Re: opinions on best variated AF05e big bore kit

I think k...

Re: opinions on best variated AF05e big bore kit

heres a link to a metal spigot style carb adaptor. should let you mount a bigger selection of carbs to your manifold. https://www.ebay.com/itm/BB-C11-Collettore-Aspirazione-Honda-50-SP-DIO-SC01-SV-per-carburatore-PHBG/301985312268?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649 Ill o...

Re: a bigger better battery

yeah that's a nice battery but searching that P#, it looks to have been discontinued, and it is/was $120ish for 1 battery. I got a 5 pack of ytx5L-bs batteries for $70 shipped from amazon. that's $14 each battery. yours is 120cca 7.9ah and 25.6wh, the ytx5lbs is 90cca 4 ah and 48wh, the stock ytx4lb...

a bigger better battery

I just swapped batteries in my tg50, nn50, nb50, nq50, sa50, went from a ytx4L-bs to ytx5L-bs battery. went from 3ah to 4ah, while that doesn't seem like much, my lights are brighter, my starter can crank my higher compression big bores, my radios and underglow lights can stay on an hour before gett...

Re: opinions on best variated AF05e big bore kit

I wanted to add to this thread that af05e bbk's can still be had in Europe from spain to Italy. a search on fleabay or google for honda vision cilindro or kit will help find what youre looking for. I have purchased 2 polini cast iron kits, almost had an aluminum polini, also purchased a metrakit 47m...

Re: Bbk issues

look for air leaks and up jet. put your air box back on. might need a new piston and rings now though. but if it only soft seized your cylinder is probably still ok. hows compression? thatll tell you how much the piston and rings are damaged. look at cylinder base and head gasket areas for oil trail...

Re: AF05 Bore Questions

I think you need to do some studying before you purchase a pipe. theres a lot more to a pipe than just sex appeal. ive learned a lot about expansion cambers from 190mech on the other forum. and I still have ALOT to learn about them.. hes done a lot of write ups on the subject from design to fabricat...

Re: 85 aero 50 crank differences?
