Hi iron monkey
If you have read my previous posts, you'll know that i don't exceed 3,500 rpm.
Any more rpm and the engine is starting to vibrate itsef to bits - this is the main problem that needs to be solved - apart from the atrocious crankshaft balance factor, the factory assembly process could be a significant cause of excessive vibration with these engines.
Anyway, the thread isn't a debate about why you should not be making these engines reliable just because they are cheap.
The thread is about listing the methods of reengineering the product to make it a useful piece of machinery for daily transport with dual functionality as a recreational bicycle.
Feel free to comment on the modifications you've made in design and finished product, ideally with detailed photos and instructions for the other members who may have a need to replicate the process.
