SDI-ASY conversion

Thanks for that Dave, I'd rather get the info straight, particularly when wishful thinking threatens my marriage/bank balance/sanity. I've also heard from Andy at Syncrosport, who dispelled my belief that the ASY would be a 'straight in' fit, saying it would also require modification to the sump, engine mounts etc. Time for a rethink...start a new thread on Wartburg two stroke transplants?

Ah, another stroker fan

I've got MZ 2 and 4 stroke bikes and like the Wartburgs too, got no room for one tho.

Yea, the ASY is based on the same block as the ASV in my MK4 golf, it's a totally different casting so would require substantial modification of the mounts and sump (the JX/AFN sump has a bulge out the side) So I'd definitely forget that.

I'm glad I'm not the only person who pines for the days when MZs roamed the earth...I had to keep it a secret from my Brit bike owning peers, a bit like owning up to liking country music or experimental jazz....it takes all sorts

My 2-stroke is currently in bits, but this is my 500 - 4 stroke which still terrorises the A-roads every so often



I never got the urge for Brit bikes. Just oddball German bikes, lunar milage golf's and crusty old VW busses.
