Start a new thread & we will see what can be done. You may be new to the thread as well as the bike, but atleast pen down your thoughts on what are your expectations from the bike.

You said,"Powerful", but how much, street use can be in the range of 12 to 18BHP (For RX135), depends on what you want !!!

@Arun, thanks for the reply on Michelin Tyres.

Hey Christopher,
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

Cheers!

you know arun the time i purchased these covers i didnt knew much about the small/big oil pump but i asked the guy, No need of any change will this support the same oil pump,he then said no his cover has a cross oil pump slot(like in this pic you showed) so it needs a small oil pump,and it will not support the old big oil pump,he practically showed me two oil pumps big/small and then the matched the slot and said "sir now you see this is the old big oil pump the two hole of this one is not matching the holes that of the cover,then he replaced it with the small oil pump and said now you see this one matches face to face that of the cover and the small oil pump

so i gave a thought and also bought the small pump and when we started to replace the cover and the pump & came across with this prob.

hole and pully slot not matching

I feel it must be some manufacturing defect

Maybe i am wrong!

. Bugger he is trying to fool me

lol...23k on the engine ! rofl...you would be surprised to know a 1998 RXZ was sold for 3.5k back here...was quite a decent and well maintained bike with a smooth engine...

**BigBore** · 11-28-2010, 11:39 AM

@ nin - Thanks Bro

if there is such kind of deal happen again plz pm me

**RX88** · 11-29-2010, 01:24 PM

3.5k for a 'Z' was the seller in his senses or he just got rid of it,even if he dismantled the bike and sold it as parts he would have surely got more than 15k i guess or may be more

as parts are rare to find,a brand new 18gear cyle is also costlier than the price he sold

any way lucky is the one who got it congrats

it was one of my uncle's bike...and a few years ago after he passed away my aunt had just given it to her neighbour to ride...the idiot got rid of it later and was content with 3.5k..

funnier part: the guy who bought for 3.5k invested some money(dont know what changes he made) and again sold it for 5k...lol

Hi Arun.

Great Job on the restore dude. The bike looks amazing. Another beauty to add to your collection.

**RX88** · 11-30-2010, 10:57 PM

if i knew about a deal like this i would have given the second buyer 5,200rs but if he still wouldnt have agreed i would have told him take more 300rs thats all i have i am sure he would have sold it thinking i am getting 500 more better sell it

hazar do hazar ki lalach me 20,000 ki gadi bech di bevakuf
