Mine had that drain hole at the bottom from the factory. My solution to the problem was to immediately remove the whole exhaust system, pour some...
The original SL125 muffler (the version we got in Australia) was very prone to rusting out at the highest point where it bolted to the frame. My...
If I were setting out today to achieve the result you are after, I would probably do the same as you are doing. However when I modified mine back...
That should save a lot of messing about. I notice the cylinder is even cast with 144CM3 on the side. I think it is actually 144.66, but that is...
I don't remember having to relieve the crankcase to allow the sleeve to fit but it was a long time ago. About the same year your SL125 was built.
Can you get hold of a sleeve from a CB77? That was how I avoided the problem that has you slightly concerned. If memory serves me correctly, the...
I was surprised that there was no mention of the Suzuki Hustler from the late 1960s. I thought that part of their advertising in 1967 was that it...
Did that version of the stroked crankshaft use a spacer and a longer cam chain? The version I had heated and shrank the conrod so that the piston...
I took a different approach to improve the performance of my SL125. I swapped the crankshaft for a stroked crankshaft that took the displacement...

I have made a lot of gaskets by sitting the gasket material on the item and tapping gently on the edges with a small hammer so that the sharp edge...
The rim would be centred between the forks even if the hub isn't though wouldn't it? Mine is. That is pretty easy to measure.
The amount of axle I can see between the fork leg and the hub looks the same as mine. My rim is centred exactly between the forks. Have the spokes...
Yes, my SL125 survived being stroked to 145cc, then bored to 175cc, fitted with a hot cam and run on alcohol at about 13:1 compression.
I was given a CB100 a few year ago with a hole right through where you have a slight rub mark from a sloppy cam chain.. I filled it with Araldite...
Did some countries get a 1980 CB250RS with a starter motor? Trying to find the answer in various sources has only confused me. Some describe the...
I see that one uses the offset straightcut gears like those on my 1969 Honda CL175. According to the manual, that made them quieter and stronger...
Back when electric bikes first appeared in Australia, I served as a flag marshal a few times at Wakefield Park. It was around the time that...
