Re: Noob: looking for info for a first time AF16 clone build

I have been chipping away at this build for a while now. I got the malossi RHQ crank for Christmas and have finished porting the cases. Today I slapped the crank in and set up the degree wheel. With no gaskets and a light hand torque I have 130 transfers, and 186 exhaust with the Polini Corsa. I am ...

Re: Noob: looking for info for a first time AF16 clone build

So I was riding the Kymco zx the other day, and I started hearing that dreaded sound like a crank bearing going bad. I pulled all the stuff from the CVT and sure enough the crank has some play in it. There is almost 15000 miles on the odometer, so I guess it is almost time? It is really a bummer cau...

Re: Vino 50 4 stroke ?

Slap a Taiwan 70cc kit on it from Autotech, A tecnigas next r pipe, a bigger main jet in the stock carb, and lean forward so the front wheel stays on the ground! Mine is awesome! As 1man8scoots pointed they are the ONLY minarelli horizontal I know of that comes from the factory with the cases trench...

Yup, eventually, hopefully.

Re: Noob: looking for info for a first time AF16 clone build

Greetings: Have to go back and read F3.26 in 2011 or 2012, but I vividly recall seeing 10, 300 on the TinyTach at 70. Tallish 7.57 gears though. Never say "never". Just to clarify I just put the pg short on a zx50 engine that sees 11,800 rpm with out any issue and I can only spin 9800. 5g...

Re: Noob: looking for info for a first time AF16 clone build

The only gearing options for the sc10as usdm zx50 engine has only ever been the polini or malossi 16/32 gears. The 15/42 gearing you are thinking of is for a minarelli. The pg short won't be a good choice for a high revving engine. A scorpion would be the best suit for a heavy rider on a zx50. Also...

Re: Noob: looking for info for a first time AF16 clone build

I have been researching other threads, and it seems the PG short may not be a good match for the Corsa BBK. What are some pipes that would go well with the Corsa kit, besides the PG long?

Re: Noob: looking for info for a first time AF16 clone build

By the way for what its worth, a while back I traded a nice stock Vento scoot with a horizontal minarelli motor for a 94 Honda EliteS and an 84? Spree. Both of the scoots are in pretty rough basket case status, but I hope to eventually get them going.

So many scooters...So little time!

Re: Noob: looking for info for a first time AF16 clone build

I might have missed something. You have several gear choices for your motor. Hello graphite9, Your help would be greatly appreciated sourcing the gears. The stock gears I have are 10.65:1 I heard that using primary gears from the AF05E will get me to 6.89:1 but that is way too tall for me, especial...

Re: Noob: looking for info for a first time AF16 clone build

Greetings: If you want to go 60 on 10.6:1 gears, you will want all the RPM you can get. Corsa, or possibly Fabrizi can gin up the revs best. To me the MHR had better bottom end, but mine never revved as high as the Corsa. I would discourage you from ministroking unless you are prepared to spent som...
