Old Skool ts1

[Scooterlam]

Anyone ever ran a TS1 200 with a JL4 and 34mm Amal 58mm stroke standard rod.
Ive now fitted a Wosssner piston so am happy to let it rev with out the skirt parting company

Can't see why it wouldn't work.

JL4 on a TS1 would require 4.7 final drive.

is the JL4 not the race pipe of the JL bunch ??

[Scooterlam]

Yep,
I've got a micron on at the moment which is pretty much a jl3.
My rally bike is an Avanti with a Nk road @4.6 which is totally awesome.
Just looking to make a different ride.
Without a wossner I wouldnt trust the old asso to go above 7.5k without the skirt falling off.
From memory it's Gp 200 19 47 giving 4.8
I would possibly go standard go200 with a revvy pipe.

[bazza3004]

If using the jl4 i would use a ratio of around 4.9 to 5.2 to1 as the ts is a revy kit and the jl4 is a pipe to suit.

The NK road is a far better pipe than a JL 4 imo. Stronger made and more bottom end but revs about the same.

Is anyone using a JL3 with a TS1 ?
Gonna be my setup on S2 when built.. ;/)

What gearing & carb setup recommended for JL-3

[TS1-200]

Why not go the whole old School route and go RD400 rodded crank,Yamaha IT 175 piston, beautifully smooth motor.

[Scooterlam]

I have a crank with the Yamaha outboard rod. 18mm small end and now Rich Taylor does conversion bearing 18-16mm.

but to be honest with the light piston in there its pretty smooth as it is.
