Hey guys, I've recently purchased a 4 stroke 49cc motor kit and I'm waiting on its delivery. I was wondering what is the best way to break in this motor and most importantly what's the maximum range one should ride when its mounted on? My guess is 30-60 miles but I'm probably wrong. I understand they get more than 100 mpg, thanks
well, i would vary the rpm (ie low mid and a little bit of WOT, like you would normally ride it, but less full thorttle lol)
the 100+ mpg thing is more of a marketing thing, your gas tank only holds like .4 gallons
and it will get you around 35miles (ie filled to the brim to flat empty)
the break-in period is around 3 tanks. then i would change the oil with some full sethetic stuff (walmart oil is good enough for these engines)
but if you have the $$ get some moible 1 or castrerol edge (do these oil make it better, not really, but its really nice oil)
if you have any questions, just ask this forum! lots of people are willing to help you out
also, you might want to put front brakes on that bike (if it doesnt have it already, some do, some dont)
trust me when i say this, a rear brake is good, but a front brake is better (i rode with only a rear brake for a while, then i got a 2in1 lever, changed my world completely!)
good luck on your build!
