Upgrades completed....pics of bike waiting my arrival at AROUND THE BLOCK ADVENTURE TOURS in Huanuco Peru..CLICK on picture to enlarge
The Ronco engine is a copy of the Honda CRF 230 engine used in the Honda XR 250 and is 18.76 hp@7500rpm....so Toby assures me that the power is comparable and says I can test it against the Honda when I arrive.......
hi how did this bike go on your trip ?look preaty good.was it new?thanks
ReplyDeleteYes it was new....did have the Engine built up to a 285cc but it failed at about 6000 k and the 1st partial rebuild failed in 1500 k as I let the oil run down....the 2nd rebuild which cost only 120.00 US in Ecuador was taking it back to a 250cc and it performed flawlessly for the last 3000 k of my trip and with as much power as it had as a 285cc....used full synthetic oil after 100 k break in period with 20/50 regular.
