    As I say I'm no mechanic with no training so this is just what I have learnt!
    Correct me if i'm wrong this is a learning experience for me too!
    NOTE!!!
    I know its not the RPM pick up, Its the Trigger coil, That the CDI uses to tell when to tell the ignition coil to fire the spark plug....I think lol!

      spicy110 "suck, squeeze, bang, blow". remeber this with your Chinese motorcycle youll have it in bits more than you have it on the road mate lol also your head residue looks choclatey , its fine , sooty and stuff is a problem , colour of the mixture on the plug and head and depostits can tell you a LOT :) sounds like aminor problem but it can cause melted plugs , overheating and even warp the head if the mix is wrong and you keep on riding hot , depends witch way its leaning , rich or lean

    Thanks mate that helped a lot. I'm going to be picking up a WR450f and converting it too a sumo, and really wanted to understand exactly how an engine works. Still going to do some more research but you've given me a good base idea. I want to pick up and old bike engine and dissemble it and get hands on to fully get my head around it. Cheers!

  • @surferhorse9

    nice! I will soon begin to learn motorcycle mechanics and hopefully become a mechanic and designer. Your videos teach a lot about how motorcycles work. I don't know anything about mechanics, honestly,(I'm a design student) but with these videos I'll have a better understanding of everything for when I begin sort of "studying" mechanics. Thank you, greetings from Mexico(soon Canada).

    My first bike after passing my test was an RD400. Blew it up, (obviously), knowing absolutely nothing, just armed with a Haynes manual and decent tool kit, stripped it down on my bedroom floor. Learned so much about how an engine works and goes together. If you can (ignore the complaints of your mum/girlfriend/wife) lay a sheet down and in a clean dry enviroment, even a large, "complicated" engine is manageable. Just be methodical and these days, take digital photos of each stage. There's no great mystery. (plus, if you're a bit of a nerd, its a better passtime than train spotting)

    Awesome little quick how-to spicy!
    .
    That thing you didn't know the name of that happened to the piston is blow-by, some amount is always expected, especially with forced induction where you have high effective compression ratios and loose fitting rings to deal with the heat, though excessive blow-by is obviously a problem.
    .
    The other thing in the left cover is the pick-up for the CDI box - ignition timing. Not sure if your bike has TCI or CDI but either way needs reference for spark timing.

    Good job, very straight forward. The difference between a car engine and a bike engine is very small, especially the transmission. I think it's mad how thick a bike clutch is though, only ever seen clutches that chunky on very high performance vehicles, is it because a bike clutch is always kind of engaged?

I wanted to build a cross kart and I need to use a motorcycle engine that's chain driven but I know nothing about these engines and I was confused if the trans was attached or not to the engine itself.
