Ignition rotor

Unfortunately my bike doesn't have any ignition parts, the team purchase of a camel 501 has moved it forward but the ignition rotor was damaged and I'm on the lookout for one please. Regards Ian

Re: Grimeca brake caliper piston sizes question.

Great you ended up not needing a solution but i've read and think there is a video that people machine down 18mm pistons to fit from the same kart brake. Hope this helps.

Re: Tyres

This threads quite old and the world of tyres has moved on.
I need a pair of tyres for my 500 sport, the hoops of ebony I removed were 90/90 x 18 and 120/90 x 18 but I'm suspicious the rear has some side chafing.

Can anyone recommend some decent modern stuff

Re: Armours Silencers

Just like to refresh this thread. Am thinking of designing my own pipes for my 500 as had to cut the pipes off due to stuck castellated nuts. I use the Graham Bell book quite a bit to design my pipes, usually 2 stroke. Is it back pressure or tuned length that is critical to a Morini. Bit like the sl...

Rubber components/badges

Apologies if this is old news, but these boys have really interesting stock of rubber parts that are more expensive elsewhere. Inlet rubbers fork my Kanguro €40 a pair.

Bulbs

Can someone tell me the correct bulb for the pilot light on an X1 Kanguro. Mine has a blown 12v but think it should be 6v.
Also the tail/brake is an 8w/15w, is this correct?
Cheers Ian

Re: Saving the Kanguro from decay

Thank you for the info. Will strip old switch out and take copious photos. I may end up re-using the off/on/on rocker with it's correct contacts in a none broken housing, if new switch doesnt have the correct contacts. In "Park I can get a full house of lights, but in position "on" or...
