Hello
So i know this isent the right forum for this, but i want as many off you 2-stoke nutters as possible to know what im up to
I sold both my 500 bikes =( But i had a plan... A Evil one...
Zabel makes Two stroke engines for sidecar mx racing that are 700cc single cylinder engines...
So i started looking for one and found it =) a 2004 four speed 700cc monster.
Now i started looking for a frame that had the drive sprocket on the right side (or the wrong=)
and stumbled across a Husaberg 550 2003 with a broken camchain. Four strokes.... Well i got a good deal on it. And now it wont have a pesky Fourstroker it will have a zabel =)
Ive alredy coverd some ground and the angine sits in the swing mount and the other mounts will be fabed shortly
But i have a question the spockets line up but are 2mm off sideways See below
Sprocket ---> |
C
H
A
I
N
Rear Sproket--->|
|-2MM-|
Can i live with this or will this be two much ?
Please give me input

OOhh :-D
Hey Joker,
I love it when a plan comes together!
I have a similar problem with my 13T counter rubbing my case's... Camm 22 had his countersprocket counter sunk and worked like a charm...
I'll look for his post and piccy. would this sound feasable? That's alot of torque pulling the chain off-center.
Chain is not cheap, and sprockets would also suffer.
Best of luck on the build & keep us up to date.. This sounds like a Very Cool Project.. I have only seen piccy's of the ATK.

2mm should be fine...but I'm just guessing. 2cm and I'd be worried.
See if you can't bring the front sprocket out 2mm.or move the motor over 2mm
post some pics.......sounds like a cool project.
:mrgreen:
bigbellybob:
r the cases the same as the old KTM's?
