Hello all,
So I am relatively new to the MB scene and to this forum but everyone here has been a great help. So I bought a new 80cc engine off eBay (just a basic kit engine). I know these engines require a break in period but i have a few questions. Here are my specs.
100:1 Opti2
C Clip is in the middle notch(every setting is same performance)
Stock NT Carb and jet
So the engine performs but it is very slow. Uphill is a struggle and it feels like its going to die. At half throttle the bike will cruise well on a flat surface but once I go downhill and speed up the engine seems to only perform so much. It feels limited if that makes sense. At WOT on flat it doesn't seem to have much of a difference. Also there is a semi rough noise coming from the engine. It sounds kind of grinding like but not a terrible grind. The engine makes the noise idling, and while riding.
Ill attach a video of me riding last night. (Excuse the clutch kill i have yet to wire my kill switch) I might sound dumb but here are my questions
Is this normal for break in?
Is there really that much of a performance boost after break in?
Am I Four Stroking?
Do I Need a new Jet?
Should I drain everything and try the standard 20:1 with 2 stroke oil?
Thanks in advance for all your help. I've learned a lot from this forum and i'm having a lot of fun! Im currently at work but I rode the bike here so if anyone has questions or wants pictures Ill try my best to help solve my problem!
