Starter freewheel clutch advice

Postby RTango125 » Mon Jan 10, 2011 9:58 pm

Hi Guys,
new to this MZ world, just bought my mini BMW quality RT125 in Tango colour as a non starter.
Never seen these bikes before, but it's looks got me hooked......i'd like one of them :)
2003 but in better than expected condition, due to the parts and build quality.
it seems the starter clutch is slipping and the engine is only occasionally sparking/turning over.
I've not tried bump starting it.
The bike is going to get a full overhaul/strip/clean/polish and much needed tlc to bring it back to shining glory ...........
With a little help from my new friends here :-D

so my questions are
can the sprag freewheel thing be fixed/adjusted?
whats it like to do/time/any special tools required(got the pdf manual)
anyone got one for sale?

spannering/electrics/AC is my line of business on cars.....so advice can be returned

the Tango machine also needs a n/s/r indicator and front brake lever if anyone has one going.

what do you guys think of the heidenau factory fit tyres......rear one is on 2mm.....front 4mm and i'm not up on bike rubber to know whats good to buy/grip/wear etc

Thanks in advance :smt006
