Properly I completed The Honda SL100K2. It appears to be like actually good and I’m very proud of the best way all of the cosmetics turned out. It actually did wind up making me work a lot tougher that I actually wished too however I wound up with a model new trying outdated motorbike that might begin on the primary kick.
It fought me all the best way to the bitter finish, I believed I had it working completely however then the final half that I had not changed but crapped out on me. The unique stator labored properly at first however after I let the bike sit for a month or two between the VJMC Nationwide Rally and the Classic Honda Rally on the Copperhead Motorbike Lodge it give up on me and killed the battery.
First I attempted a copy stator from eBay however the wiring colours didn’t match and the looks of the wiring plug and sheathing didn’t match the unique so I put it on the shelf and ordered a N.O.S. alternative from David Silver Spares & placed on it. If anybody within the Continental U.S. want to purchase the copy stator from me, I’ll take $50 shipped simply to do away with it.
Ultimately I completed my purpose to carry out an award successful restoration from one of many largest turds to ever come into my workshop. This little Honda SL100K2 picked up an Award of Benefit on the 2019 VJMC Nationwide Rally and one other on the 2019 Classic Honda Rally.
What’s subsequent for this little machine? Properly that’s as much as the brand new proprietor as I offered it in the course of the Barber Classic Motorsports Competition in October of 2019. I’ve bought a number of new tasks within the works and wanted some cash for them. So maintain your eyes open for the subsequent Motopsycho undertaking bike.
