    Has anyone here installed a mikuni on their MB 200?

    At the moment, I'm mostly having trouble with the throttle cable. If you've done this, what did you do? Did you use the stock cable? Did you purchase a new one? Can you use a standard screw cable clamp under the slide? Did you solder a ball on? How did you route the cable to a vertical position...

    What do I need to do to my 212 carb? Wont run with choke off, stage 1 kit installed

    This is a Baja Heat with a mechanically stock 212 hemi & TAV-2. I swapped in a 35 jet & an Etube from OMBW, an ARC/RLV exhaust & filter/adapter w/ clutch lever bracket. It won't idle with the choke fully open & part throttle is kind of sputtering. I'm sure I have an idle circuit issue...

    I installed a predator 212 on a go kart project I'm working on and I got a stage one upgrade kit which includes 36 & 37 jets and a larger emulsion tube, when I installed the air filter kit it was so lean it wouldn't start so i swapped in the 36 jet and it ran good, then I swapped in the larger...

    1966 Taco 44

    Hey OldMiniBikes, Last Sunday i picked up a 1966 Taco 44 mini bike in somewhat okay - bad shape. It had a 5hp Tec on it that did not run. There was a substantial hole in the rear of the frame, the swinging arm suspension was welded in place, and also bolted. Every bearing on the bike was original and...

    clutch stuck on shaft

    Ok guys, I need some guidance here. Now this is my first ever mini bike so be gentle lol. Replaced the original engine with a 79cc Predator, also bought a new centrifugal clutch to fit as it was a 5/8 instead of 3/4. Now the original clutch slid right off no problem, but I think the new one is...

    Building this bike for ME ! Hope I can get it done before someone wants to buy it. Started with a frame that needed some work. Needed the neck cut off and a new motor plate was added. The frame is painted Satin Black. I had a swing arm but it was the wrong one for the bike so I modified it to...

    Aspera HT25 motor needs to run!

    I have a 1968 Fantic Broncco Tx-3 with the Aspera motor. The motor turns easily and I think nothing is really wrong with it other than it has sat for nearly 20 years. I've cleaned it up, strip off the paint, installed a kit in the carb and also installed new coil, etc. I really need to find...

    The factory installed "side exhaust" thread

    I've seen it mentioned from time time that side exhaust engines were not used on mini bikes, I in fact believed that up until a few years ago when I was researching a particular bike and was doing more than just quickly scanning over brochures or advertisement that someone had taken the time to...

    Ok so I finally got my replacement rocker stud in that I broke, I set the motor @ TDC installed the 18lb springs and set the lash at .002 intake and .003 exhaust which I will admit is the smallest valve lash I've ever seen.
