Can some one tell me on the 72 Alpina the fill hole that's almost under carb what is that for? And on the right side of motor is that the gear oil side?? And what do I use for gear oil and is that fill hole that's under care is that for transmission? Thanks

We'll I got the bike running like a champ..

I think there might be smething missing from the twist handle cause ain't there suppose to be something in there to make it twist back foward

Ok I have owned dirt bikes threewheelers four wheelers my hole life, no I'm not taking off in too high of a gear, yes u can push bike with it in gear and clutch pulled in, no brakes r not locked. This is the first bultaco I have ever owned, somebody took it to the scrap yard one of my friends works at so I got it took it home got it firing, it took me about a month to figure out why it wasn't cranking up thanks to the help of someone on here I grounded it to where coil is and it fired up I cleaned carb anywsy in bout three days I had it idling reving up it runs like a champ until I put it in gear 1st gear let out on clutch just like I'm suppose to and it just boggs out and goes dead . How can it idle, and rev up so good then bog out and go dead when I just barely start to take off? Now I am having some trouble with throttle cable that might have some thing to do with it I feel like some how it is, maybe i don't have some thing just right with the throttle cable

Can some one please tell me why my alpina 250 will sit and idle and rev up good but soon as u put it in gear let out on clutch it just bogs out and goes dead? Thanks any suggestions please

Ok I took green wire grounded to coil bolt and it fired up! First time i ever heard it run... any suggestions what i need to do now? It fired up for a second with starting fluid and it sounds like it is reved up

Thank u so much for that I'm fixing to try that and c if anything changes

Can anybody tell me if my wiring might be the cause of not cranking up? Ok black, yellow, and green r coming out of motor. When I got this bike there was no switches on it at all, no kill switch no headlight switch and no wires to tail light. Green coming from motor I got hooked to green wire that runs to that little grounding place under seat, black wire coming from motor I got hooked to coil wire and the yellow I got hooked to nothing. What is the two wires running from grounding place under seat?

Yes I think it does just by kicking it I don't have no way to tell exactly how much compresion but just by feel it does

Well they ain't getting hot cause I can't get it started..I put new spark plug, cleaned points, took carb off cleaned it and I can spray starting fluid in it and it don't even try to start any suggestions? Do u think the motor might be bad?

Sorry the number is M-8502239

If the condensor is bad would i still have a spark?? Thanks in advance

Oh so ur saying my bike is probly a m85 250cc? 1972
