Anybody know about Chinese Hua Sheng F142 49cc 4 stroke engine

[Big Red]

HS is a good motor for the money, don't believe anything less. The 37cc livefastmotors has for sale is on my radar. $165............

Thanks darwin. That's cool if yer into friction drive. If ya notice, The chain drives are quite a bit more. And I'm kinda Old School. I gotta have a chain in the mix. But like I've always said,
IT'S YOUR BIKE, BUILD IT YOUR WAY.

replacing the choke lever on huasheng 49cc

it was funny when I read your post. I just bought a new choke lever from boy-go-fast, how does it come out, I don't want to break anything. I can't find it anywhere online. Do I need to take the carburetor apart.

Thanks Joe

It would be nice if honda would lower prices, but don't hold your
breath. As far as function is concerned the only difference from the
HS is that the HS has more compression. While hondas have
compression relief on starting, you may have to lean into to an
HS a bit more on starting. Not a big deal once you get the HS broken
in. They both seem to have a flimsy choke lever. I replaced mine
with one I made from a bit of brass, but,( though I dread using the
name), Boy-Go-Fast has 'em cheaper than honda.
You can get a lot of miles from a properly broken-in HS, but running
one wide open for any length of time is a really bad idea. Stay within
7000 rpm except to accelerate, and that engine should last a good
long while.

Bin a while, I think it just lifts of if you get under it with some needlenose.
I didn't waste money on replacing the flimsy damn thing. I just made
a lever from a bit of brass & screwed into place. It's been a really long
time since I've hear from this thread. Any fondness I might had for the
HS engine has long since turned to bitter resentment.

Thank you

I installed this motor about 9 months ago and it has been running like a champ. Can you tell me what happened to your motor and why you dislike them so much now. I had a 2 stroke , actually went through two of them, for a year and a half and had alot of problems with them, this is so much better than those. I ride about 15 miles a day to work and back.

Thank you, Joe
