Re: Build tread (kind of)

I found the pictures of the standard air box used in a Triking. I have no idea who's car it is I'm afraid. The picture was very useful as it helped me I decide against this installation as it uses so much valuable space the way I want to use it. Funny, those pictures did the same for me. (No offenc...

Re: Build tread (kind of)

Hi Berglind, The work / life / Triking balance is always difficult - we just need 30 hour days. With a 2004 bike it is difficult to know weather it had a lambda probe or not - they were introduced around that time, but different countries got them at different times. If you look at the label on the...

Re: Build tread (kind of)

Hi Berglind, Welcome to the club. To begin with was your girlfriend and two cats guarding against Bears or Moto Guzzi owners? Assume two cats are not Tigers. Thank you!

Re: Build tread (kind of)

I have no idea why two pictures are turned around but here comes some more. I have started ordering some things from around the internet and found a nice steering wheel. 20200426-211514_f.jpg Got one of the riveted ones from a similar supplier to the old saab but that had too much of a look of plywo...

Re: Thinking about buying a 1100 cc engine.

Thanks for the advices Ivan and Tony!

Re: Thinking about buying a 1100 cc engine.

The used bikes here in sweden are usually €3-5000 so even if i can sell of a lot of the parts it will still be more expensive. There are a lot of engines on the american ebay but shipping a engine across half the wold seems a bit excessive. I completley understand the advantage of being able to test...
