JAVA-NO BATTERY

For the conversion of motorcycle into bezakkumulyatornyh I purchased: alternator 43.3701 (from motorcycles “Minsk” or “Sunrise”), two thyristor switch, CAT-1, the unit BKS-261.3764, inductive sensor and lamp and a sound signal of 12 V. you Can also make a 12 volt generator two generators Г427 from the old models of motorcycles: one to use as a base along with a section of the lighting (she wound a thick wire), and from another — only section of lighting. For this first generator need to remove three sections, wound with thinner wire (without touching the coil plug which is covered with a metal plate), and put instead of them the lighting coil removed from another generator. Then the two sections be connected in series. If the subsequent verification of the generator on the bike will determine that the voltage generated by the generator is not increased, but decreased, you need to reverse the connection of one of the sections on the opposite.

A QUARTER TON OF CARGO ON BOARD THE “JAVA”

In the photo: at the wheel — the author's son VitalyIs it possible? It would seem that it is hard to imagine this sleek high-speed motorcycle as a truck. However, it perfectly copes with the role of the heavies, thanks to the reliable and durable engine with good fins, as well as ample torque throughout the range of rotation of the crankshaft. I must say that this is my “Java-350/634” sidecar “Velorex-562” operated for ten years. Mileage was about 60 000 km With a full load the bike confidently overcame long distances and on motorways and on dirt roads. The roads and highly rugged terrain was not an obstacle for him. Trouble-free service of the motorcycle in these conditions is a sufficient proof that under normal conditions, in addition to three riders, it is capable of transporting significant cargo. But where to place it? The load capacity of the carriages is limited by the magnitude of 105 kg, to install additional trunk it did not make sense. The logical conclusion is to make a cargo trailer.

A few years ago I accidentally saw used for this purpose, benzopyrene production of the GDR, then had the idea to do the same, but running on gas. The result exceeded all expectations — and now gas-heated soldering iron is a decent place to set my tools. Exploitation it during body repairs, radiators, bits of copper cables with large cross sections confirmed the efficiency of the design. The main advantages before traditional “hammer” and a blowtorch are: the possibility of continuous soldering, the temperature setpoint, which is important when performing large volume of work, as well as the possibility of regulating the degree of heating.
