Interesting, it says on the product page that some aluminum gas to be removed from the case.

Was yours a 4 speed? This is what I saw on DrATVs site http://dratv.com/ctsl64.html

I get where you are coming from, but is it really impacting the value of the engine? I wouldn’t say cutting a small notch for clearance is “hacking it up” it’s still a functional H motor. I would rather see the matching H engine stay in the matching H bike. If it were a pristine, untouched...

I’ve done some figuring, and i would have to find a pretty screaming deal on a complete lower end for it to make sense to go with a CRF/XR bottom (I’m talking sub $100 including flywheel/stator). I am finding most INCOMPLETE bottoms for $200+. What I did find, though, is a CDI unit for the H...

I’ve reached out to TBolt for some guidance, so hopefully I get some good feedback. I could also use some help with sourcing a lower end. Exactly which models will work without modification with a 12V system? I know any CRF/XR 50/70 will work. But what about some of the older models? Seems...

Can you guys comment on this item Fromm TBolt? If I were to source just the cases and not a complete bottom end, would this work out? https://tboltusa.com/store/gold-flywheel-and-standard-ignition-stator-br-with-lighting-p-5325.html

@kirrbby, excellent perspective and advice as usual! @racerx, you have excellent points about future costs and knowing that it was done right. I really don’t plan on letting this bike go for a while, so that plays a big impact. I guess my hesitation is the cost. I originally set out to just...

Racerx, you hit the nail on the head with your comments on “stock appearing”. That is exactly where my head is at. The big items that make the HK0 stand, they are what I want to keep. Like you said, engine guard, exhaust, headlight/speedo combo, paint, decals. I am alright with some minor tweaks...

How does this setup run? Speed, torque, etc. Very nice looking bike, very comparable with what I would like to do.

@vintagehondatrailbikes, Wow! Those are some awesome examples! Thank you for taking the time to explain and post. Now my gears are really turning (or maybe screeching to a halt LOL)... Here is my thought process, and I know you guys can't make the decision for me, but I like thinking out...

Thanks racerx, I think that clears it up for me. It seems I had read all that stuff before, but never in the same spot and concise enough for me to follow (y). The main thing I came away with there is that I would need to source a 12V flywheel and figure out a lighting coil. That seems a bit...

Alright gurus, I'm about to throw a wrench in my plans... Came across a couple threads that made me ponder building my 108 using ATC70 cases as a base. It sounds like I could get the benefit of CDI ignition, and maybe better parts selection? Am I off base here? Here is why I am...

Major progress update... The CT is off of the patio and into the garage. I saw a brilliant idea around the forum to use a desk chair base as a work stand. This is gonna work out great. I think I will need an adapter plate of some sort, due to the chair mounting base being just irregular enough...

:LOL: .... that’s what all people who live in mom’s basement say ;) Welcome aboard! Hopefully we can learn together here!

Well, racerx, your comments have completed what I had hoped for; the Holy Trinity of CT knowledge chiming in with advice :notworthy:. Thank you for pointing out my omission of the high flow oil pump. That is a MUST on my list, I just overlooked it in my original posts. Your clarification of...

Great info Kirrbby. So, just the TB Disk kit should work out okay, stock springs are sufficient? As far as the head is concerned, I suppose a stock head isn't that difficult to come by, so using it wont be that big of loss. I guess I was thinking that i would be risking it a little more by...

Well, now you have me waffling a bit. I was originally going to go with the 88cc and stock head, for simplicity and cost sake. That was until a buddy picked up a beat up HK0 and is building it right now with a stroker. I mean, I can't let that happen can I!? :cautious: I think I will go with...

Understood, I do not intend to cruise @ 55mph. Most (and for me, most means MAYBE once a month) of the time I will be on 35mph roads for short distances. Other than that, it will be in neighborhood 25mph zones. Occasional trot in the woods and yard at a buddy's place. I have zero intention of...

Thanks @kirrbby ! I have based a lot of my decisions of the info you have provided in other threads. So, thank you for already contributing to getting this thing going again! More input is always welcome :D

Alright 'fellers, I have decided to start the build on my HK0! Its been a while since I've poked around or posted on here, but I'm ready to get back in it! I'm typically long-winded. I've tinkered with some vintage Honda stuff for a while now, but haven't done much lately due to house projects...
