Superb work sir! I would also suggest you to get a set of mirrors for the bike.

Great job...Originally posted by Mr.Boss View Post5s conversion completed
No change in bore, head, car, sprockets (as of now), just plonked the 5s gearbox.

I have RX135 4 speed 2002 model. I'm planning to change my only gearbox not piston or block. Can you explain the conversion process in detail ? (without change in piston setup). Do I need to consider any other changes for this. I’m not looking for very costly conversion, my budget is 10k including gearbox and labour. Do I have to change the clutch plate assembly also ? Any changes in engine housing?. Please help me. Thank You.

You may change only the GB, all other parts can remain same.Originally posted by rinto View PostI have RX135 4 speed 2002 model. I'm planning to change my only gearbox not piston or block.

Downside will be lesser wheel end torque on 5th gear (for the same engine rpm of original 5s set up)

Noticed lag in acceleration and as suspected, it's the clogged carburetor this time
Rust inside the carb, thanks to the fuel tank
Amount of rust from the fuel filter
Spark plug condition
And finally CLEAN carburetor and new fuel filter
A short drive after the above DIY

Awesome ji! Why don't you use JAWA-Type Filter from PACCO ? I'm using it on my bike and I feel it's much better than the OE filter in my bike and I think it will help in avoiding rust or other debris from getting into the Carburettor.[My Motorcycle]

Oh OK.Mine is doing well.The Glass is a bit fragile and you also need to have good and properly tight hose pipes that connect to the filter.I got new hose pipes so that that filter stays firmly.I am having a good experience with it.Anyways,Best of luck on this RXOriginally posted by Mr.Boss View PostHad a bad experience in past and stopped using it.
