    This is a rebuild video. Just something fun for me. Not a how to. Creative Commons music was used.

    That Boyesen crank case is pure class! Love the tank as well, classic lines.
    Looks like you have a great pit bike there that sounds great as well.
    And the cherry on the sundae is that you built the engine yourself, and you can't say fairer than that. Great stuff.

    My dad was a Honda Service Manager in the 70s and said that Honda tolerances were so good and their mating surfaces so nice that no coppercoat or sealant was required nor recommended. If you got sloppy with sealant and some small pieces broke off the "bead" inside the case, it could plug oil passageways and screw your motor. GREAT video. I enjoyed it!

    I built this motor over the course of a few weeks in my spare time. I probably spent about 5 or 6 hours working on it totally. I can dissasemble and reassemble a Z50R engine in about 2 hours if nothing goes wrong. In this case I was spending extra time to film and work carefully. This entire engine could be built for about $2000, maybe less if you shop around. The engine was not seized, I just wanted it to be bigger.

    People who wear gloves generally make meticulous work,as it stems out from actual requirement and also from a psychology of self- discipline and neatness.Personally, I trust tutorials from gloved technicians/engineers.

    Just a little tip.... see the piston cir clip at 3:47.... if you place it with the gap either up or down, it will be less likely to pop out at high revs. Important on a two stroke but also on four strokes to. Just an observation from an old engine tuner.

    The wrist pin retainer clips should be facing towards the top or bottom of the stroke so G force does not cause them to compress and come out

    When I was younger, I was pretty quick to critisize when I felt the need. As I got older, wiser and more mature I learned to keep my negative thoughts to myself. The reason being- things are not always exactly as they appear. I had the misfortune of having some of my criticisms come back and bite me on my a$$. If I was some bone head with NO toys or NO practical experience, then what I'm saying might not carry any weight. Since I'm retired, having been a machinist (automotive and general machinist/welder fabricator), mechanic, etc... And after owning my share of neat mechanical toys (past and present- Corvettes, Camaros, Novas, Mustangs, Mopars), I can afford to run my mouth a "little". As of now, I've got 2 strokes and 4 strokes in my shop- I much prefer 4 strokes. I also have 2 Harleys, so I'm a fan of V-Twins. There's also a couple of 4 bolt 350s waiting on my attention- one is an aluminum head, roller motor going in a V-8 S10. I enjoyed the video! It may not be perfect. But then again, how many of you are perfect? How many of you know EVERYTHING? I certainly don't. If you don't like this harmless video, click on another one. Save your criticizm- use when it is really needed. The IRS certainly comes to mind. Benghazi cover up comes to mind, too.

    Look man, I keep in these mopeds tuning since I was 8... I have placed Takegawa covers at all moped engines, even if it was a Lifan (I hate them). I can't accept this Z for track use, because it is bored to start. Secondly, the carburettor you are using is an imitation from Keihin 24. I had a Honda GLX90 @57mm piston bore in ASSA alloy cylinder, with Kitaco cam (The 90s have the best cylinder head) but later I put on a Takegawa. I used an RD350 Carburettor made by Mikuni. It was nice machine.

      You think this is "cute" and "funny"? I have a friend who owns a Honda Monkey (chinese replica) with a 160cc YX engine, and it can outrun most 125cc 2-strokes, the compression rate is almost 14:1 and it has about 25 bhp.

    • @kylerberve
      @kylerberve 10 лет назад

    • @OlaZzz
      @OlaZzz 10 лет назад +3

      You call a 500 a "race bike"? A 250 is more than enough for racing, 250-500cc 4-strokes as well. A 500 is a bit overkill for racing, plus it's not as nimble as a 125 or a 250.

    • @kylerberve
      @kylerberve 10 лет назад

      look up great american hill climb thats the kind of races i do and all but a supercross bike is a 250 2 stroke for sure but i hill climb or a 1000cc engine in a 250 frame thats a climbing bike but a 500 for stock class

    Finally A video of an actual rebuild.Im sick of seeing vids,or reading articles of someone claiming theyre rebuilding a motor,but all they did was a top end,or take apart a carb to clean it and say they are rebuilding the motor but all it is is putting a carb back together.You wanna bes take a good look at this vid,THIS is a engine rebuild,not changing out a piston,or cleaning up a carb.If its a topend say its a top end,how hard is that?

      Why not? If you're tapping a bearing onto a shaft, tap on the inner race. I you're tapping it into a hole, tap on the outer race. No damage will happen. Tapping on the inner race to seat the bearing in a hole, however, is bad and will ruin it.

    Please don't be rude. I'm sure he does know how to race port a cylinder head, port match an intake, and swirl polish valves. I'm sure he can convert a 6v case to run 12v ignitions. And I'm sure he knows how to convert a 6v right case half to mate with a 12v left case half. And I'm sure it's second nature to him to make an XR75 swingarm fit a Z50R frame, despite the numerous complications. And I don't even have to mention how to shorten BBR forks, everyone knows that.

    most motorcycle cranks (like the ones on the crf and z 50's) are pressed from the factory. the 'big end bearings' are needle bearings that are captured on the pin of the crankshaft. usually 2 thrust washers, then they're all pressed together. So you don't install them at home, they come like that.

It will be interesting to see if you get into bigger engines down the road.

    Intake valve? That hose is to help vent the crankcase. The stock breather works good for stock engines with a small piston. The larger piston moves a lot more air. Both breathers vent back to an oil catch can so no oil gets on the track.
