Wow, if that came off that good your taper may not be the best or it wasn’t tightened enough originally. It should be a very distinctive pop when the taper is pulled apart and you should need tools not just by hand.

I have the exact same problem with my vision at the moment, wondering if you know where I would get the crankshaft because I am having trouble finding the correct one. Great video though, it will really help when I get around to doing mine

Next time, put the crank and bearings in the freezer for a while, or in a cooler on some dry ice, or spray them with a can of air duster held upside-down, then heat the case halves where the bearing goes with a heat gun, then it should just drop in. The contraction of the cold part and expansion of the heated part should give a large enough size difference to just drop right in, once everything is room temperature again, you should have a nice tight press fit. This works with wheels and all the other bearings too. Pounding on bearings without a proper bearing driver can damage them as well. Just removing my old wheel bearings wrecks them, as I need to use a blind hole pulling tool to get them out. Otherwise, good job, very resourceful!

Hi mate, are the steering ball bearings 5mm each? Also how many roughly did you fit in top and bottom. Thanks

i have one, where did you get the fixings and what paints do you use?

any issues with the airmext?

Woooooooooooooooow nice

Leave the engine cover off looks loads better and will cool down quicker with it off

Men don't need new tools. Keep your shovel sharp.

Looks amazing! Great job! it really came together.

Fantastic job. Enjoy. Would you be against white tyre writing? Without whitewalls I feel tyre writing would just add a little extra.

Bmx build looks really nice . Nice work 😊

It turned out really nice, great job! Now go and enjoy it.

looking good! 👍👍

Love it!!! Just got my 1985 vision!! Can’t wait to start getting done. I have started stripping it. When you put the front end /forks back together, did you use caged bearing or single bearings?

Good work. If either of those baskets need a home please let me know.

nice

Hi what is the Japanese auction site address? Cheers

Hi where did you purchase the exhaust from? Good luck with the build.

You sound like youre from the west country? Id love to see this bike about! 🫡

Great stuff, really coming together, definitely prefer the wheel covers. I have some black ones I was going to do a bbs style graphic for a jog build I’ve got. The smoked indicators were standard for Japanese market along with the smoked tail light. You should be able to grab both from the yahoo auctions. Pretty sure I still have a nos fitting kit for a basket - nut/spacer/studs all in one, let me know if it’s of any use, happy to donate to your project 👍

You’re so lucky to have access to the yahoo auction. I’m currently building a white/pink Af09. I’m also building the only imported Dio Baja in the 🇬🇧. Keep up the good work.

If you haven’t seen it yet, take a sharpie and place a line on the variator face. What is left after riding is an indicator of how high the belt rides up the variator face. Also, look at office supply store for a garbage can, many have a very similar mesh used on them.

I will be honest. I don't dislike them, nor do I think they improve the bike either. But it's your build and your taste, so I hope you enjoy them. Love everything else about the build. It's cool AF

You need l plates on a cbt car license or not

man I love it!! such a great looking scoot! I wish many of those parts weren't so rare here in the US.. where'd you find the belly pan??

Can you make one for x type jaguar plz 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏

good day! if you don't mind, can i know what's the circumference grip of that wheel? thanks!

Oh, if you do go with the older logo, extend the green lines, That's how they did it on actual livery on the cars. You can search google images for "7up racing livery" to see what I mean! there's a lot that will show up to give you inspiration. most are on green cars, but some are on a white base.

All I want to say is, when choosing the logo for your livery, it would be best if you pick the one that was in use on the year your scooter was made (1986, right?) although I do like the late 80's logo, it's a very clean look. I don't think it would be a deal breaker if you use the later logo, and would look more like what you'd see on a racecar, which is what informed a lot of Gentsuki livery to begin with. It stands to reason that a Gentsuki build should be somewhat period correct, meaning the logos should match the approximate period of manufacture, or the span of time that model of scooter was in production (that body style ran from 1985-1989 if I'm not mistaken). If it's an older logo on the cooler box, that would be okay; as that's the logo that just happened to be on that cooler, I don't think it'd clash. Also, one last bit of advice from my college days; My design professor would always say, "Less is more, be sure to incorporate the white space into your design" Maybe not cluttered with logos, but sparing usage and proper placement on those mostly white panels will speak volumes! I'm sure it'll turn out great!

Stick to one design keep it simple and consistent 👍

So you are essentially going from a 6.5g roller to a 4.5g roller.3x13=39; 39/6=6.5 3x9=27 ;27/6=4.5. If you could find 4g and 5g rollers that would get you the same but with 6 rollers.

Have you got insta showing off your Honda ?

Looks and sounds mint, love it. Will look mint with the LEDs underneath. May I make a suggestion, consider painting out the exhaust/muffler hanger (and the gold weld) semigloss or flat black. It'll give the illusion of a 'floating' muffler set up. Keep the awesomenessness.

Not sure if you are running a stock variator but the jasil variator from racing planet got my ne50 to 40mph

The roller weights are very heavy for the engine size.. From personal experience I’d drop down to about 6gram rollers

It looks great, congrats! Is loud for a scooter I must say. You could glue some aluminium strips to the fan and put some LED light in there if there is room, but it may look too stupid.

Just an update for those that would like to do this for bc racing coilovers the part number is SN12O18OBLY from airmext

Just found you yesterday, binge watching this build.

Nice ped, but nothing to do with Bōsōzoku whatsoever!

You beauty, sounds spicy as, looking forward to seeing it blat down the road

A peugeot rapido comes with a fyel tap (i think). A rapido and a vision are the same beside the bodypanels. Google: benzinekraan peugeot rapido. Like the video's. Just got a old vision

Yeaaaaah Boooooiiiii !, sounds sweeet buddy

Well done lad 👍

like it

Do you need a squirrels tail look cool

Is the red air filter cover a similar size to spray paint lids? You could use the green cap

Didn’t you pull out 6 or 7 gram rollers? If you take the average of the 13 gram ones using 6 you should be pretty much where you started.

If you haven't painted the mat yet, don't do it. All the stones under your shoes will scratch the paint off fast and it will look rubbish I think. Regarding the graphics. Do as you said, to keep it simple. I won't look to busy, and less is always more. It's getting very close to the end, and look stunning! Keep up the good work

Super, I love this content, something that would help is posting the links of stuff you get, and also names in jp characters of the charms and all that
