hi im jai singh
from india
i have already introduced myself in the member introductions
my diesel bike is
Enfield 325 cc(78x88-greaves) diesel
4 speed gear box..and
4 clutch plates clutch
18 tooth spocket in the front and standard in the rear..
the bikes does a 75 kph on the enfield speedo and gives 50 kpl
pretty fun to drive but some more things are in plan..basically to make a setup which cruises at 100kph
does a trip high in the mountains like ladakh
is reliable and
of course economical as well
following are the mods in my mind:
upgrade the engine
the choices that are available in india are :-
greaves 395 (86x68)available in the piaggio three wheeler (euro 2 model)
greaves 436 (86x75)available in the piaggio three wheeler (euro 3 model)
(the external size and mouting are same as 325cc motor)
greaves 436 as claimed by piaggio gives better performance than greaves 395
upgrade the GB
the only choice is 5 speed GB conversion for which i have the gear box,
this is already done on my enfield 535 with a RH shifter
with the 5 speed GB the power loss will be minimum.
upgrade the clutch
clutch upgrade from 4 clutch plate to 5 clutch plate
already done on my enfiled 535 and i know that with a bigger diesel motor i need to address the slippage issues.
upgrade the front brakes
present setup runs a drum brakes of enfield
which are not that efficient
plan to to disc brakes..
If all of the above is achieved and the bike is running fine
then two more upgardes in line
A turbo charger for the engine- I HAVE NO CLUE ABOUT IT..
A oil cooler for the engine
piaggio in india have three wheeler running on LPG and the basic powerplat used is a greaves 395 cc (Euro 1) motor with mods to run the LPG this has a oil cooler fitted near the engine plate above the fly wheel
This is my exhaustive plan
please help me and give your valuable inputs for my build
Thanks..
newbie from india with big plans..
