H50

[Skipp]

So I got a h50 off capguncowboy(thanks Andy) nothing wrong with it but being dirty..also it’s a lighted cast iron sleeve engine....so I wanted to try my hand at this one...couldn’t find any fancy billet parts to put inside so went with all new stock parts....new stock piston .010 over rings and cut them down....new rod all new seals and a header supplied by OND(thanks eric) and a 22mm mikuni carb...I have two intakes a straight one from eric and I purchased a right hand angled off 125cccrazy(thanks Randi) not sure which one will fit the place I’m going to stick this one so I wanted both to be safe....i honed the block with a 400 grit flex hone....and cleaned up everything so this weekend will be assemble time....more to follow...

I like your article I have one of these too and been wanting to open it up.
I got the ugly electric start shroud.
See if I can find a regular shroud and build it nice.... H50..

[Skipp]

Assembled and waiting for air filter and time to set up the test bench for a start up....more to follow....

skip ,without a billet rod just try to to keep it under 5000 rpm's and maybe just quick burst up to 5000 also. stock rods will break.

I see you got one of them nice engine stands...

 

[Skipp]

That stand sure does make it easier on me...I like to walk around them a lot....usually scratching my head?!?

Nice motor! You can take a rag with carb cleaner on it to remove the paint from the plug wire and it will make it look almost new.
