kehin Posted May 13, 2005 Report Share Posted May 13, 2005 A rack on the front for groceries n that might be handy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody Posted May 14, 2005 Report Share Posted May 14, 2005 Nice looking bike, mudguards definitely better in red than any other colour IMHO. Weren't the originals the black crinkle finish VF brand - the ones that shattered if you so much as looked at them. Anyway, your picture has inspired me to get working on mine again now and I've got the engine fitted today so progress at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffiths of wales Posted May 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 No...I'm not 'the' Griffiths of Wales' just a cheap impersonator! Glad you like the bike. HondaRS...regarding silencer, what internals are necessary for a 4 stroke? A mate of mine is dead handy with a mig welder and could easily build a better functioning unit than the one fitted. Best of luck lads, Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffiths of wales Posted May 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 Cheers all...will take your advice HRS, what colour were the m/guards originally anyway, white?, were they a specific shape or could Sammy M. sort me out? My mate has a a couple of TLR's, 200 & 250, I'll pop down there to investigate the exhaust details. Thanks again. PS..gorgeous pics of RTL's on this board, really impressive. Mark.

tlrs Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 here's 1 with original mudguards & sumpshield Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffiths of wales Posted May 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 Not so sure about the black guards..makes the bike look a bit bulky IMHO..awesome sumpguard! Is there any chance of a view from the otherside? would like a peek at the silencer. Oh yes..are these your bikes? Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuhrc Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 Think you've already seen the pics of my Seeley Mark, but here's a couple of pics of the exhaust. No baffles or pipe in it, initially thought there may not be enough back-pressure but runs superbly, no problems at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

griffiths of wales Posted May 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 Brilliant, cheers Stu. There will be an Autocad drawing designed within days..thanks again, Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffiths of wales Posted June 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 Built new alloy exhaust based on a couple of existing 'home-mades', larger tubing, mid section chamber and silencer, the bike revs out much better now and looks nice...will post picture tonight. Still need to sort out gearing as I think 1st is still a little quick for nadgery stuff..my 2nd outing was much better but I still need to get some practice in as the bike is tending to go where 'it wants' and not where I need to be going. Upcoming jobs are replacing worn camshaft bush and remove decompressor arm from cylinder head as its currently chaffing its way through the fuel line that connects the sections of the alloy tank. Any tips on removing the camshaft with minimum fuss will be gratefully accepted. Cheers all, Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffiths of wales Posted June 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2005 Here's the exhaust we manufactured for my bike...certainly runs better with a nicer note and almost as quiet.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsrfun Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 Is a RS200 different from a Seeley & what did Kondo convert, knowing this will lift a cloud of confusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsrfun Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 Thanks for that, this four stroke yearning thing that I am suffering from is making me think I want a RS200 Konda model, are there many/any about here in the UK & what might be the value & spares availability.
