Meguro 250cc : S5 Junior Meguro 250cc: S5 Junior a fourth model series, only four months of 1959, ended production is 4889 units are concentrated. In such a situation, the end was the best bike for the production of most Meguro S3, the new bike had been planned as the next major product (With the focus F series bikes with OHC4 cycle engine), there were plans to move to this new bike will be unexpected and unpopular, due to the Meguro motorcycle sales have plummeted, suddenly followed by S3 Was planning to produce a fourth model. "S4" had to to "4" is "death" (In the Japanese pronunciation of "shi" = "4")leads to, is that it's not like the meaning. While the frame structure with a characteristic appearance of Meguro, the S3 has a long wheelbase shorter, dome-shaped fuel tank-type water drops similar to new Meguro bike (German speaking like a motorcycle well, at worst, "iron hat") was. Moreover, it is also equipped with turn signals in accordance with the new Meguro to. Other slim 18in diameter front and rear of the (3.00-3.25) tires and rear shock absorbers for practical plunger, S3 is an inherited specification. The engine is designed to cycle single-cylinder 248cc OHV4 new type K3, which improved performance (11.5HP/ 5000rpm). 6v-DC electrical magneto ignition, the primary chain cover by press plate dry clutch, but was converted to configurations with cast aluminum blocks. Further specifications and production separately about 10-20 units left shift in the prototype model specifications Kalasuyama Works of Meguro, are known to have been produced. The difference is that the transmission was moved to the left by a body expression pedal, the only primary chain case. Then, the fuel tank's design specification omits the paint coating. This prototype car is one of them miraculously, has survived by the owner of the production area, Tochigi Pref Karasuyama Japan. As noted even in the S3, this time the other Japanese motorcycle makers are already on the main product with 2-stroke engine and began to announce the availability of high-power sport bikes at high rpm, It became popular not be obtained only in older product specifications, such as the S5 is one of Meguro, Meguro a brand image, despite being dedicated to specifications with extremely reliable and practical, this failed to follow other manufacturers trying to tap into not believe that was caused from poor management. S5 is four months and despite a slightly shorter period of production, also has many manufacturing units are concentrated, are still found in many parts of Japan. Like the S3, but more than 40 years we have already been manufactured, designed also in a hurry, or have been affected production and less good condition. *** Principal statistics *** * Total length : 2,110 mm * Full-width : 750 mm * Total height : 1,010 mm * Distance between axis : 1,370 mm * Weight : 158 kgf * Engine type : K3 type : Single cylinder OHV 4 cycle * Entire aerodynamic volume displacement : 248 cc * Installed capacity : 11.5 HP / 5,000 rpm * Full speed : 100 km/h * Fuel economy : 47 km/L * Transmission : Advance 4 step rotary * Tire : (Front) 3.00~18-4 / (Rear) 3.25~18-4 * Starting system : kick
