i had a few issues with the new Pinasco clutch 7 spring (older type) to be honest ill never go back to a cosa type now as this works great and was cheaper also i fitted it with the geared spacer from the original oil pump and it was dragging a little so i stripped it again and changed it for an older non injection spacer which was .4 mm thinner this fixed the problem straight away So went out on the scoot today for the first run, MOT was a breeze did 30 miles and it feels like a torque monster , i live on a big set of hills and it pulled 4th easy everywhere . for now obvioulsy ive got to take it easy for a while but the carb seems spot on (thanks for the suggestions on jetting) running a 55/100 pilot, 160 AC, BE3 and a 145 main jet. for now , ill keep you posted once ive run it in thanks again guys !

ive changed lots because they were f**ked or old type seals but i also had an engine come back to me for a service with a smell of fuel in the oil, i was sure id used the best seals and done a good build and was talking to a dealer about this , he told me to ask the lad had he had flooding issues as he had had a few he was convinced they pushing fuel under pressure past the seal i was sceptical ,,,, anyway the lad told me it had filled barrel and the exhaust up 3 or 4 times and been a f**ker to start but he had changed his float needle and cured it , the dealer said refill the oil and check it after 50 miles , no smell of fuel and again at 200 and 500, im sure the seal may not be 100% but it certainly is ok for now ,,,, i

id like to give you the 100% answer but im only 80% sure , so maybe the guys on here can jump in ,As i understand some newer oils have to much detergent in them and this can harm the clutch plates , you need a classic low detergent/dispersant monograde lubricant . id wait and get a oil thats right instead of just throwing so in that your have to hand , ,hope this helps

Hi Guys , Ive just fittted a Drt float bowl spacer with my DRT carb , it came with 2 spacers a 1 mm and a 3mm Do you know why you would need the options , i figured if i need more fuel it makes sense to fit the bigger one , but why the option? ,
question 2 also i have a sip spacer and it comes with an air filter spacer too? why ?

hi guys , so now i have a new question i am thinking of a reinforced banded etc clutch , so ive just checked the primarys and i was surprised to find that the cosa 200 runs 21 - 68 standard , so next question do i keep this or will i be able to go up to 22 /68 with standard gearing with the build ??your thoughts please gentlemen

my theory was to extend the gears slightly with the 5 speed an buy using the 125 primarys it gave me a little on top end too but be on the power all the time in each gear , it didnt work !
i am thinking of the 4 speed standard route with the 4th now to be honest

Hi Guys im looking for a little advice as this bike has never run to my satisfaction , its a HB 200 casings piston barrel crank etc all done by harry whist i was there so done well , 26 mm carb i used all harrys timing and carb advice and a BGM big Bore , i built it with 21/ 68 primarys as im a fatty with the mecure 5 speed box which i had cryogenically strengthened , (yes i know they are famous for going boom) it pulls well 1,2,3 4th is sh*t i wanted it on the power all the time and i worked out with this set up it was just slightly ratioed over standard 200 , But this wasnt great so i put a 22 clutch in it which is slightly better but 4th is sh*t still, im thinking of stripping it and putting standard 200 primarys back in but id appreciate any comments

yeah i was thinking 55/100 pilot, 160 AC, BE3 and a 135 main but i think your right to go bigger first and keep checking the plug , , do you know about the exhaust mod ?

Ive been with Carol Nash for 8 yrs always wondered how good they were , ive had 8 scoots insured with them for 280 Fully comp , i bought a GTS 300 at 3pm that had been standing for 9 months and drove it home , it went on fire at 3.45pm while i was riding it LOL they paid me out in 3 weeks no questions asked , all the documents were under the seat and they still paid out before i gave copys , so i stayed with them this year !

ill get the pics up asap i got drunk instead tonight , Its the new Pinasco Super Sport 225 with the recessed 8 bolt head, for sure , the casings were taken back about 9mm backwards and 4mm toward the front and squared and fettled as far as i could see , ( the guy who did them knew the degrees etc ) the spigot/casing was matched exactly and checked with the gaskets etc , the carb box and casing were matched to the new DRT carb Si 24/24 which has all the mods done already , im glad you dont think ill need the shorter fourth as this was my opinion too ,
dose anyone have an idea of a good start for the main jet , also as i said the kit says to use the IT 21 degree mark if anyone has any other opinions id love to hear ! thx

Hi Guys im after abit of advice as im just about to build my engine , Ive got the new Pinasco 225 with the Pinacso 60mm Crank /DRT 24/24
Sip were rubbish when i rang and ask for the full compatible set up so i ordered a packer , but i dont know if i need it well not yet ? also would you know a ball park for a starter mainjet i want to run a Sip 2 and I am adamant it will pull standard gearing though sum are recommending a short 4th , but im not convinced , the casings are already matched by a good tuner i trust ,and he did some work extending the and matching for the inlet and carb box etc, , i guess im after your perfect set up advice on this set up , Pinasco are saying 21 degrees for the timing and it has the new recessed head , thanks in advance! Gillie
Ill add photos of the Kit, Crank and casings over the weekend , thanks
