56 with a Honda GC190 build thread

[oil-lamp]

Got my new welder in today I hope to have new photos soon. I did manage to ruff out the shape for my jackshaft bracket tonight. It may look strange but it will mount in the same holes as the transmission mounts too. I just hope there's enough room for the bearings one form or another.

Where can you find the lighting coils and steel flywheels for the GC190 engine?
I picked up a GC190 for one of my extra frames and need a third winter project.

HG, I saw this one a few days back but I do not see one currently...ebay # 371172270587 but it has sold.

You may also check some mini bikes and go cart shops on the web. Racing go carts brings up several.

I will keep a eye out for another.

Spoke a little soon use "flywheel gx" and hays brings up a lot like # 121166239031 but ask questions before you buy.

Thanks for the info. I talked with BJM yesterday at their shop and got info from him too.

How about posting the info you got from BJM?

[HGontheHD]

Rick,
 The info I got from BJM was more related to the mounting plate they used. They welded theirs in place and I would like to make a bolt on mount plate so a person could go back to an original motor if every desired. I've worked out a pattern and will try to get it cut out next week.
I'll post more as I work my way through the flywheel and lighting coils also.

Ok here's what I've been working on. I still have lots to tweaking to do but two twelve hours shifts this weekend is going to make it rough.

And this list one is the change up on the braking system.

I've got to move the engine forward about a inch maybe?

[pd]

Things a bit too tight ?

Pete .

[Sonrisers]

looking good Reese.

[oil-lamp]

Yea a little tight for now and a piss pore tack but it's already scheduled for tear down and rebuild. Going to put the bearings on top and spread them apart I hope.

[pd]

Will the shaft clear the brace with the bearings on top ?
Or , will you reset the bearing mounts to the top ?

Pete .

[oil-lamp]

Pd, no I don't think it will clear but I will be moving them anyway one inside one outside. That will also get me to the eight and what ever inches apart to work. Then I will make some kind of attachment to keep it from moving and someplace to mount the idler pulley too.
