Honda Super Chaly thread (Chaly restoration/modification)

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Yep, that was a good read start to end. :thumb: I wish I was as mechanically inclined as Akira. It looked like good fun.

Don't want to make you uncomfortable Akira, but you've inspired me. Bought a Daelim today in need of an overhaul, once I've made my workbench this will be the next project. Strip down, spray and lacquer, rebuild.

Looks like fun Stroppy, always good to see people getting into projects :thumb:

Re: old bike, hard for me to tell, but the body somewhat resembles the classic Honda Dream but the motor tells me 2 stroke. Not sure. Actually, I'm going to say it's an old Benly 150 with CD90 front suspension fitted to it.





UDPATE ON THE BIKE:

After the first tank of fuel, I've manage to snap the rear retaining ring off. One the way home on a WOT "run", the retaining ring gave way and the drive gear came off. I purchased a new retaining clip and that one has now given way too. In other words, the Chaly wasn't meant for this much power, so I keep breaking it.

I'll update when/if I figure a solution to fix this.
