bhai basanti to bahut chamak rahi hai
congrats for the bike and it has really come out wonderfully(touch wood) besides that arun i want to ask you something about the clutch cover and the oil pump what you are using right now in the bike.
1)Thats a 5speed cover,which runs on a small oil pump(saw the pic's of the oil pump & the clutch cover behind a few pages)
2)Currently you are running on a small oil pump,(correct me if i am wrong)
3)I had done this same modification to my RX100 almost a year ago but the poblem i came across was that the clutch cover i got was the same as in the pic here and the same oil pump ok,but when we fixed it the hole where the adjuster of the oil pump goes in was not matching the slot of the oil pump pully(pully means the half round which gets pulled by the cable)
4)The oil pump cable now had become big as we had installed the small oil pump,and was not proper(is there another cable for this oil pump)
5)The wire comming out from the hole was going absolutely cross and was not matching the slot of the pully of the oil pump.
May be its a bit confusing for you to understand or make my self come out as to what i want to say.but i hope you being gone through this will know what my point is
It will be a big favour arun if you help me out with some more pic's after removing the small cover of the oil pump,in two three different directions from front,up and sides,i know i am asking you right off but this was something which i bought after saving and it didnt work out properly and it remained incomplete pls try and help me out thanks and take care

Arun, could you tell me regarding the pricing of these Tyres & also are they better than M45?Originally posted by BigBore View PostThe tyres are different this time from the regular front zapper & rear nylogrip plus. I am using Michelin M62 (2.75 x 18) in front & Michelin Sirac Street (3 x 18).
Thanks.

I completely understand your problem buddy! What you could have done is drilled another hole on the other side where the adjustor goes in and shut the old hole. Then the cable/pully wouldnt have gone cross. Take it to a good turner and get the new hole drilled and tapped according to the adjuster! Hope you got my point buddy! 
Dont mind but i wont be opening up the cover just for pics
If you still have doubts give me a buzz (+91-9892390985)
Cheers!
Thanks vasOriginally posted by vas View PostAmazing! Congrats for the new Z

Hey Karthik, the tyres are damn good as i tested them on the first day itself as its raining in Mumbai from the last couple of days. The grip on both tyres are excellent! I tried them on concrete/tar as well as a bit of off road! They both costed me Rs.3,600 (Tyre + Tube)Originally posted by karthikdattag View PostArun, could you tell me regarding the pricing of these Tyres & also are they better than M45?
Thanks.
Quality of gripping is on the same lines as of the M45 but these surely look good/muscular as they are more knoby
Cheers!!

oh no you too said the same arun thing my dad suggested the same long time "get the cover drilled so that the wire falls in straight in the slot of the pully" but then i was just imagining,like if this cover is to be fixed with a small oil pump then why has the Co made a hole further and not exactly in line with the pully
hey arun when are you comming to pune as next month i will be in india/pune for my vacation and christmas hope to see you in pune for a G2G i got your no surely will call you,thanks for your advice too take care,Christopher

Hi Everybody, i am raj from Coimbatore, i recently bought Yamaha RXZ 135 1997 Model BikeOriginally posted by BigBore View PostHello Everyone,
I bought this Yamaha RXZ (4-speed) 1997 and planning to restore it completely! Bike was in bad shape cosmetically as you can see the pics but the engine was very crispy and powerfull. I have started collecting spares for it and expect it to be ready in a months time. Keeping my fingers crossed so that i get all the desired parts i need for the rebuild.
Cheers!!

Congrats for acquiring RXZ! The bought price is justified thinking it is not in bad shape.
There are few things to be taken care before you head towards restoration. This would not even mean technical . Here it goes...
1. Identify what you want the bike to be like
2. I presume it is 4 speed model. Have you identified whether the barrel is running on standard or oversize.
3. Check with mechanic if there is any engine work involved.
4. List out the worn parts from your bike and start hunting. Remember RXZ parts are very very hard to come.
Once you have all the required, start with your restoration.
Offcourse, do go through restoration threads on this forum, I'm sure there are's a lot you can learn. I would encourage you to start a new thread and continue your restoration details.Last edited by SriramEfunds; 11-25-2010, 06:30 PM.RX100 1996 | Karizma 2004 | Karizma-R 2011 | RXZ 1999 | RX 135 1998 | RX 100 1993 | CBF150 2005 - 2011

The old model 5 speed Rxz magnet covers used to come with the hole that you have currently as i have the same one on my RXG135(5-speed) But with that cover you have to use an old model 135 oil pump. I am suprised how you are using the new pump. The later 5 speed models had the covers which you see in my pics along with the new model small oil pump.
Will be visiting Pune next week dont know about December as i will be having a very busy schedule. Do give a buzz once you are down, will be a pleasure to get in touch with you

Have you gone through my post yet? You don't even know what machine is RXZ all about, don't jump in stating 'I want to make powerful bike'. You'll not get help unless you understand what is 2 stroke is all about.Originally posted by rajtamil143 View PostThank You Sriram, yes its 4 speed and E3 bore. its having Mikuni carb (Made in Japan) thats all i known.
