So I've compiled some parts that will make its way on to my build eventually to see how much better they may perform over what I've done to the stock parts to improve it's performance.
As of now, having spoken with a few builders I can realistically aim for a speed of around 45mph with the mods I've made to the stock Zeda80 engine parts...This has yet to be seen but that's my goal as of right now.
I'm thinking my first bolt on even though it was purchased for a different build will be the Huffy Davidson Lightning Strike CDI kit...I'd like to compare this also with the Supercharge CDI kit which I still need to purchase.
Next up I'm going with the Zeda66 pipe....this has a small exhaust tube just like a stock muffler but we'll see if the chamber is really going to help or not...The flange on the Zeda66 measured 18.1 mm in diameter and was quite a bit larger than the flange on the stock pipe...To keep things fair I went ahead and opened the flange up to match the stock exhaust port diameter as I've done with the modded stock muffler.
A shorter intake in theory should help improve top end power so a CDH CNC intake will be used in place of the ported and longer stock aluminum intake manifold but not without some modifications needed.
I will actually be trying a few different carburetors so instead of choosing one I'll just compile the list and whichever I find to work best will make the final decision to put it on the motor permanently.
1.) Bored NT Speed carburetor (16mm)
2.) Dellorto 15mm clone
3.) PZ16 16mm Keihin clone.
The only thing left is the cylinder head...I recently made a request looking for one of the Jake's clone heads to try for this phase in the build and was replied to by someone offering an brand new authentic still in the box Jake's cylinder head...Floored by this offering, I pulled the trigger based solely on price given and a notion that it may be real and if it wasn't the price was still great for a clone...I have confirmed this is the real deal and i couldn't be happier having made this purchase.
Considering this is an authentic 6cc Jake's head and still new in the box I've made a decision to not use this head and wish to keep it in its new condition so, im still looking for a used clone cylinder head to use along with the rest of the bolt ons.
So how much faster can I go?...I have no idea but I'm hoping even closer to 50mph and this is with no port timing changes or even port matching...Sounds impossible but we will see how close I can get it.
Picked this up 3 days ago for this build...Changes will be made to the bike as well for safety concerns.
