Hi- names Larry, and at the age of 50 decided to go back to college. Didn't want to commute with my van 5 miles each way and I'm 70 pounds over weight so I thought "HImmmmm,,,,how about a bike?" After puffing and panting a few blocks this thought was changed to "Himmm, how about a bike with a motor for when I'm exhausted?" (Pardon the pun!
So I purchased a basket case off Craigslist, and now I'm scratching my head trying to get it operational. The theory being looking at the old one at least gives me an idea how to install a new one if I need to do that.
Can anyone tell me where I can find a data plate on these engines so I can order parts and stuff? It seems to be a well built 49cc 2 cycle motor thats worked well.
But I need a chain. I've got a roller chain guide on order- I counted my rear sprockets and its a 54 tooth so its for power. Found a new plug- need to find out what to gap it.
So the quest continues- I have 3 months to get this thing operational
