Getting back in the Sa50 game

Post by rowe94 »

I bought a couple scoots end of last year and i had 2 2001 elites in there but only one body panel. I sold one of the engines to a buddy for a spree swap the other one I havnt had time to touch till now. I tore it apart to check the compression and I have 60lbs of compression... not going to get the scoot going anywhere soon. I cleaned the carb and found out that it has a 88 main jet... Im thinking thats more then i will need. I have a V8 pipe that will be going on the bike as well as a MVS ported stock bore that will be going on the bike and a set of 9.1 gears. I am hoping to keep the stock carb and just jet it. I am wondering where should I start for jetting?

I also need to buy myself a CHT gauge. and a Vari. not looking to spend a ton just trying and getting a scoot for friends to use when they come and visit.

Greetings:

F9 is 72cc and likes 90 main on stock pipe. Maybe 88 for yours will be Ok, but the V8 pipe is another variable.

Most of my money is spent on scooterparts. The rest is just wasted.
