Hey MB'ers!
This is my first build, just thought i'd throw a couple pics up and introduce myself.
I'm from melbourne, australia and decided to build up a motored bike to get around on for a while due to a license suspension...
I read everything i could on this forum about the 2 stroke HT's, and so far with a few minor mods its up and running in a 26" cruiser
66cc ebay HT kit, NGK plug and bosch lead and a "speed" carb.
roughened up intake port and tube, deburred anything i could find in the bore/head
had to machine out the center hole in the rear sproket to fit over the hub,
and also fabricate an engine mount for the downtube because it was too fair away,
its handy having a lathe, vice and welder around for these builds!
still on the first tank of gas, mixed it at 16:1 was getting some 4 stroking low-mid range,
just leaned it out at the needle, and see how it goes after the next tank, going to try 32:1. using castrol oil as well.
next I plan on chopping the seat post down and get that seat riding low, install a rear fender and search for some nice old school grips
