Matchless Robin woes

Post by tonyd »

Its been awhile since I posted anything on the forum. On the last occasion I was bemoaning the demise of my Dorsett Diesel due to a broken con rod and extra crankcase ventilation. Co-incidentally there were two DY42 Fuji Robin engines for sale but Chicago was a bit too far to go! I thought I got it cracked when I saw and bought a DY42 engine on E-bay. Two days of stripping both engines to exchange parts and I find I didn't buy a DY42 after all so much misery here!
Does anyone has such an engine so I can get my lovely bike back on the road. New engines seem to be a lotta lotta money.
Please e-mail tonydymott@hotmail.com and I will check the forum too.

Thanks all
Tony
