Stormin 4,458 #179 Posted March 27, 2015 It's looking good Norm, nice work on the track rods Thanks. Should have taken a photo of 'em fitted. By the way, you know black paint needs flames don't you.. Never mind flames. Just keep reminding me not to paint anything else black. 1 meadowfield reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 4,458 #187 Posted March 29, 2015 The fan guard is silver, so I thought I'd better balance it out. Pleased you approve. 1 nigel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 4,458 #188 Posted March 31, 2015 Managed to get a bit more done today. Kind of commuted 'tween workshop and house. Prep a part, prime and into the house to dry. Back out to repeat and so on.. Got the carb cleaned up and painted. Ready to fit. Did think about polishing it, then sanity returned. Air filter back plate painted and ready to fit. Seat to fender parts all finished ready to fit. Starter motor painted and ready to fit. Belt guard and opposite side panel cleaned up and insides primed. Considering the diabolical weather here, Freezing gale force wind, sun, rain and sleet taking turns about, I'm rather pleased with my efforts. P.S. Ok! Photo's tomorrow. Maybe! 1 the showman reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ian 2,417 #189 Posted March 31, 2015 I rather like the silver bit's, they work very well with the black Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 4,458 #192 Posted April 1, 2015 A little more progress this afternoon. Carb and air filter fitted. Seat fitted. Drive belt back on. Starter motor fitted. Inside of belt guard and inside opposite side cover painted. Some of the throttle linkage connected. Here I've hit a snag. How the cable connects is not clear on my photo's. Or in the manual print out I have and though the same engine as the C-125, the linkage is not the same. Anyway, here's some photo's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

meadowfield 1,900 #195 Posted April 1, 2015 Looking good, I've pics back home... The cable runs just under the exhaust outlet I think and I to a small clamp on the block before the inner connects to the rocker with the spring across to the governor arm.

Stormin 4,458 #196 Posted April 1, 2015 I think I've worked it out now Mark. But to be on the safe side a good pic' would be welcome. I can't set it up anyway, 'till I get the fan guard done and on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anglo Traction 1,016 #197 Posted April 1, 2015 Looking God still Norm....Black n a bit of Silver was the way to go If it helps you, here's a few. As Mark says, it passes under the Exhaust Nipple and bends around and down- Then the Outer Cable is clamped at this point- Inner Cable end is fastened to the bottom of the Pivot Arm that is bolted to the Blower Shroud (pic if you need it).

Stormin 4,458 #199 Posted April 1, 2015 Thanks Richard. I was thinking the cable clip was horizontal, not angled. Chris. That looks a different set up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
