Hi! I'm a new guy!

[MrShorty]

Hi, new to bike motors. But, been working on allot of other motors most of my life. I don't see where I will have any trouble working on these with all of the information on this site. If I do, "Ya'll be hearing from me!"

Welcome to the forum. You shouldn't have any problems maintaining a bike motor.
The two stroke China Girls are great for guys with no mechanical experience to learn about motors because they are so simple and contain relatively few parts.

Thanks wheelbender6! I'll be OK! I have 5 R/C boats with Zenoah, O&R, and Homelite motors that I've had for years (think the 1hp O&R may have to go on a old bike).
I like to build stuff, and fabrication of parts, more than anything!

Welcome, MrShorty!
With the experience you have gained playing with your RC boats, you are going to have a blast playing with an MB.

 

[MrShorty]

Thanks GearNut! I'm looking forward to it!
My first MB build has about 10 miles on it with no problem (knock on wood)!

Hope this works for my pic's.

Ooooh boy! That bike is Klean with a capitol K!
Very nice ride, MrShorty!

 

[MrShorty]

Thanks! I'm proud of it for a first build. And. it is a 80cc (I sand blasted 49cc on the clutch cover, 49cc is the limit before tags here in Va.).

Very clever with the sand blasting!
Cali will let me run a 900cc if I want to, but the limit is 1.9 hp.
