Re: 250 2c

Hi Paul, Thanks for your fast response. Just need to find a 350 regulator now then. I am using your videos as a guide to my rebuild and they are really helpful. Apart from Bulbs and battery, is there anything else I need to do or have missed ? I have checked the rest of the wiring and think it would...

Re: 250 2c

I ran Metzler ME22s on mine, the narrow 2.75 and 3.00 sizes specified. Very nimble, but sure footed. The original headlamp was OK, but you have to use the right bulb. Osram were fine, but others gave no beam pattern. The alternator is the same as a 12v bike, all you have to is upgrade the regulator...

Re: Sprockets wanted

Hi, Good to see you gut sorted. I will be needing the chain and sprockets also as my 250 progresses. What was the cost of the sprocket and chain please and also do you have the part number or reference for the parts from B and C. Thanks

250 2c /350 sport fairing screen Now sorted thanks

Hi all,
I have a nose fairing from a 350 sport and want to fit it to my 2c. I am trying to find a screen and ideally the fitting brackets for the fairing. Any help would be useful. The screen is about 388mm at it's widest. Thanks for looking.

Re: Engine gasket set for the 2C

Thanks Mark,
I have dismantled the clutch and the friction side of the half plate is nicely removed itself and stuck to the housing so now after clutch plates aswell. Glad I checked it as it could have been interesting later one.

Re: 2C Slow progress

That's fine then thanks. I have just dismantled the clutch and now need parts for that. The half plate has left it's friction sections nicely stuck to the clutch housing. The friction plates arent too bad but might replace all the plates. Any idea where I might get some please, thanks

Re: 2C Slow progress

Hi, I see you had the head off yours and wondered where you got the head gasket from. Good write up of your bike. Keith

Re: Engine gasket set for the 2C

Hi Ming, Only done 16000KM but has been standing for a long time. The frame is off for powder coating so thought I would go through the engine and check all is ok. The clutch was heavy but I did get her to run after a cambelt change and carb clean. I am just making sure all is well before she goes b...

Re: Engine gasket set for the 2C

Hi Mark, Sorry for the slow reply, been off the hooks for a few days. I have downloaded the blue manual from the club site; If you have the clutch plates available that would be really helpful. If you could let me have your paypal account I will send you whatever the cost is. I will be getting the c...

Re: Engine gasket set for the 2C

I don't think the bottom end has a problem so when I get the heads off , I will check to see if there is any play and decide then. I have now gotten the outer case gaskets and the oil seal set. I already had the rocker gaskets and the oil filter one. I am now looking at what special tools I will nee...

Re: Engine gasket set for the 2C

Thanks for the replies. I will go through the options and see what I end up with. Looking forward to stripping the engine and see what I have got.
