Hey Fellow Motor Bike Lovers!
Brand new to the motorized bicycle game. Was helping my aunt with some things around the house and she gave me her less than 1/2 a tank burnt brand new "happy bike" (not sure if thats what you call it) Chinese motor on a huffy beach cruiser frame. She gave it to me because she thought she would use it an realized she didnt like getting it started and the maintenance that goes along with it. Score for Me!!!
So I am left with a brand new bike yay!! So I started by making sure everything was kosher before I took it for a spin tightened every bolt greases everything up mixed up the right mixture etc..and man is this thing is fun man never rode one before. Is it not good to use synthetic oil during the break in period? I will just be going onto my second tank after work today so halfway through the break in period I assume.
I think I figured out why My aunt was having problems with it and I have not fixed it yet just using a band-aid right now.... My gas line is getting to much air in it and will only run through what is in the filter and lines and then I have to open up the gas tank to get the gas to flow into the carb. Very anooying but Im going to trouble shoot it later tonight, any suggestion please shout them out.
Well I just wanted to introduce myself as I will be referring to this forum quite a bit. Any other People from Boston?
Quick question I have been pondering I do not plan On registering this thing. My state requires anything above 40cc to be registered my question is how will they now how many cc it is cant I just tell them its under 40CC? Which it might very well be I am unsure as the only markings on motor A Chinese Characters
Oh yeah I go by BostonReefer not cause of weed Another one of my hobbies is reef keeping (salt water fish and Corals)
