Fox Thunderbolt 125

[Rooster63]

Apart and Cleaned. Same with the Spokes and Nipples. Wasn't going for the PERFECT look, as MOST of the rest of the Bike isn't.

 

[Rooster63]

Tank pretty much cleaned-up. Was basically a New Tank. Inside looks New.

 

[Rooster63]

Finally found some Shoes that fit. Was a fun hunt. NOT! Were only slightly used. Little Sand Paper, and came-out like New. Fit PERFECTLY. Left-one had been cleaned-up when I took the Pic.

 

[Rooster63]

New Foot Peg Covers. Rupp Style but, oh well.

 

[Rooster63]

New Petcock.

 

[Rooster63]

Foot Peg Covers, installed. Used no Lube. Fit VERY Nicely. Went on TIGHT. They won't come off.

 

[Rooster63]

New Sprocket showed-up. The Old one weighed a Ton. New one is light as a Feather.

 

[Rooster63]

It Fit, thankfully.

 

[Rooster63]

WAS gonna use this Idler contraption but, I ended-up not using it. Just wasn't gonna work for me.

 

[Rooster63]

Got the correct Hardware for the Throttle Control.

 

[Rooster63]

Beginning of the Engine Assembly.

 

[Rooster63]

I'll continue in the Morning, as the Bike is basically DONE. Hope you enjoyed the Updates. Very nice to be able to Post Pics again. Talk to you after some Snooze Time. WOW.....4am!! You wouldn't haven't believed my Weekend.

 

[Rooster63]

Wouldn't HAVE believed, I meant to say. lol. Tired.

Looks really good!
Where did you get the rear sprocket? also how many teeth?
I use those Rupp footpeg covers on nearly everything now. For $12 shipped, they are awesome.

Yeah, that's why I went with em. High Quality, too. The originals are $30, or more. Screw that!

I had the Sprocket made by Azusa. Found it impossible to find one with the Dimensions that the Original had/has. Had to ship them that Heavy Sprocket, so that they could build it to exact Measurements.

Thanks for the compliment. It's been a fun/tedious Project.

 

[Rooster63]

Oh yeah.....72 Teeth.

 

[Rooster63]

New Governor Lever and Link. I ended-up going with a different one but......

 

[Rooster63]

Throttle Linkage Installation.

 

[Rooster63]

Ignition Box Installation. I set the Timing and Point Gap, by Eye. I don't recommend it. I hope that it runs. I couldn't get a Spark before Disassembly, Cleaning, Sanding Point Contacts, and installing a New Condenser. NOW, I have a Very Nice Spark.

 

[Rooster63]

Notice anything missing before Flywheel Installation?
