Finally got my 100cc (79cc) Predator clone kit done! Put on 35 miles over the last few weeks. Got it to 45mph (still has governor). Rides smooth, reliable, sounds good! Sounds like a little 4-stroke pit bike. Had to buy a replacement carb and install new clutch, and adjust valve lash. Pretty happy with it now. Gets lots of attention, especially pulling up to the gas station and pumping gas right into it! Appreciate everyone who helped with good advice.
Finally got it dialed-in

It could very well be it just looks way different then a predator gov. I took the one out along with oil sensor which is a very easy job but it still doesn't rev as high as I think it should.
I don't have gears though just a clutch on the motor and a sprocket on the wheel

Yeah, the kit says it revs to 3,600rpm and it sounds like that’s all it does. This motor I think is either a rebranded predator 79cc or a clone motor. It does run good, but makes a decent “tick” sound. All the videos I have seen of this motor or clones sound the same, and the oil looks pretty good when I change it, so not too worried. Decided to just turn the music up and enjoy it! Lol!

Never heard of Whizzer. Thanks for the history link. It’s super cool, love that it’s a 4-stroke flat head engine. Bet it sounds good and turns lots of heads, with people not sure what they are looking at!

Clone engines are a copy of a Honda engine. If it doesn't have Honda on the side, it's a clone. Any other brand, Box Stock, B&S, Kohler, etc. are clones.
There is a whole section category in the forums devoted to just Whizzers...lol...Surprised you might have missed that in the sub-sections...lol.
When it's parked some ask if it's electric
I laugh and say "yep, when I start the engine it makes electricity for spark and lights" Then they give me the confused look
When I'm at a car show and have parked my bike, Sometimes I'll pretend it's not mine. It's interesting what people say
As some people have asked you, is it made by Harley Davidson, I often get asked if my Whizzer is a Harley
I say "No that's a Hardly"
At least it's not a Huffy Davidson...lol.I say "No that's a Hardly"

Well, yours at least looks plausible that it could be made by Harley!When it's parked some ask if it's electric
