The Official Coimbatore Offline Meet(G2G) Thread

[dual disc 200]

Lijo, you can get at Palaniappa Stores in Cross Cut Road, opposite to Aditya.. I believe they are authorized dealers for LS2 helmets. Its an exclusive store unlike Aditya...

Me too wanted to buy a helmet. Narrowed it down to SOL SL68s II Solid Plain orLS2 FF384.5 Speed Gloss White.. SOL costs 4k while LS2 costs 3.5... Kindly advise.

SOL costs 4k right ji, but include the following in your invoice too;

1. Smoked or Iridium Visor if needed - 650(I guess for smoked & 750 for Iridiums)
2. TNT Insured Courier charges Rs.500

Which will add upto Rs.5250/-

2G spectrum ah? If i could have been a 0.0000001 % part of that innovative project, i would have been riding my fav XTW, not in desi R15

This is what i like about you Deepak ji, Filthy rich yet so..Humble..Way to Go....

Cheers !!

Will be something like the "Black Pearl"...













Will dedicate a thread for the full restoration later on...As the work pace carried out is going to be pretty fast.

Here's the thing that goes into the bike;

1. Std Rx-100 kit that came with the bike itself as it runs like a gem
2. OE Black Rx-100 tank with pin stripes
3. OE Painted Black side door
4. New Front & Rear fenders
5. New HH Splendor Spokes for both front & rear
6. OE Exhaust assy with bend pipe, core, exhaust rope & Gaskets
7. Needs re-working on the crank case as there is crankshaft ply (Yes, the entire assy. has play not the connecting rod.)
8. New lighting coils
9. OE Clutch basket with new Clutch & pressure plates
10. OE kicker assy
11. Possible changes to Bottom end bearings
12. OE Chain covers
13. Rx 100 Oil tank with 135 lens cover (in search of the OE needle assy)
14. All cabling changes
15. Clutch, Magneto covers, Head, Front outer forks, front, rear hubs & chassis painting under Suru's scope as no one is willing to accept flying orders..

How is the fork inner tubes ? usually you get longitudinal scratches leading to leak, ...so get it checked..
What did you mean by Crank play ? is the main bearing having gap in it's fitting to the crankcase ? or crank pin had become loose with respect to its fitting on the crank lobe ?
For all your parts requirement there is a Senior RX Restorer ,who has tons of parts ,and is also helpful.....

Psr ji,
The inner tubes are ok and doesn't have any scortch marks longitudinally. Yes, PSR Ji the main bearing has gap fitting in to the crank case and will be worked on..

Parts, have got all OEM parts in stable ji, waiting for Suresh to finish the paint job & will start assembling..

Oh great the work started and hope the work is going in a fast phase ....
Will come directly to the garage and see

Group Riding - Another Reminder

Ram, thanks a ton for the pics. I myself was thinking about a visit but due to work and transport, not been able to come. I have enquired in a lot of places about the painting. Possibly by tomorrow evening, should finalize the place. Will call you. The guy with whom I had a talk with seems to be keen on picking up some commission. So I will go directly and meet the painter and will have a chat. Anways, will keep you posted.

@all: A couple of tips if havent already seen.

[SriramEfunds]

Suru/Ram and others :- Pardon me for a little OT. Can't wait till you open a thread.

1. Change all the bearing and engine oil seals (HTA seals are available for Rs. 150/- they are OE suppliers to Yamaha)
2. If you have time visit Vijaydeep in Bangalore for crank setting. They are the BEST.
3. Just before you go for painting, weld a piece to the frame (area just below the tank) to place YEIS powerbox just incase you want to go for. (optional)
4. Change the swing arm bush (Must)
5. FYI.. whenever you remove the cylinder and place it back, tend to make more 'bore noise' (experience)
6. Get the old RX100 2T side oil tank for the needle gauge to give authentic look.
7. Mildly smoothen the exhaust port (option) for slightly peppy ride. This is not porting.
8. Coat the inner walls of fenders with undercoat paint to prevent rust formation.
9. For unconditional help, call me!

Welcome...Welcome...

Not a problem at all ji, Let me about the painting work & we shall work out something.

Suru/Ram and others :- Pardon me for a little OT. Can't wait till you open a thread.

Will do that Sri, just that the restoration phase will be pretty fast for the logs to be put in, so will finish the ISG2G and put up as a whole log trip..Wat say?

1. Change all the bearing and engine oil seals (HTA seals are available for Rs. 150/- they are OE suppliers to Yamaha)

Hunting for Koyo bearings, and seals they are from YASS..

2. If you have time visit Vijaydeep in Bangalore for crank setting. They are the BEST.

The Crank shaft isn't the problem sri, the lower bearing space fitting into the crank case has seen it's age and has play from left to right. That is what we are looking to solve at..
Btw. You should atleast pay a flying visit to Cbe, juat to show you we've got better Petrol head mechs more than Bangy.. :-)

3. Just before you go for painting, weld a piece to the frame (area just below the tank) to place YEIS powerbox just incase you want to go for. (optional)

That's a nice idea, again need to ask Suru if he wants one..

4. Change the swing arm bush (Must)

Suzuki Samurai Bush already procured i guess..

5. FYI.. whenever you remove the cylinder and place it back, tend to make more 'bore noise' (experience)

Will seat it with OE gaskets plus liquid gaskets which will eventually settle the noise down, but again let me see what can be done..

6. Get the old RX100 2T side oil tank for the needle gauge to give authentic look.

No way Sri, you know how difficult it was to get..again i'm on a hunt..will see how lucky Suru is..

7. Mildly smoothen the exhaust port (option) for slightly peppy ride. This is not porting.

Never thought of this, but again let me try this..

8. Coat the inner walls of fenders with undercoat paint to prevent rust formation.

This will be done by myself Sri, so never put it in the painting section..

9. For unconditional help, call me!

I know..I know....Will Bug you for Sure...

Any luck on the Plugs Sri??

Good to see TWO dedicated RX restorers exchanging useful info....
I guess you have to change both inner crank cases to get correct fitting of the crank bearings.
The Land of Kari is the land of Mods, .....remember to set the timing with strobe...just a suggestion.

[dpak89]

Dropped my bike in SVC to repair the damages. Have been slapped a 11k bill :'( excluding insurance have to pay nearly 4k for body parts alone! Limited edition body parts are too costly

Yes they worth the money ... I really love that 50th year Limited Edition.....

Yes Ji they are not only dedicated restorers they will build RX in the right way it should be built....


Koyo bearings I heard some one saying it is with them in excess... Will go through my contacts and will tell you ASAP Ram Ji....

[SriramEfunds]

@Ram :- As PSR Sir said, you might need to go for the new inner crankcase set or even good condition used one. Try B'lore for 2T Oil tank. It's been raining the whole week here. Will surely get the plug for the group.
