Re: I don't have a name for my build begins
If you dont mind me asking, what type of crank are you using?
Re: I don't have a name for my build begins
Right now i'm going with OEM Honda crank. I was waiting on another forum member to get me a price on a teflon stuffed mini-stroker but haven't heard from him. I'm not sure if i'll stay with stock crank or mini-stroke later. I'd like the extra torque but i ran stock crank last summer and was satisfied with performance. We'll see.

Re: I don't have a name for my build begins
Mr. evilone,
wow dude, nice job - your motor looks great! -that's what i love to see; complete, accurate, clean builds!
keep us posted on your build, and post up progress pictures. Are you using the PG Long you bought from me on that build?
elite_dub couldn't help you out on a mini-stroker crank? Either way, you will be happy w' the stock crank. Veedubh20 swears by the stock crank's strength and ability to handle higher modified engine RPM's. -You can't argue w' Honda reliability
snow, snow, snow here. im ready for Spring.
later, jon

The mini-stroker elite_dub was trying to get me was discontinued, he said he could get me the same crank you got but it was something like $250-$275, Ouch! I've heard Veedubh20 say stock crank is stronger several times so i had no problem using stock. 2 more months of winter here, then april showers. I hope it goes quick. See ya, Kyle.

Re: I don't have a name for my build begins
wish I could of found you a crank man, they are floating around, but people just don't want to let them go...I know sanjuro sourced his from Japan and cost a pretty penny also.. a stock crank will work out great just get some porting done on whatever kit your putting in there.. I did just find a lower price on the SEF copy crank from Travis where Jon received some of his parts but he's still asking $200... there are the run of the mill ruima half counterweighted crank they work great but I know that stuffed crank gives you best of both worlds a faster rev along with the case pressure of a full countered crank without the weight GOOD STUFF
Have fun with your build and good looking out on that tool.. I may buy one soon, just to have and it works alot more simpler than the OEM Honda tools

Re: I don't have a name for my build begins
No problem, thanks for looking. My cast iron Malossi 72cc is ported pretty good, I ran an R1 last summer and i'm sure the PG Long will open it up alot. I dropped from a 28mm oko to a 24mm oko per arnadanoobs advice. I think i'll be right where i want performance wise. I was almost to that point using the low-rev R1 and 28mm carb. I'll keep my eye out for a stuffer crank to use later if needed.elite_dub wrote:wish I could of found you a crank man, they are floating around, but people just don't want to let them go...I know sanjuro sourced his from Japan and cost a pretty penny also.. a stock crank will work out great just get some porting done on whatever kit your putting in there..

Re: I don't have a name for my build begins
Hopefully as more of use start modding the parts will stay available . I didn't know people even modded scooters till the gas prices went way up and i got a spree. I wanted to go faster and looked up mods for it. That's when i found out about the Dios and Jogs.Wheelman-111 wrote:Greetings:
