An update

I solved the battery box problem now, no pic sadly but I used a big bit of rubber and drilled thorugh it and mounted the battery box on top of it with some 100mm bolts, wasn´t fun drilling through that rubber...

But the current state of the bike looks like this
The complete exhaust system is now mounted, the foot pins has been cut of and re-welded on and repainted.
Also the back wheel was too much to the left so i had to move 9mm to the right... wasn´t much fun fixing those spokes again...

And to the current problems, I have no idea how the ignition needs to be positioned.
I know according to the fly wheel that it's meant to ignition at the second mark on it but this plate on the contactless ignition has two plates when it should ignite but when does it? At first contact or when it´s pointing too the middle of the plate?

And the second problem, the drive shaft is too long as it has a dnepr gearbox which apperently is a bit longer so I probably need to find a drive shaft from a dnepr. The current one is about 375mm long and is 25mm to long for the snap ring to be able too fit.


Also repainted the hand controls on the handlebar, the paint got a bit thick so the text isn't really that visible but it was in russian anyway ;)
