I agree about the kickstarter problem - even the widecase is stronger.
Problem with desmo is that a valvelifter is not an option.
But i think that some of the non desmo had valvelifter.

Thats sounds heavy. - my 250 is heavy to kick over but i dont have the feeling that it will kick back.

Static is 5-8 degrees and advanced it is 36 -38 according to the manual.

I have the original Electronic ignition system at my 250 Desmo and would try to set the timing with a stroboscope.

But i am not sure where to find the marks,
There are som at the clutch cover - a line and a dot but nothing at the crankshaft - at least as far as i can see.

Do i need some special ...

It sounds interesting with a full flow filter, but how about the extended time before the oil reach the big end.
I am thinking about when starting up the engine after a while. As i understand the flowdirection, the filterhouse need to be completly filled up with oil before it goes to the ...

This Silver Shotgun really looks perfect.
I am restoring a 250 Desmo at the moment and i would also really like to see som more pictures.

Thanks for the advises,

Then i think i will adjust the preload to 0,03 -0,05 mm and thereafter check that the crankshaft can rotate by its own weight as described.

Thanks, i will give the crankshaft a little preload.

I sat the endfloat to nil and no preload for about 10.000 km ago at my crankshaft, but now there seems to be a little endfloat.
Using a dial indikator I can measure around 0,01-0,02mm.
Is that acceptable or should i do something about it ?

I am rebuilding my 250 engine and now i have to shim and fit my crankskaft.

According to Haynes Workshop manual the end float should be 0,03 -0,05mm
As far as i remember, my V twinn have zero end float - but it is properly because of the angel bearings ?

hi Jon,

I am 100% sure that the timing advancing is done by the step at the rotor.
There are two steps on the rotor- one for lower timing and one for higher timing. The lowest step is for the higher advancing.
The lower step takes over when the RPM excees approx. 1700 RPM.

My Bevel is a S2 with ...

HI Martin

I have seen it at Kaemna in germany but the producer is: www.ignitech.cz

and they are located in Czech Republic.

I wrote about a person who put the system on a bevel, but i have never heard about the final result.

Hi,
Does anyone have experience with Ignitech TCIP4 as a replacement for Bosch inducers.

My main consideration is that the timing advance is done by the rotor with two steps ( step one below 1700 RPM and step two over 1700 RPM) at the Bosch system.
At Igitech the timing advance is done in as a ...

at my S2 from 83 the neutral switch is sitting outside just behind the sprocket.
In same area here should be an excentric from the gearbox activating the switch.

The switch is located in a approx. Ø12- 15 mm hole in engine case and is held with a M6 screw.

Hope this can help.
