It probably lost in a collision with a moose? Only in Canada! Eh.

Nice Tweeking with the zip tie! I’ll remember that if I ever have to remove another. Glad you were able to get it out. I have an 80 and an 83. I was fortunate that both the switches were good. I got keys cut by that code on the cylinder. I used cyclekeysonline.com to get them cut. No problems...

Very frustrating! I’ve removed a couple. Found this pic in an old thread of a removed one. The plastic tabs need to be depressed to remove it. It comes out through the top. You almost need three hands. Come in through the back side with some small screwdrivers or pics or small metal bars and...

Nope! I try and stay away from Ebay! It died along time ago for me. Living in Canada to buy something from EBay, shipping costs are prohibitive and absolutely kill any purchase.

Before you mounted the new coils to the stator plate did you sand the coating off the coils at the mounting points?

Agreed very good stuff! I’ve patiently been awaiting the results of your experiment. Thanks for doing this. I may want to do this for future builds👍. I have five Lifan/Chinese manual transmission engines. Were there any special “Tweeks” you had to do? Have you had it running Yet? I have a...

This one was from a January, 1980 CT 70.

These are some of the ones I remember. Some were stolen from a Sea-Can this summer in the capital city of the province I live in. Edmonton. Not Cool!

I remember the old guys riding the mini bikes at the circus. It was awesome! Were they a Z50M????
