Re: 250 rebuild from bits

So finally almost all together. It runs and I have had a naughty ride in our cul-de-sac just into second gear. Temp seat while I decide if I am going to have a go at re-foaming and covering the seat myself or pay for someone else to do it. I am collecting the mudguards next week from my friend who h...

Re: Morini 250 2c lower speedo side fork leg and tubes.

So got my act together!
Photos of right hand speedo drive leg. If you watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjyERLmWX68 you can see where I have tried to measure the play between the leg and the stanchion.
One more post for the 4th photo (doesn't want to let me do 4)

Re: Morini 250 2c lower speedo side fork leg and tubes.

I'm being slow digging them out to photograph them. Soon I promise! Seals from Brooks Barn are double lipped and save having 2 seals as original. ( post by EVGURU in the past for this info). https://brooksbarn.co.uk/products/ariete-fork-oil-seal-kit-ari-078.html I didn't realise this untill after my...

Mystery part!

Photos of a part I have from the box of bits for my 250 2c. Does not appear to be for this bike. Does anyone need it? Free to a good home.

Re: Stator Question

FYI; No idea of where it came from but the stator on my 250 2c also has a numbered yellow lead. (2 yellow, one green, one white wire).

Re: 250 rebuild from bits

Mark, very clear. Thanks for the explanation. Some re-timing to do on the ignition then!

Re: 250 rebuild from bits

Sadly Ian's transducers seems DOA. BUT oil in the cylinders has definitely worked. Got it started today using the blue transducers. Woo bloody hoo! Mark: can you explain why the ignition needs retarding if the transducers don't give enough advance at 6000? I would have thought to advance them. Thanks.

Re: 250 rebuild from bits

Thanks for all of the advice very much apreciated. A little oil in the cylinders seems to have helped suction/compression. I have an airfilter and transducers coming from Ian Lucas and will try again when I have these. Getting so frustrated I am likely to break something if I carry on! So have walke...

Re: 250 2c carb body

Yes I saw those, and have bought from them before. Rather more than I want to spend at the moment on a bike that does not yet start or is together yet! Thanks to Ian Lucas I have a spare carb body in the way.

Re: 250 rebuild from bits

Pretty sure I have the pick up timed correctly
Do not know about the flywheel, is there a way of testing it? Iron things stick to it!
Resistance at the green wire just below 200Ohms.
Thanks
