Lambretta, BGM RT195 fitting. TV175 rebuild part 7 

Base gaskets that come with kit are for using 58/107 crank 😉but since ur using a 60/110 then the 3mm base is used but you already know that 😆

Great vid rob, love how you still say TV hundred & seventy five :-) can't wait for the next installment. cheers m8

Great video as always Sir Rob, perfect timing for me, as you know! Keep Rocking Steady ! :D

Great video and series .. thank you

Just the job as usual Cheers!

Hi in my younger day !I was very Much involve with Vespa And Lambretta SS and ,I would like to purchase one

Great vid Rob . As I’m a bit of a dummy , missed why you used the solder ? Cheers. Alan

Hi Rob I need your great advice on choosing a new exhaust for SX 200/68 I have put a new BGM 225 kit in with a 30 mm Dellorto carb it’s going lovely apart from the very loud pipe which is a Scootopia Clubman no to old ,I want to stick to a clubman for the retro look but need to tone it down a bit so thinking of a BGM 4 or a Sip sport ,Which would you recommend for a quieter sound and good performance ,thanks for the Vids Rob always a great watch

By that I saw using the Adjustable wrench with the moo

ROB The BGM RT 195 Kit requires a 200 inlet manifold. As part of your 175 re-build do you have a video showing this manifold and the setting up of a carb (the carb used)?

Hi great video. Question. Do you have a video on taking the race off the crankshaft before installing the new one? Heat and grind or? The 205 bearing in the mag housing I mean for my jet200? Also if you don’t have a crankshaft puller tool what to do? Can I use the original gear with some spacers?

I think thetwo sets of rings are in there as you need to change them very early on ?

ok dumb question; TV 175 2/3 used a longer 116mm conrod, am I correct in assuming that no longer matters because you're just matching your new 110mm crank to the RT 195 kit that is made for all small blocks? If you were trying to use the kit with the standard crank (don't worry I am not), I'm guessing that you have to shim the hell out of it for it to work. Last thought, since the TV 175 sort of falls in between a small block and a big block, is there anything else that needs special attention? I know it falls into the small block category but was the case inlet longer to accommodate the longer rod? Thanks, keep up the good work!

Hi Rob, can the piston be converted to reed, I've searched and can't find any info on this other than buying a new piston, great channel by the way, many thanks from another Rob

Thanks for the video, I’m using it to help me build the same spec 60/110 BGM crank with the 195 kit. Using a 3mm base packer. Have the same result that the transfer ports line up perfectly and the exhaust is .5mm below. BUT when I check with the BGM instructions it says : “The piston crown should sit 0.5 mm below the bottom of the transfer ports.* This gives the right transfer timing.” Are the instructions wrong? (I confirmed that they are the ones for the 60/110 crank). Thank you!

Hi Rob, did you polish the ports or fettle anything on the cylinder before fitting ? Cheers

I would like to drill the Cylinder Head to use 2 two Spark plug

you need a good engine stand mate , you can copy mine free of charge he he

What head gasket was used? 2mm 2.5mm ?

greetings rob....i've got a quick question if i have a 125 with a SH1/18 jet 99 starter 45 piot 60 and i put on a tv175 barrell with a 175 conversion piston..the ports all line exact with this stroke...squish is like 1-2mm and all is good...i cant get it to fire? is my timing off with same line up? or is my carb under jetted and not enough fuel to get busy... i know the answer...kit up to the 195😊but in the meantime i have to make more cheese so continue to jet up? OR buy bigger carb OR cut out some metal in my small manifold and jet up OR? tHANX rOB, YOUR VIDDY HAS MADE LAMBRETTERING MUCH MORE better than vespering anyday!
