I need y'all's input!

Post by Okil69 »

So guys, I need your input, Sunday I'm getting an Eton Beamer, it's got a 70cc bbk 2 stroke, a performance exhaust with expansion chamber, (not in pics) and a oko carb. According to the guy it runs fine. All it needs is a carb adjustment because it getting too much air. What do you guys think about it?

I would be suspicious of the carb jetting being too lean...since the seller tells you it needs a carb "adjustment"...
That is a common statement by sellers when selling something that doesn't run right.

It's crazy, I'm 17 and I've had 4 scooters, I just can't stay away from them it's like some weird obsession/passion of mine.

@swimmingfree are there any other tips you can give me?
@paulpauly it's going to be a blast to ride! Haha
@motormike I intend to give it a thorough looking before I decide.

Its a lot like your vento, but if its getting to much air and its been getting to much air then its probably going to have some issues. Too much air= lean. The eton are known for electronics issues also. In stock form theyre pretty quick because of a higher CR than the normal mina clone.

i hope he got some other jets when he got the carb get them if he did that will save you about 50 dollars for jets..
i wood pull the plug after you get it and see what it looks like ....
take it for ride if it runs well and the price is wright get it ( allways offer less the what he wants he may take it ) ..one thing you may need to get is different final drive to get more top speed out of it ... dose this scooter have minny after market parts??

Not that I'm aware of. And again, I'm a kid so I really don know alot. I heard if the plug is white, it's running lean. It has to be a light Carmel color or something correct?

@Swimmingfree : The guy said he didn't remember whether it had an 80 or 90 jet. If it's not good enough i'll take the 105 out of my buddy's bike
