Re: Bystarter/autochoke delete on 1985 Aero 80 with new carb?
First, yes, you can block all the hoses associated with the choke if your new carb has a manual choke. Second, thieves need to be hung, shot, boiled in oil, and sodomized. Third, I would do a very close inspection of the brass tube that is associated with the overflow. I have seen(several times) th...

Re: Honda Shadow 50cc -> big bore kit
Greetings: The red - on - Chrome scooter in the pics above appears to be a Chinese machine sold as the "Venice 150" among probably many other names. That is no Honda as far as I can tell. The only badging I could see in your pictures is stamped on the belt cover, which also looks like no ...

Re: (Aero 80) Beginning Maintenance Resources?
Hello and welcome Scott... :hi: It would be nice to know where you are located....and your age. The world of 2-stroke engines is not a difficult thing to understand. There is a book written decades ago all about 2-strokes. I'm sorry I don't know the title, but it is considered the "bible"...

Re: Official NS50F thread
Greetings: Yes of course I meant the NS. But it's eight years later, liquid cooling ostensibly means more power, perhaps a few more pounds, and they go with a Drum?! Not curious ?!? Maybe cost was a factor, but if I owned an NS I'd think about converting to disc if only for the Profile. The convers...

Re: Official NS50F thread
Greetings: So scarce are these, but if one of either model ever comes up within striking distance, I'm DOWN! But does anyone else find it curious that the MB5 went back to drum brakes? *? MB5 from 1982 with disc brake front...then NS50f from 1990 with drum brake front...it seems you have confused t...

Re: Member Check-In thread
I can't believe Virginia really thinks that GVWR is a necessary factor on a scooter.
The states I've lived in require such info strictly pertaining to trucks.

Re: 1987 se50p elite- big bore kit- info
Start by identifying YOUR engine. No telling what has been put in your bike, or how many times it has been changed. Look for the stamped numbers located on a small rectangular boss at the rear of the engine case. It is easy to see just below and behind the clutch housing. Once you've established you...

Re: Honda Shadow 50cc -> big bore kit
Here in USA, Honda never made a model called "Shadow" except in big motorcycles.
Your scooter is JDM. Sorry, can't help with info.
It would help if you will tell us the engine code.

Re: Need more air - jetting
Based on your description, and not knowing if the main jet and pilot are stock, but assuming they are close, I'd say that the pilot jet is plugged with varnished gas is the first choice. Second choice is that the air inlet in the throat of the carburetor that feeds the adjustment screw is plugged w...
