Hello, I'm new to the 2 stroke gasbike world. i have two 79cc 4 stroke bikes and i love them. they're reliable and i get around 30mph consistently with 300lb+ of big guy riding them. my question is, where do i start when considering a 2 stroke? i want the best i can get for mid range pricing. probably about 400$ USD tops for the kit. i was looking at a zeda 100 Dio Reed Performance kit (i probably said that wrong) but it seems something happened over at Zeda. Have they gone out of business? I'm assuming for a heavier set guy, i want a bigger bore and to stay away from too high of a gear ratio. maybe keep the stock 44 tooth sprocket? the point is, i want something that can really get me moving like the 4 stroke kits i have do. From endless hours of YouTube research, it seems this may be possible with a 2 stroke. maybe even better. should i bite the bullet and go all out building a case reed type setup for 1000$+ and just keep saving and building? or is there something out there that can perform well right out of the box even with the extra weight? I'm a Mechanic by trade so if there are options like "buy this kit, add this carb, toss that expansion chamber on, good to go" on and on... whatever it takes to make me go 40+ on a cruiser with a 2 stroke will be considered. at the moment, all i've found that's currently in stock that looks decent is the helio kits. but that seems off to me. for the price of a normal 2 stroke they claim that every single piece of their kit is upgraded. I've been burned before so when i see something that seems too good to be true, i usually decide that it is. any input is appreciated!! (other than weightloss tips. LOL) thanks for reading this far. and thanks again for your reply!!
