john b Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Hi there Got a TLM 50 for my son, and was after a big bore kit. I cant find anything TLM specific, but can find an MT50 60cc kit below - apparently the same engine ? Can anyone confirm before I buy ? http://www.patternparts.net/fcm-Barrel__Big_Bore_Kits-Honda_MT_50-18-69.aspx cheers John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy m Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 99 per cent they will interchange. The tlm had road kit fitted so they could be registered as a moped. I am sure the engine was same as the earlier MT and MB5. Look at this link, 3 rd pic down is Peter Gaunt, his bike is 62cc http://www.trialscentral.com/forums/topic/43483-perce-simon-sammy-miller-series-17th-november-2012/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john b Posted July 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Thanks for that ! Yeah I've seen Peter Gaunt riding his at some trials - and it certainly is capable ! (as he is as a rider !) We have tried the TLM before strip down - Its being prepped for my sons Christmas present (he's 12) and it works well - just need to rev and splat to get the front end up - but seems a great little bike - a great step uf from his Whitehawk 80 cheers - and think I'll invest in the 60cc kit John 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatchef Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 Hello, the tlm 50 engine and the mt5 mb5 motors are not the same.To be fair to andy m there are a lot of internal parts that are interchangeable. Tlm motors are the next gen motor along similar to mbx 50,(brit market) mtx 50 s.h ( german market). Someone does a 70 kit. vsmotoparts.com. Not sure about exhaust port angle? ive done a fair bit to mine, 100cc.Stock gearing and pulls third up hills,( with a bit of run up:)great little bike. Always puts a smile on my face. Hope this is some help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john b Posted July 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 Thanks for the note - I've emailed but the company are on holiday so I'll hopefully get sorted. Have you got any photos of your tlm ? Cheers John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john b Posted August 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 Latest update No joy from company in Holland (vsmotoparts) - spoke to them and they just said to have a look on the website for something I thought would fit ?? I have a friend who lives in Japan ( search on youtube and loads of videos of TLM50's trialling in japan !) who is investigating out there..... cheers John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
