I got a new 50cc 4 stroke from Spooky Tooth Cycles. (Desert Rat)
It's a fun bike. When I let off the throttle it jerks quite a bit. It feels like the gear box is binding up. It ramps up to 20mph smoothly, the chain and sprockets are in line. I filled the gear box half way with 80 wt gear oil per their instructions, but I have gear oil seaping out after I run for about 5 minutes. I read some other posts and read a comment on lightly greasing the gears vs. gear oil. If any of you more experienced guys could lend me some advice, I'd greatly appreciate it.
I also am looking for her to go about 30mph. Right now she'll only go 20. I'm 6'1" and 190lbs. Can I modify the exhaust, larger sprocket, ect or am I just (blowing smoke) if I want to get her to do 30mph with only a 50cc motor.
