SWM

Would anyone know what the original handlebar rise would of been when these Speedies were sold new....just curious. cheers

Hi all in the SWM Data list at swm-moto.org the Jumbo 350 carb is listed as having a needle SX200. After asking at Dellorto there isn´t a needle SX200 listed. Can someone say what the right needle is ?

hello I am restoring a swm tl 320. anyone has the doc parts of tl swm 320? (Catalogo parti de recambi) Thank you

can anyone tell me if a swm kickstart is the same as a aprilia tx311m

I have dragged my bog standard Jumbo from the depths and have a clean slate to play with. It is totally stock and runs the case reeds. The footrests do not have a return spring and I cannot see how one is fitted. It is also fitted with SWM (Betor) 35mm forks, it is my understanding that the first bikes had 38mm. Were they changed at the factory during the last days? Overall the bike is in excellent condition so I assume they are standard factory fitment. What other modifications would you recommend? gearing, carb (26mm perhaps), exhaust system, ignition timing. Thanks for your help

Could somebody help me with the thread direction for the clutch side crank nut [more like a cylinder with a 1/2 inch square female]? Any tips on replacing the crankshaft seal would be also be most welcome?

Here is a video of my 1978 SWM TL320 Engine Rattle. Is it a problem as I have heard several at Trials that sounds the same or louder?

Hello, I would like to know if the rear shocks are suppose to be 14 inches long? Also, are they suppose to be mounted in the front mounting hole or the rear. There are two holes for mounting and my shocks which are 14 1/8 inches long are mounted in the rear position. Thanks, Scott

Hi All, Just been out for a spin on my TL 320 and when loading the bike up in second on decent banks there was a slight clunk - like a quieter version of the a chain jumping the sprocket. 1st was Ok and bike is shifting smoothly etc. I have had the clutch apart recently to change springs and was wondering if the clutch basket nut may have come loose. Would it have those symptoms if this was the case or could the dogs on the gears have worn slightly in second? Any help appreciated.

I am sure its on here and been discussed before, but could some one just remind me the weight and amount of oil per leg for a jumbo please. Thanks

My 350 Jumbo had a 15 tooth countershaft sprocket which looks gigantic. Does anyone know what the original set up was for front and rear? Also are there supposed to be spacers between the front sprocket guard and the engine cases? Thanks

I am in the process of rebuilding the engine on my 1982 320TL. Everything was going fine until I came to setting the ignition timing. I know that it should be between 2.6 and 2.8 BTDC but I can't rotate the stator plate enough to achieve this. Can someone help by taking me through the process for setting the ignition timing as I am probably making an elementary mistake! Cheers Chris

I have just bought a TL320 '82 with Rotax engine. From a copy of a US maintenance manual I understand that there should be a kind of external stop for the kick starter to avoid damage to the left side engine (clutch-) cover. I can't see any such mechanism on my SWM. Could anyone please describe it for me - if possible with a picture too?

Hi, has anybody got a readable wiring diagram for a TLNW 125 they can let me have a copy of ? Everything I've found so far is of low quality and unreadable. Thanks in advance, Phil

Hi All, Does anybody know the part no./brand or description etc to obtain points and condenser for my SWM TL 320? Cheers Reginald

hey all, I am trying to locate a side stand for an 1983 Jumbo, anyone know where I can access one? Thanks,

Where to get these bushings? Are those made of rubber? Mine are hard as a rock.

I recently acquired a 350 jumbo in very nice shape. It has been ridden quite a bit, so I took the top end apart. The piston and cylinder look amazingly good (I did measure with my gages and the cylinder is still within spec. for a cylinder of this size). But, the end ring gaps are about 20 -22 thou. I'm getting the piston coated with an abrasive powder coating product that they use in very high performance/horsepower engines. been doing this to all my bikes for 10 years and have had amazing results. So, does anyone know if OEM standard,1st or 2nd over piston rings are available? They would be an 82.0mm, 82.25mm or 82.50 mm... as needed, I'd file down to fit. From w…

[pic from MotoSWM] How many were made? Were they popular? How often do they turn up these days? So many questions...

Hi all I have 2 TL320´s that are both leaking oil from the kickstart shaft / gear change shaft. They both have had the seals changed and the Oring for the gear lever changed. Sometimes they drip a lot from the gear change shaft and sometimes a bit from the kick start shaft. Other days they don´t leak at all. If the bikes lean away fromthe shat´s they usually stay dry (shame that the side stand is on this side). Any tips welcome !
