Re: 72cc Stock Setup Concerns

I think the Temp Issues are Related to the Stock Carb, .. WOT give the Cylinder the Fuel It Needs to Cool Down, Where as with an Aftermarket Carb you can Up the Pilot Jet and Really Dial In the Fuel Intake.

Re: 72cc Stock Setup Concerns

I don't use a CHT gauge, I just Read the Plug... never had any issues but you've got me curious.. I may have to invest in a CHT gauge, on the other hand I feel like it may have me worring about excessive temps.. Also, I use the Stock Oil pump.. just Zip Tied wide open. One day with my old build I ro...

Re: Somewhat Quite Exhaust for 72cc Malossi Cast Cylinder

Does anyone know at what RPM the Cast Malossi Makes the most Power? And if the V-8 doesn't allow for higher RPM power I'm guessing a lower Gear-Set would work to my advantage such as 8:44's

Re: Somewhat Quite Exhaust for 72cc Malossi Cast Cylinder

I did have an opportunity to buy a SEF at one point, what about the PG Short as that is a can style Correct? I would assume any can style muffler would be somewhat quite? I did like the performance of my Chamber Pipe but it was Ridiculously Loud!

I've pulled all the plastics and checked to make sure the cables were not causing any binding. Im just looking for a measurement from the frame to the center of the wheel/axle. I think that wil...

Re: Measurement on Front Forks - Possibly Bent

The steering does turn from lock to lock but has drag in each direction about 3/4 of the way to the lock.

Re: Elite vs Zuma

I spoke with a guy in Chicago and he said he had a water cooled 93cc kit on his zuma and it was running almost 80mph... Not sure what year.. But sounds expensive to build...lol
