Field of dreams Jinling,. Anyone near Lytham At Anne's who can do a collection?

[catsinthewelder]

We have a problem, turns out an engine mount was missing and now the casing has snapped.  Seen this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Jinling-250-quad-bike-parts/174030629612?hash=item288508aaec:g:ygYAAOSwpPBdc7Np not sure if it will be any help.  Ends this afternoon so could do with knowing soon ?

I've a trailer and don't mind doing the run but I am in Derbyshire

[Mally]

I can collect, presume it will all go in a 75 tourer with the seat folded?

Could only pick up this Sunday 2pm ish. Or next monday morning around 10am, but am a little flexible on time.

Would all end up at OL15,9ED.  not sure when my next trip Northampton way is, if at all. But could store for a while.

Will pm my number txt is best I'm mostly deaf.

 

[Mally]

Hang on. are we talking engines or the whole chassis caboodle?

[catsinthewelder]

Half the problem is that I have no idea what is included in the sale.  We could do with an engine and transmission as the bit that's snapped is part of both.

The other half of the problem is that we have no idea if it'll fit as we don't even know the engine size of this one.

Seller is trying to message but suffering from eBay rules

[Mally]

I have tools and hacksaw. 

I also have big trailer, but they won't let it on Tiffanys car park. I'm on a cheap night away again

Let me know what develops.

[UltraWomble]

 I works in Kirkham which is not far from Lytham, just in case Mally is struggling & I can has people carrier van type thing

 

[catsinthewelder]

Thanks guys ?

Just trying to work if the bits for sale will repair the damage.  Have managed to get around eBay now ?

Highly recommended mode of transportation is french. The of estate is french and I'm biased!

[bub2006]

Cats,where is it you live?

[catsinthewelder]

I live in Ludlow but this is heading to the field of dreams in Buckinghamshire ?

[Mally]

I see it got relisted fast.

He obviously has you down as a timewaster

[bub2006]

Mmmm. Well anything is a possibility. If ultrawomble collects it then the chain can be started obviously if ultrawomble is ok with that. 

[UltraWomble]

Im OK - just message me and let me know.

[catsinthewelder]

We didn't bid but he's got back to us now for an offline sale.  It won't be a direct fit as they are manual and Chris' is an auto.  Time to try welding ?

[Andyrew]

This is why we can't have nice things.

Bloody hooligans!

**shakes fist**

[catsinthewelder]

Aye, I was waiting for your help to get the engine out ?

[Mally]

I presume I'm out then?

After 9am Sunday you will only get me by phone.

[bub2006]

Mally what location are you? I mentioned about a chain starting for a bit of a relay service. I was under the impression you where in the dales.

My internet skills know no* bounds,  I'm on.

You are half right bub, it's near Roch dale I live.

At present full of beer in Blackpool.

I could still collect Monday morning, but it's looking unlikely to be required.

[bub2006]

AHH ok fair enough. Well Mr welder knows he's got a few folk willing to help at least. I'm in Derbyshire/notts borders.

[Andyrew]

Found this on eBay.  Being sold by the guy who I believe sold the jinling in the first place. 

Wonder if hes got the bolt he didn't fit aswell. 

[catsinthewelder]

That's certainly an interesting development Andy

Is it definitely the right bit as I thought this one was 200cc?

If it is then it could present a change of plans.  I'll ask the welder to try not to weld it to the other half of the box ?

I'd guess the head would be the only difference in the supposed c.c of the engine. 

Maybe a call to raj may confirm if this would fit. 

That fact that he sells a casting that in reality shouldn't go wrong suggests they do break.
