I get what he means but this is fuel air mixture not just straight fuel. I've never had a problem with it
Zeda 100 performance doesn't fit on bicycle!

Can you rotate the intake a quarter of a turn and still have it work?

I managed to get a 90 on the there and got it moved as much as possible back. Feet still touch it when firmly planted on pedals and pedaling but I can live with that.
Now if only I can get the damn thing to run right! I originally had a thumb throttle which didn't have enough throw so I swapped to the stock twist throttle (worst junk ever) , it idles super high and erratic, idle adjustment screw all the way out and will bog super hard on any more than 15% throttle. Even after getting warmed up.

Nope. It is rectangular. It can be flipped 180 but then it hits the crankcase. Talked to bicycle-engines about it and they told me to use a different motors mount as if that's going to help with how far it physically sticks off the bike. What a joke of a kit if I'm being honest. The example bike they showed me looked like a motorcycle and the pedals were moved so far up it they were almost touching front tire!

Too much carb.

im using the carb that came with the kit! The OKO carb. I cant even use the stock carb on the head because its modified for the reed valve. I mean maybe i could with a coupler but it would be a massive reduction in diameter.

You'll have to find some smaller jets, it's getting so much fuel now, it can't even burn any of it.
Have you thought about an angled seat post, move your bum back a bit, maybe easier to pedal.
I've seen lots of photos of bikes like that and always wondered how did they even get them going.

I have an open port on the reed valve for a boost bottle of sorts. Dumb question but should that be blocked off?

Absolutely. Put a vacuum cap on that.

I figured. Helped with erratic idle but made it reallyyyy bog down even with 15% throttle. So if it's getting less air now and runs worse, it's way too rich I'd assume. This seriously pisses me off. This was bicycle-engines most expensive kit aside from the Phantom. I put in the smallest jets that came with the carb to now avail.
They sent the stock NT carb with the kit but with NO way to install to engine. It's like a massive middle finger! Just super annoyed with this entire situation with their site. First I get screwed out of a phantom i paid for (not bicycle-engines fault) and now this. I should have stuck with my cheap ebay kits. They actually ran.
