Good day! So I decided to write my first post. He will be how I turned Izh Planet in Dirt Tracker.
I work as a welder-argon. Before that, I worked for 10 years with a welder-strainer for a hundred. For work, it is often necessary to help people with their motorcycles - then the frame will burst, then the rim will split in the rat ...
Hosting a bike post decided and to chain the motorcycle. But we are not looking for easy ways, and stock motorcycles were rejected immediately. Before taking care of the motorcycle, the following requirements were delivered:
he must be inexpensive
Easily accession of spare parts in the market
Convenient for ride in the city - to work and from work
Test engine (I weigh a lot)
Therefore, the choice fell on IL planet. Through the Internet in one of the villages of the Sumy region, it was acquired for the adequate money, that is, a little more expensive than the gift. After delivering it to his native Kharkov, I began to work. Immediately decided to make a digit tracker from it - I really like this style.
Several photographs of the work process. 
After completing the work, IL has this kind. This is my first motorcycle that I redid.

I want to express my gratitude: Pasha "Gaiker", Stas "Leather" and Andrei Aviator for help in work.
In addition to a worthy appearance, IL Planet 5 has excellent specifications. The motorcycle package includes a single-cylinder two-stroke engine, the power of which is 22 liters. from. The fuel consumption and processing system requires a modest 5 l. Gasoline with stable ride at a speed of 90 km / h. In addition, this model of domestic moto one of the first received an air cooling system that increases the craving on small revolutions.
The maximum speed of the motorcycle is 120 km / h. The unit excellent shows itself in the road off-road and does not require large spending on service. All this is the cause of the mad popularity of Izh Planet 5 since 1987 to this day. After all, it may not every one of us to purchase an expensive Harley Davidson. But to give 5-6 thousand rubles for the domestic motorcycle many are capable of. In addition, the model of Izhevsk Mashzavod is much easier to tuning with her own hands, which cannot be said about the expensive American and Japanese "monsters".
2 Getting Started to Modernization ...
Starting the process of modifying individual elements and only IL planet 5 as a whole, it is worth aware that the work will be complex and long. Again, these are not foreign bikes, for tuning which the manufacturer has created ready-made sets and details in advance. To improve the domestic moto, you can choose 2 options - improving the appearance or increase specifications.
In most cases, Planet 5 owners are interested in styling a motorcycle. The first thing you want to pay attention is the muffler. Having spent a few hours in search of the Internet, or by visiting the nearest car market, you can find a set of chrome pipes and nozzles. Dismantling of regular "cans" and the installation of new steel parts will greatly facilitate the unit, making the engine more stable. The work of the exhaust system will improve, which will not "chop out" when the motor overheating when driving down off-road.
In order to improve the rear wheel stroke, you can install longer shock absorbers. They will raise the back of the planet 5, which will reduce the pressure on the gas tank and the engine. Along with this, you will have to carry out the wheelbread wheel balancing.
In addition, among folk craftsmen, such Izh Styling methods are also common:
- installation of bilateral arcs - they will protect the motorcycle and driver when falling;
- installing xenon - will help better illuminate the road and make moto noticeable at night or fog;
- replacing standard turn signals - installation instead of obsolete round modern rectangular parts;
- installing new windshield. This method is the most popular among the owners of IZh Planet 5, since when replacing one part, the appearance of the motorcycle is completely changed;
- an increase in the height of the front wing, which will give the unit a more sporty appearance;
- replacing standard tires to more modern and bright elements.
All of the above methods of modernizing the domestic motorcycle model in the root will change its appearance. However, before proceeding to work, think well, what the items you want to leave, and which requires replacement.
3 Tuning IZh - after Harley
In addition to the various methods of changing the appearance of the Moto, the owners of IZh Planet 5 have ample opportunities for tuning with their own hands. To understand which parts of the unit can be improved, consider each of them separately. The first thing comes to mind when upgrading the domestic motorcycle is the engine tuning. There are many ways to improve the "heart" IL Planet 5.
The first of these is the crankshaft recipe, which increases the motor power by 10-15%. Another common method of engine upgrading is the replacement of standard bearings on the part from the secondary shaft "eternal" domestic. In the process of disassembly, it is necessary to skill the lower separator and the upper ring of the motor. It is worth noting that as a result of such an operation, the resource of the exhaust system of IL planet 5 is significantly reduced. Therefore, it is necessary to resort to this method of improving engine engine improvement only when the unit will be used at high speeds.
Another option to modernize the domestic motorcycle is tuning a cylinder. To do this, we cut it with its upper part and rebuild the sleeve to 75 mm. As a result of this operation, your moto will be able to accelerate to 160 km / h.
The clutch plays one of the key roles in the design of the IZh Planet 5. To upgrade this part of the motorcycle, it is necessary to replace one of the standard disks to a thicker metal element. After that, the clutch spring will be clenched more tight, because of which the pedal will start squeezing a little harder. This operation will greatly facilitate the operation of the engine and other elements.
Another method of increasing the power of the motorcycle is tuning the superchard system. During the work, it is necessary to replace the standard air filter to import. At the same time, you can clean all the gaskets that will start passing more air, without giving the engine to overheat. By the way, the characteristics of the loading system in the motorcycle are improved in the same way.
Each of these methods of upgrading izh planet 5 is easy to perform with your own hands. After tuning, your motorcycle becomes an order of magnitude more powerful, more reliable and more durable.
The most popular domestic motorcycles were the IZH bikes produced by the Izhevsk Machine-Building Plant among them allocated the road version of the IL Planet - 5 tuning, which he allowed the owner to get an individual converted to his needs and desires of a motorcycle, practically its own model.
The IL Planet model - 5 in 1987 replaced the Motorcycle Izh Planet 4 on the conveyor and produced until 2008. The design of the fifth model allowed the technically literate owner with their own hands to perform tuning works. The following main types of tuning exist for motorcycles:
- appearance;
- engine;
- transmissions;
- chassis.
Specifications.
Serial planet 5 had the following main characteristics:
- base - 1.45 m;
- rama - welded, tubular;
- dimensions;
- Length - 2.20 m,
- Width - 0.81 m,
- Height - 1.20 m,
- mass - 160 kg; - 175 kg;
- the engine is a two-stroke single-cylinder;
- cooling option - air;
- diameter of the cylinder - 72 mm;
- working volume - 345 cubic meters. cm
- engine power\u003e - 22.0, hp;
- maximum speed - 120 km / h;
- fuel consumption - 5.0 l (90 km / h)
- the ratio of the mixture of oil and gasoline (A 76) - 1/30;
- aKB voltage - 12 volts;
- grip - multi-disc;
- transmission - four-stage.
These parameters and engine indicators provided a motorcycle high traction characteristics on small revolutions, which made sure to carry out a confident movement, primarily on rural roads.
Change of appearance.
Despite the fact that the design of the fifth model of the planet was probably the most interesting among all domestic motorcycles tuning a motorcycle IL Planet - 5 most often began with the appearance. The main reason for this was that work on the change in external image can be attributed to the simplest of those who do not require deep technical knowledge and skills.
For this purpose, the following main works were carried out:
- bilateral arcs and knee shields were installed;
- changed windshield;
- higher wings were mounted;
- replaced turn signs;
- replaced pipe muffler;
- increased lateral mirrors were installed.
Completely or partially tuning operations on the change in appearance immediately did a motorcycle recognizable and different from the serial fellow.
Improving technical parameters
Tuning to increase power.
Motorcycle engine design allows tuning to increase its power. One option is the reheating of the crankshaft of the engine and the change of support bearings. Usually, the secondary shaft bearings from the Java motorcycle were installed as new bearings. This restoration made it possible to achieve an increase in the power of the engine IL Planet - 5 by 10 15%.
The following option for the addition of power was to increase the volume of the cylinder. To this end, its upper part cut off and the sleeve was rearmed up to 76 mm. Then the corresponding piston was installed, a piston from the motorcycle of the Planet Sport was used.
Increase motorcycle speed.
After this operation, the speed of the motorcycle increased according to some data to 160 km per hour. Therefore, work on the increase in engine volume was performed by the owners who planned to exploit their vehicle mainly on high-speed highways.
The most complex version of technical tuning to add the power of IL Planet - 5 is the installation of superior. To this end, the outage of the exhaust valve is the device of which corresponded to the analogues on the sports versions.
Then the exhaust resonator is installed, which has sharply directed parameters. His task to create a wave sample of the fuel mixture. The following is mounted as a spool valve to obtain asymmetric phases of the motor, which makes it possible to avoid direct emission of the spent mixture.
Performing a superior on the engine fifth planet The process is quite complex and therefore not received widespread.
Improved clutch.
With an increase in the power of the motor, it is necessary to carry out work on improving the clutch. In standard conditions, the serial grip works confidently.
But with an increase in the load, the risk of "burn" its and performing subsequent repairs increases sharply. The main actions for tuning clutch are reduced to the replacement of standard disks on increased metal. Typically, such discs are made of two millimeter iron.
The use of thicker metal disks reduces slipping, deformation, bugs and provides greater heat transfer.
Tuning appearance.
If the execution of external tuning of the motorcycle changes the design, make it recognizable, then the tuning of the technical characteristics almost always reduces the resource of the power unit. Therefore, it should always remember that modernization can bring not only the benefit, but also harm.
Back in 1987, in the Izhevsk plant released the legend of the Soviet Moto technique - Motorcycle Izh Planet 5. Until today, this model is in good demand, since then it has been sold not one hundred thousand "Izhov".
Characteristics of the motorcycle are so good that from the moment of purchase, the transport could be used both in the rural road and in the city, which is talking about a powerful motor and modern design. Even with modern technique, IL can compete and even win in some parameters. With the engine at a total of 1 cylinder, the motorcycle is able to give the power in considerable 22 horses. Fuel consumption at medium speed 90 km / h is 5 liters. As for the factory maximum, the characteristics of IL planet 5 allow you to develop up to 120 km per hour. Thanks to a reliable design and high-quality Soviet assembly, transport is unpretentious and easily serviced after complex operation.
Tuning IL Planet 5. Preparation.
If you bought an expensive Japanese motorcycle, his tuning will become difficult, and independently carry out the upgrade. Tuning Izh Planet 5 do it yourself quite simple, you will have enough to have a small set of equipment and from the old Soviet transport to get a modern and powerful motorcycle. Any tuning consists of two types - external and internal (change in technical characteristics). Let's consider first the first option, namely the modernization of the appearance.
External tuning IL Planet 5
Often, styling individual elements are used to improve the appearance, and begin perhaps the silencer. Previously, a set for a silencer was made, which includes chrome tubes and various nozzles. Finding such a kit, you will receive not only a beautiful appearance, but also an improvement in the work of the exhaust system, and the engine will work even more stable and even more. Therefore, we advise you to start tuning from the exhaust pipe.
Next, most often use replacement of rear shock absorbers by setting higher size. Having lifted the motorcycle, the pressure on the engine and the gas tank will significantly decrease, so the replacement of the shock absorbers is also necessary. But it is worth considering that it will have to balance wheels for the correct operation. Let's look at other changes in the appearance of IL Planet 5.
- For better sportiness increase the height of the front wing.
- An additional tuning will replace standard round turn signals on rectangular.
- Modern view of external styling - installation of xenon. With him the vehicle will not only be more beautiful, but also safer on the road.
- Most often IL Owners Planet 5 install updated windshield. Only one detail will give a motorcycle a new appearance.
- To IL better led yourself on the road, instead of old tires, new and high-quality are installed.
Xenon on IZH
As you can see, tuning IZh Planet 5, whose photo is enough, show that the possibilities for modernization are sufficient, and can be limited not only by the above methods. You can change almost everything, it depends on your imagination and desire. Some craftsmen even created a motorcycle a sports case, thanks to which you can not even say that it is Izh.
Technical tuning IL Planet 5
Any vehicle can be changed and improved its technical data. The engine and other elements of the IL planet 5 are particularly well amenable to change, because thanks to a high-quality and easy engine assembly, it will be enough to change its components simply. Let's start, perhaps, with the engine tuning, which will increase the performance of your transport.
To increase the power of the motor first, it is necessary to relegate the crankshaft. The result will be an increase in engine indicators by 15%. This can be read on the forums, or ask the experienced people. The second engine styling is the installation of bearings from another motorcycle, namely Java 350. It is strongly recommended to carry out such tuning only when you plan to exploit IL on large and high-speed races, because this change threatens the worsening of the exhaust system.
Repressing crankshaft izh planet 5
Also, a standard increase in the power of any vehicle is a boring of the cylinder, so the Motorcycle IZH Planet 5 after an increase in volume to 75 mm will receive a significant speed gain, in most cases the maximum indicator is 160 km per hour.
Let's go on, and the next version of the tuning IL Planet 5 will be improved superchard system. To do this, you need to put an expensive foreign filter of foreign production. We also advise you to put new gaskets that will keep air.
On this, the basic options for external and internal tuning IZh Planet 5 do it yourself, whose photos and videos are gradually ending. At its discretion, you can produce other changes, but any modernization can be both in favor of the motorcycle and in charge. Therefore, advise with knowledgeable people and choose your version of refinement.
