Yup, im putting a water cooled c1 engine in my x1.
im got the stock x1 motor mounts off, and now im just trying to fit and make
some new mounts for the w/c engine..
i have the banshee radiator,19mm rep carb, and i still need the c1 exhaust and Woodruff key.(so if i have those parts plz pm me)
i got the rear sprocket mounted on the x1 rear wheel..
needed to make some new holes but it fits nicely..
ill post some pictures up of what i got so far.. just want to put the rear wheel on and make it rolling.
so plz if anyone has any questions or advice, help, plz post on here!
(again, if u have the exhaust and Woodruff key plz pm me thanx)

Nice project, mish. You'll have plenty of room to fit that motor. Remember you'll need a large rear sprocket as the X1 wheel is larger in diameter than a PB. It makes your gearing a lot taller.
Post up some pics.
Cheers,

I have seen a 40cc c1 with 8.5 hp.
That would be cool.

its okay..
my bro is changing his mind right now lol..
he wants once performance x1, A/C
and then he wants the W/C x1..
lol but hes making the a/c one first
cuz the frame i was going to put the w/c engine on
is missing the wheels and rear shock lol..
so once we get those, we should be good lol..
how about ur bike? have any pictures of what u have
done so far?thumbsup2
also ill post some pictures up of the frame..
i think im going to just start finish prepping it for paint and then weld the brackets on there..
and if anyone has a c1 bike..
can u pls post some pictures of how ur motor mounts are? so i have something to work with?
thanx

The X1.25 is not going anywhere at the moment. I can't get any time to spend in the workshop on my own projects as I'm too busy doing work for others.
It looks like I may be getting an X18 at last so at least I'll have something rideable.

It's looking very likely I'll have one within a couple of weeks. So I'll start a "Down Under Midbike" thread. I'll even be keeping our showbike guys happy as I have an idea for some CF mufflers that should look really cool.
Of course I'll be modding the X18 thumbsup2. I haven't been idle and there is a collection of parts that has been growing these past few months.
