condition for its age, like the chrome rims, frame, exhausts. I'm guessing the crank will look burned blue/black due to oil pump failure. It's such a pity that bikes get parked outside, sunburnt, saturated and frozen. They really need to be in a garage even more so than a car.

    • @montana2strokeracer
      @montana2strokeracer  3 месяца назад +1

      You won't get an argument from me Steve, I have already done the Japanese market only AT-90 that I found. Couple years back I think, just like this one, but faster. It didn't have the long carb slides to limit fuel intake like this one.

    Years ago I came up with a rule that I follow when purchasing second hand 2 strokes....always assume that the engine is F$XCKED, that way you won't go far wrong! 😞
    Another general rule is that you can't learn much from the fact that an engine will run or not, an engine might not run just because it has a small electrical or fuelling issue, don't then assume that the engine is knackered. (Although my first rule would still apply!). Also don't assume that there can't be much wrong with an engine if it does run, the engine in the vid runs but its knackered! I bet it will end up being a crank and re-bore job before it's sorted. Dale's the man to do it!

      @montana2strokeracer  3 месяца назад

      Hey Brian, this is going to be fun. I have not done a twin or triple crank in a very long time. I am in the process of making a tool to separate the two cranks from one another. Back in the day we had this tool in the bike shop, doubt they are available these days. I really think I have a rod set for it. Believe it is the same for the AS1 twin 125. It is a aftermarket set though. Should be fine. Its the Labyrinth seal that I am concerned about finding.

  • @retromechanicalengineer
    @retromechanicalengineer 3 месяца назад

    It's a great project Dale, just about all there. There is definitely carnage lurking in the crankcases and I'd be surprised if you didn't have two cylinders to bore, if its been run dry. No problem for the Sweger Workshop!
    Best wishes, Dean.

    • @montana2strokeracer
      @montana2strokeracer  3 месяца назад +1

      Yes, I agree Dean, we will see on the cylinders, think I have a set laying around somewhere, condition unknown but were not run dry like this one. These will have to bored in the lathe if needed.

    Hi Dale, that is one beautiful little darling there. Unfortunately it's like you said and I believe the same thing that the main bearings are gone sounds awful crunchy, hopefully the crank is salvageable. I've been thinking about trying to find a few of these old Yamahas and Suzuki's and work on them and getting them roadworthy or trail worthy again. I still have a few projects that I need to finish before that happens but wish me luck. I will wish you the same!!! Anyway my friend you keep on keepin on, many blessings to you and yours.

They are fun and for the most part the parts are still out there. Think you will find them enjoyable, best of luck on your search.

    • @montana2strokeracer
      @montana2strokeracer  Месяц назад

      Yes, you are right the 100 was the first twin imported, the 90 as I understand it was imported for some states that require 16-year-olds to have a bike with less than 5 hp. The 90 was detuned by longer slides in the carbs, most folks change them to 100 slides and behold 10 hp.

      Hey Kevin, yes, the Twin Jet 100 was a popular bike, I have the AT90, that I did several videos on, it's the same as your Twin Jet except it is a 90cc sold on the Japanese market only, mine probably was imported by a military member in the late 60s. This HS1 is a newer version of it, for the U S market in 70/71.

    It looked like the plugs were sparking alternatively. Is the timing alternate or simulataneous? are there two cylinder bikes with alternate firing?

    • @montana2strokeracer
      @montana2strokeracer  3 месяца назад

      The crank is 180 apart and there are two sets of points and two coils. Some of the twin Honda's for example, have a wasted fire on one side because they fire them from one coil and one set of points.

  • @frankdillon6127
    @frankdillon6127 3 месяца назад +1

    would the crank bearings being bad eventually cause the timing to be off.

    • @sidecarbod1441
      @sidecarbod1441 3 месяца назад

      If the crank has enough wobble then it can affect the opening of the points but this engine has bigger issues than that, a wobbly crank can also allow air to get sucked in past the crank seals. The cylinder that was misfiring is probably scored up or the piston has smeared over the rings.

    • @montana2strokeracer
      @montana2strokeracer  3 месяца назад +1

      Yes just like the CT3 Yamaha I did about a year ago. If you remember while it was running if I pushed down on the flywheel it killed the engine. Made the point gap to wide. Sidecarbod1441 is correct.

      This is the smallest twin to come out of Japan, they also made the AT-90 for the Japanese market. I don't think the forks are bent, it's from the wide-angle lens on the camera. I will be checking them through and straightening if needed.
