anyone with experience with chinese "punsun" V2 engine? could be quite nice on guzzi frame... MotoJussi & California K -- pub 1024D/8A74B6F8 2005-03-25 Jussi...
I posted a picture of the Punsun, where in California are you?, I tossed the idea around using a punsun in one of my conversions. They were listed on ebay for...
I know this has been hashed & rehashed a number of times. I'm sorry to bring it up again, but i just put my Norton stuff on Ebay. (couple gearboxes, clutch &...
... every enfield conversion has a gearbox, the gearbox is what makes a enfield such a popular choice for a conversion. i have ridden a few enfield conversion,...
I sold my CVT, hell with screwing around with a clutch and gear box. I've decided in a centrifugal clutch (Noram), period, one speed. Yes, I think it will work...
... I'd say keep your Norton. The BSA or Triumph are of equal quality, no difference between the three of them. I get the impression that as long as you know...
... I understand Diesel engines tend to be heavy compared to motorcycle engines. What would you recommend for good performance and light weight? ... Suggest...
Well I am going to pitch in and argue that a CVT is better. A diesel runs best within a narrow rev range, it is happier working at that rev range and coping...
HMM Things to ponder thanks! still undecieded about boat or bike as this motors final destination. I think it will become a bike if I find a transmission on...
HI. Located your site today and I am fascinated with the idea we can build these. I will take some time to read all the old posts and come up to speed but Im...
Keith, I've got a Suzuki GS850 that I converted and barely had enough room. Smallest bike I've seen converted is Honda XR650 and Suzuki GS550. Of course, these...
Heh Cris; This is good info for me. I think I will lay back a bit more and get the best deal on the bigest frame I can. I was on another site last night and...
Keith, If you use a small framed bike, you'd better have all the shop equipment for frame mods. In my case, all I had to do was cut and remove most of the...
Heh Cris: Good news, I have a lead on a 750 honda size frame and yes, I do have tools to work with, here on the farm. I tend to do what I can myself so I have...
Keith, Sounds like you have all the right stuff. The 750 frame will give you plenty of room (with less modification) for a 10hp engine and Comet torque ...
Keith, My build is using a Honda 750 frame and 10 HP clone. I'd be happy to swap ideas and experience if interested. You can get a glimpse of my initial...

Hello everyone, I'm a new member hailing from Atlanta, GA, USA. I'm purchasing a 436cc Greaves diesel Enfield (4 speed) and eagerly awaiting its arrival. I...
I checked out the vanclone pages..very cool looking. Ill keep an eye on progress, thanks Ron Im pretty excited about all this but my wife put a major damper on...
Erik, IMHO, a side car will slow you down. These engines barely make enough power to get out of their own way. Your engine will be closer in power to a Enfield...
Keith, In your design, give yourself space for a BIG battery. This will help with starting, and keeping the lights burning at all times when driving. The stock...
If you look at http://www.dieselbike.net/privateconversionsI-Z.htm and scroll down you will see an 850 diesel bike with a sidecar. In my opinion you will find...
Erik, I have some experience with a Diesel Powered Sidecar. http://tinyurl.com/2w8ztp http://tinyurl.com/337ssd http://tinyurl.com/2uzyal I do think you would...
Thanks for your responses guys. I'm going with the sidecar. How will I know what it's like any other way? The bike ships in 2 weeks, which means it'll...
Erik, I looked at MotorEarth's website, but they didn't have any info on importing diesel bikes. I'd like to hear how it all goes for you. Thanks, Cris ... ...
If you don't have any sidecar experience I recommend that you download that sidecar riding manual and read it carefully. To start with, put a lot of weight in...
