Hey all!! Just wanted to introduce myself and my new build.
I bought the cheapest ebay hit at the time which was a 50cc for $88 shipped. I am NOT NEW to 2-Strokes. I have been building pocket bikes and GoPeds for a long time.
It seems like everybody goes for the 66/80 CC Motors, I've been trying to read through a bunch of threads with not much luck.
With that said this 50cc has as far as I know on these engines and upgraded cylinder. I also opened up the gaskets to match as well as the intake a little bit and the exhaust and exhaust port.
I just want to do a little bit of work to it and I will be doing some endurance running, and I know these engines don't like wide open throttle for long times. We'll see how it goes. Here's some pics.
I have a mountain bike I bought for $40, the whole goal of this project was a $150 budget or less. Minus safety items. What's to do this what is a competition with a buddy but he's not going to be able to compete.
I actually spent $138 including bear coil and CDI and tensioner, which the kit actually came with a 4 bolt tensioner. I have spare chain links and spark plug. I'll be slapping the motor back together here soon also polishing the exhaust port and piston head.
I am glad to hear about running 32 to 1 because with pocket bikes you can do 40 or 50 to 1. Glad I checked.
Like others on this forum I don't expect a lot of miles on this, I know the quality, I'm all about a little bit of corrective power and we'll see about the rest.
A few pics of the current situation. There is definitely information on here that has been great about certain oiling and greasing certain parts.
