    Low CFM carb

    That carb is widely used on motorcycles with an elevated tank ,cannot see how that is the problem .On some scooters ,the tank might be 2ft above the carb .

    How do you paint a mini bike?

    not sure what your circumstances are ,but you can get the powder coat re done if you wish .Many spray paints do not do well with fuel and also scratch easily .

    Obituaries outnumber new members.

It’s clearly been too long so everybody should play Barry White tunes ,pour a little wine ,pop a Viagra and start making babies right away ,it is your duty to the hobby ,so in a dozen years we will have peeps to...

    Memories of 2 Stroke Kawasaki Triples

    I have played with several of them in all flavours in the late 70’s early 80’s ,lots of fun for a high school kid ,lending it to a friend is seriously not recommended , working after school at a multi-line bike and foreign car dealership was a priceless education in weird and wonderful...

    Looking for suggestions/advice on kids 4 wheeler.

    I would hate to see them riding a yard cart jiggling the crap out of themselves without suspension ,their backs and other body parts probably won’t like it as they age ,hands down they get quads and a helmet .

    Mini bike questions about suspension

    Anything is possible if you want to fab something up ,many motorcycles were built and ridden at highway speeds without rear suspension ,and many mini bikes were built and ridden without any suspension at all at the speeds you are asking about .

    General Consensus on Suzuki RV125 two stroke

    Do you know what colour it is ? Can probably figure out the year easy enough from that but it really doesn’t matter on the 125 as they are all the same ,at least with the 2 smokers .

    General Consensus on Suzuki RV125 two stroke

    Parts are pretty easy to get ,still lots available at the local Suzuki dealership ,the tires are the hardest to come across but now there are many street legal UTV and ATV tires so you can find something suitable .The engine was used in other more popular models so that’s why it’s fairly easy to...

    Finishing touches on a 35 year old project

    Years ago ,I loved watching American Chopper ,No interest in the choppers ,but I loved that those guys were building custom choppers with $60.00 Dewalt angle grinders and a mig welder .Of course they ended up with the latest and greatest ,but they were using virtually nothing when the show first...
