Hi Vince and -Bob, thanks for crossing your fingers, it was very helpful.


Hi Admiral, below the third run. Run #1 was ok, but I lost my temporary fixation of the Hall-Sensor.
During run #2 I have lost the compression at cylinder #1.
And here is run #3, the first Hoglet running as a single cylinder.

Excellent  :praise2:  :praise2: and I can almost put a face to a name  ;)

Hopefully you be able to quickly solve the loss of compression (I know the feeling  ::) )

I am sure you will quickly find the reason why you lost compression on the other cylinder and it will run even better.

Roger, Vince thanks for watching.


In the meantime I realized, that paper is not a good idea for the Hoglet head gaskets.
Now it is assembled with none and it is running like a Hog now.

Very nice!

When do you start on the rest of the motorcycle?!

If it runs that well with no gaskets, are they really needed? Must have a very good fit on the parts.

Hello Achim,

I have missed a lot off your build.
Made a catchup this evening and have to say it’s a great build.
Very good runner indeed.
How is the progress on the snow?
