Thanks. Good information. That explains, why I saw pics of modified JAWA 559s racing on New Zealand tracks. It was hard to believe that they had been exported to NZ, even.
I had tried the PB bush for the wrist pin before, unfortunately the machinery I have access to wasn't able to bore out the wrist pin bore true like yours, so ended up abandoning it, but watching your video gave me some new ideas on how to achieve that in a round about way. Thank you for staying on it.
Do you think so? I think the „rubbing marks“ are due to incorrect profiling during the machining step which gives the piston its curve. The setting of the machine used for it most likely was not right.
Ohh man. Well, great work, but I don't know if I would reuse said piston. It doesn't matter how well the repair is made, once broke, the structural integrity is changed forever. Thanks for sharing.
The wear marks on the Jawa 559 casings that your talking about is cause by the drain bolt on the carb its is quite a common occurrence on multiple different branded 2 strokes with a similar design it happens due to vibration
@@Q.L.Engineering because of the cover nobody noticed, that the pump fell off. Here is talk about it www.jawamania.info/poradna/detail.aspx?questionid=68794
Thanks. That’s interesting and probably the truth. Never seen such a pump though and how and where it was fit to the engine. Must have been very small…
Hello, I have the same model JAWA as you and the engine you made impressed me with its performance and sound. Do you sell the engine you made and how much do you want for the engine?
hello, great job again did you consider to use variable ignition? I mean when moment of ignition depends on r/min I have no idea how much it improves 2 stroke engine performance, but for 4 stroke engine it is esential.
@@Q.L.Engineering I have tried: IMF soft - ignition I have done only one short test with JAWA 350 You cen see old video on my chanell there was no improvement, but engine was original with small revs range. And ofcourse, more effort would be necessary to understand all context,........ With 4 stroke engine there was big progress Perhaps this is reason why old 4 stroke motorcycles as PRAGA BD 500 have extra lever on handlebar to adjust ignition manualy during engine run my ignition is free now if you wold like to test it I can land it to you.
Wouldn’t work without a cooling tool for the bushings. Bushings heat up too fast, or required temperature delta is pretty high. Didn’t want any risk for the piston.
I love that you made that old fart running like a super star! I am in a little bit of a similar shoes without the machinery in my single garage. I saved an old CZ 250 twin for modifying purpose, but guess, well you don't have to guess you know, because short of financial issues and spare time having hard time getting off the bases. I collecting interesting parts and managed to get a 350 Jawa engine, 38 Mikuni, put an SV1000 front end into it, got a double swingarm to extend, strengthen and lift the rear of the bike up at least as much the front, but having issues to put myself into spend so much on the pipes, cylinder work, crank work, pointless ignition system, and so much more into it and then still stuck with a shitty clutch and transmission. I was gonna get a 500 Ninja or a crashed Aprilia 660 that come out cheaper with carbs. What do you think?
Getting an old 2-stroke JAWA fast and reliable is a difficult task. I’m doing it just for the technical sake of it Mate. And I want it looking like it looked 60-70 years ago. At least as close as possible. That’s my spare time profession. Can’t recommend the right path for you.
@@Q.L.Engineering My old 350ts and tramp while not fast are reliable as they are factory stock. Good luck with yours though and good fun at the traffic lights.
Is that a modified cylinder with bolt on reed block or a later development from factory? I don't think I've ever worked on a JAWA, CZ or MZ that didn't have rumbling main bearings. We used to change mains on MZ at first service (1970's~80's, ~500 miles) Personally, I would have bored/reamed piston and fitted 'top hat' thin wall bronze bushings almost exactly like you did. (I did train as precision machinist before returning to motorcycle dealer servicing) That's very nice micron reading small bore gauge.
Hi Sigfried . I see youre using Motul 7100 10w-40 in the gearbox.. i use in my 559 80w-90 transmission oil but my jawa is stock. Could i use same oil as you without damaging something ?

On a pressed pin you have to rely on the conrod small end bearing, as the pin will most likely remain without movement even if the piston is hot and the bore wider. On an interference fit the pin will form a second (pair) of bearing with a thin layer of oil in between pin and piston bore. This helps “unloading” the needle bearing should it see e.g. harsh operation. I often modify old pistons to give them an interference fit by honing. Also, it facilitates assembly.
Hey, im doing a JAWA 350 638 build myself, what are your thoughts about putting on RD350 carbs from Yamaha on the engine, also maybe fiting some reed valves too? Also, when I was disasembling my engine, the piston pin was very tightly in the piston, I had to punch it out, is that normal or is that bad?
Old pistons have press fit pins. This is normal, but today any performance piston I know comes with an interference fit. Converting the JAWA into reed valve intake makes a good difference for mid and low end performance. Top end may also benefit from larger carbs.
@@Q.L.Engineering I see, and well... Could there be a plausible way of filling the reed valves from the same RD350 engine, onto the Jawa engine, by not machining the cylinders to specificaly fit them, but rather to make an adapter that would bolt onto the existing screws on the cylinders? Im just getting into 2 stroke basics so I dont know if lenghthening the intake manifold would affect prefformance. Also didnt mention, but amazing 250 build!
The extended length will have no effect you can feel on your engine. You may want to increasing exhaust and transfer time and getting windows slightly wider without changing transfer angles too much. There are several good books on this. Better get one first.
Возможно было бы проще изготовить ремонтный палец увеличенного диаметра, и под него расхонинговать отверстия в поршне и в верхней головке шатуна. Подшипник при этом остаётся прежним.
You are right, but I didn’t want to strip the crankshaft for proper machining of small end. And getting the new pin 100% right without any risk (hardening…) is not a given.
Sorry to say that will take more time. Maybe next year? God knows. Unlike other people here on the platform I may make a video when I have good reason to do so. 65%.
I’m not planning anything like this. Do you think it makes sense? Most likely nobody would be willing to pay for the work. This is a JAWA or other old low cost vintage work horses not a dentists or lawyers Harley where 6000 or 8000 bugs don’t make a noticeable difference.
There isn’t much special mate. Mainly this is all normal tool makers equipment. Often is pretty old and used stuff in good condition. Just bought second hand. Lathe and milling machine are average level quality asian made.
Or even bond too… 😉 a certain level of irony is tolerable, hopefully. If I would take those technical things too serious, I shouldn’t be doing it any longer.

I think video cutting technology allowed me to wipe it off. Otherwise I‘m using 50 / 50 low flash point and high flash point oil, so there isn‘t that much visible oil. The low flash point one seems to disappear quickly indeed.

1:13 "let's check for anything obviously wrong" removes cylinder head...yes but then removes barrel without first checking piston slap in cylinder? I guess you knew what you were going to find perhaps... or knew you were going to be able to measure piston/rings/bore accurately with gear. Bush mechanic me (not having much in the way of measuring gear) would always wiggle the piston head in the bore and scratch my head first, before taking off the barrel. I'm not trying to suggest your solution is wrong.... you're far more skilled than I have ever been..... but I'd be worried that if the brass bush turned a bit in the journal, the lubrication hole would block and things might get nasty in the top end. If I had a time machine, and video'd my first exploration of top end internals, and repair, of an old bsa 250 that I'd seized about 4 times trying to get home up a long hill (a longgg time ago).... I think folks would have been horrified by my use of hammer, chisel, hacksaw and file.... removing a broken ring and cleaning out the ring slot/lands sufficiently to fit a new ring in. The poor old beast ran for a fair while after that, until I upgraded to an early 60s C92 honda benly.
Thank for your detailed words. I’m not quite sure what your recommendation is as to what could have been done better. Get a feel for the piston / cylinder clearance? That doesn’t help me much. I subsequently measured as always and found it satisfactory.

Are you sure? I really don’t get it. The drain cap on the stock Jikov is ~10 mm above the casing.
Those marks on castings are probably made by air pump which fell off its holder. Every Jawa 559 has it.
For that, the look and position is too similar on all the casings. And normally, the carb was covered.

Measurement stickers for temperature. Stuff one can buy.
How did you convert the 559 engine to have a separate lever for starting and shifting?
That’s a rather easy thing to do. You need corresponding Perak or 579 parts.
The wall thickness of the bushing seems very thin, I would choice a bigger diameter piston pin, but with a larger crank rod eye, who nows.....
Right, but try and get a good oversize wrist pin, or make one. Also not an easy task.

On my untouched jawa the piston pin is tightly pressed in the piston. What is the difference when its loose or tightly fit?
On a pressed pin you have to rely on the conrod small end bearing, as the pin will most likely remain without movement even if the piston is hot and the bore wider.

I think that the wear is made from some tools due to the main jet position in the original carburetor.
