You mean left and right, yes but most problems with the forks are from front end crashes. If the front is bent then the left to right alignment will be out too. Have you got bent forks?

It's a system to obtain more power from your flywheel and stator, you can nearly double the power output for any given rated stator, for a 120watt stator I would expect around 210watts, this gives a lot more scope to power anything you may want to connect such as music systems ,sat nav or just loads of lights, you don't get the power dropping off at tick over so at night your lights stay the same just like a car. I will explain as I fit it to the scooter I'm doing up atm. Cheers and good luck

Hi again looking at the stator in your video it looks like a mb loom but you have added an extra yellow wire then both end up at regulator AC non battery system yes ? Now where you soldered yellow wire on lighting coil you mention and said on earth position i take it there is no earth wire there or you had removed it prior to the conversion or we get bad short. Just checking as got a bit confused. Great videos old school years of experience On that note happy new year and keep up the videos. Terry

@terryfaulkes8339 you cut the earth wire that is the coil wire that is tagged onto the metal part of the stator, add a yellow to this, then the two yellows connect on to the rectifier one on each ac point, you then have two other wires from the rectifier, one is ground and the other feeds through to the battery and make sure there's a fuse in line. I fit one on the rectifier and one on the positive from the battery, this then is connected to what ever switch you choose and links the ac and dc ,this turns your lighting to dc and you will need a dc horn , if 12volt bulbs are fitted these are ok.so if you don't have your engine running the horn and lights will work as you connect them up, on my p2 the ignition switch only does ignition the switches on the handlebars work the lights,horn and indicators with no key, on my series2 the ignition works my ignition and switches on the sip speedo as this needs a switched power on and off to power it on , if left on the battery would drain. You will have enough power when the engine is running to charge the battery and run anything you want

I run this system on my series 2 and my p200, I have videos on these

@@roymichaeldeanable I do as a rule, this Lambretta was a discarded restoration so I got bits in bags and missing parts, there's mostly black plastics that should be grey and a lot of money was spent to put the scooter back on the road, I've started to order the bits I need so there's a few vlogs when they arrive.

@@Zacky12345 worth it

I wondered who I passed my germs onto as feeling a bit better now, great tool well worth the money, happy NY ,hope you get better soon mate all the best

Happy new year, any good mild paste for car valve grinding paste is good,

@m1scooterlife259 ,thanks for the reply Roy, is there any reason why youv went with 17 ,I haven't done mine timeing yet but am seeing so many different timeings am getting confused and I haven't had any shandys yet lol ,my set up is all tv175 ,22mil dellorto carburettor and series 2 big bore series 3 air box and scoop as I live in italy am thinking cause of the very high heat 😀 wot would ya recommend ,cheers

@modslil I go 18 or 17 before tdc as it seems to work for me on standard and mild tuned engines with out rubbish fuel we have now

@m1scooterlife259 thanks, for the reply, looking forward to rest of the LI videos ,wot colour have ya in mind, and will it be for sale 😀

I'm thinking VW bay leaf green and yes it's going to be on sale when it's done. I think it will look like a classic scooter colour and suit the look I'm going for

@@roymichaeldeanable thanks ,Happy New year to you too

@@JosephHackett-wz1fl it's done , will need to start it up in a bit

I still wonder what the hell was all the play about, just a shim and it's now ok

I always say ,"they can't say they never saw you if you blind them". Truth is they never look, do they

Thanks Sid🍺🍺🍺

What do you need to know?

Very dangerous this man flu can be, thanks I will be fine in a bit

Thanks and happy new year to you and yours too🍺

From start to finish all on the way

It's the only way to learn, when I started scootering , all of us knew nothing about them at all, it's a great pastime to have, lots of different things that can be done.

Thanks for reply M1 scooter life.....once I’ve made up my mind Bout the engine build.....I may have a few Questions for ya😉

Thank you, it makes sitting in the cold shed worthwhile

@@JosephHackett-wz1fl thank you

@@dougiebrown9318 thanks, happy Christmas to you and yours too, the engine I'm doing was supposed to be worked on by a shop, so not sure what went on with it, I'm looking a led lights front and back on it too.

@@SquiddysAquaticts thanks mate, engine out is always the best way, take your time, just getting the parts you need can be hit and miss, most clubs have expert's that help out with tools and advice, hope you have fun with you scooter, every one started somewhere, it's never been a better time to restore a scooter. Merry Christmas to you and yours , ask away that's what we are here for 😉

Thanks again Paul

thanks Paul

@@JosephHackett-wz1fl most of the tools are on ebay or direct on scooter dealers sites, sorry I didn't get back to you earlier, I was at work. Good luck

@@JosephHackett-wz1fl good luck

@@terryfaulkes8339 the seal fitted to the bearing would only be needed on the crank side as the gearbox oil is used to lubricate the bearing and you would only need the seal in any case if you can't seal the drive side from leaking, usually only on sil casings. The plate ,seal and halite washer should seal the bearing off. I should of bought or obtained a plate to heat the mag side up by now. Cheers

Again sometimes it could be a made up problem, you would think these engines would fall apart as soon as you use them ,instead of lasting for years and years

I hope so, not found an original one for years that's usable and threads are good, 60 year old parts

Thanks mate

Thanks again mate

It's American Trailtech vapour, the headset top was from Vietnam and is solid ali, thanks for your input, its appreciated 👍

@@sidwallace6053 thanks my friend

Thanks it's hopefully to inspire some more into doing the work themselves.

Thank you

@@Zacky12345 if in good condition and original to the engine you usually don't have issues, nowdays it's a bit hit and miss 😉

@@m1scooterlife259 original broke, must have done it right😂

It survived so it must of been right at some point😉

Thanks Paul, the video was a bit hit and miss as I had a lot of fettling on the kickstart mechanism to adjust to fit old sil ones just fitted.

Thank you, was a lot more work than I was expecting. But its just take your time and it will be good.

@@mikego18753 thank you more soon

It works mate, a lot cheaper than evaporust, but either work great

Just waiting for all the parts to come, then it's rebuild time.

@@m1scooterlife259 to which I’m looking forward to mate
