Classickid21 Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Hey guys sorry I haven't done a forum for sometime. my partner has been in and out of hospital Stressful times things started to chill out again, I purchased on ebay 1st November this year two Honda NSR's both missing too much, I have broken the jc20 alcasta bike up for parts to sell back on ebay. so I can fund the jc 22 foxeye model.personally I love to restore bikes but I am thinking on a low budget I may just rebuild the engine, rat the bike or street fighter Any opinions ?Rebuild the engine it has a 150 cc crank in the bottom end from what I can see it needs big end and seals, top end is 65.0m polini big bore I may go back to standard to keep the funds down and restrictions of new laws. back to a 54.0mm barrel having a 150cc crank and a 125cc barrel Would this cause any problems not too fussed about going fast its just a project toy to do up this winter. barrel needs a replate no matter what any places any one can recommend..? Honda jc20 frame I did all my home work before buying but! 12 digit Vin number ??? is this common 1980's ? every vin checker on line is 17 digit I tried to decode it online not sure if I should put the numbers online but I am not aloud to ADMIN PLEASE LET ME KNOW ILL REMOVE THEM Hi-Jc20*205095* Quote
eastanglianbiker Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 by the time you rebuild or replace the crank/big end /conrod assembly and the barrel with new piston kit it would work out cheaper to buy a standard engine that is known to be good Quote
