Hey Mike, Thanks for the invite to the group. I am a 53 y/o male that has been riding two wheels for the better part of my life. A few years ago the VA put...
I have been a member for awhile; however this is my first post. My project consists of a 1980 Suzuki 550, 10hp Yanmar clone, Comet 94C/90D. I do not have much...
Dieselbikin, I have a very simular setup using a 10hp clone, Suzi GS850 frame (1980) that I converted to chain drive using the swing arm from a '79 GS 750 and...
Cris, Here is a cut and paste from one of my posts on diesel-bike.com Also, I am shooting for 60 MPH and trying 15/50 sprockets. I have made several calls to...
Dieselbikin, I'm no longer on the other list :-( too much spam. ... I'm running 16/80 tooth, #50 sprockets, with a top end estimated at 60 mph. Yes, big...
... Trust me, you wouldn't want an Aixam. I test drove a new one once. It looks like a 'proper' car but as soon as you start up all the thin fibreglass ...
Hey Dieselbikin, Your bike is look'in great, keep up the good work!!! I took a close look at your engines crankshaft, but it was difficult to make it all out...
Im still working on this problem of mine, Lombardini ld400 fitted into Enfield( Charging problem). Has anyone got any knolage about regulators/ rectifiers. I...
Grant, Do you have a wiring schematic that was provided with the engine you can scan and send my way? I'm pretty good with alternator and charging systems. ...
The engine does have a 1" shaft. I'm using a 94C driver/90D driven. It's deeper and has a larger diameter than a 500 series. That is why my design is a little...

Andy, Honda was going way faster with a 50cc race bike back in the early 60's. As for a diesel/electric for $5,500 I'll believe it when they are selling them...
I can believe it's possible..... barely. It might be a pretty slippery shape, cutting co-efficient of drag. With the little engine screaming... AND the...
Well I phrased my question carefully. 80mph. no bigger than 219cc. No racers. No twins. Production road bike. I can't think of any, I just wondered if anyone...
The question becomes... "How much horsepower does it take to see 80 mph?" They old Kaw Bushwacker (that I posted earlier) had 19hp. Is that enough? ...

Nick, My host had a server blow out and they had to restore the DieselBike.net site from backed up data. We didn't lose anything or any of the posts to the...
For those of us with output-challenged electrical systems I suppose this could be one means of supplying a bit more juice to the battery. And serves double...
