Fishfiles 20,145 Posted October 30, 2022 finally finish fabricating the front and rear fenders. Started with a front and rear Yamaha motorcycle fender. Last problem to solve is that it idles high and I have not figured out yet , how to get it to idle down any more. It has a carb upgrade that was supplied as a motor upgrade from the engine supplier 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Wilson_™ 6,563 Posted October 30, 2022 (edited) I gather you've already contacted the engine supplyer..... On that high idol issue ? Seems like if they supplied it as an up grade they would have done the research to make sure it was a good match....

Bikeberry supplied the engine kit , which came with the stock carb and twist throttle and a second carb , never contacted them about the idol issue , but every time I contacted them on the many other issues I encountered along the way , they were no help ---- my guess is the air intake tube could be a problem by leaking or restricting air , or the throttle cable length isn't right and it won't let it return all the way or maybe the stock head ---- got to remember this is 100% China junk This is the engine kit I have pictured below , you can see it comes with two carbs , one carb is on the engine the other in the pic , the upgrade carb is a bigger carb ------- I couldn't use the high performance head in the pic with out doing some cutting and machine work to it , as it hit the frame , the pic shows the high performance head on the engine and another one in the pic , I have a totally different stock head on the engine that is not pictured 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
