Bob the NRG50

well here is my new pride and joy
06 plate, 9.5k on the clock, 5 months tax and test, new exhaust (still got the uprated jets in from the rusted out leo vince) £300. BARGAIN








hes got a few scrapes, needs a new indicator lense, rear light and mirror. got the mirror and rear light on the way, the indicator can wait.

but on the whole a tidy machine, i cant decide whether to keep the standard exhaust and swap to standard jets. or weld up and tidy up the leo vince zx
also at the moment ive no idea if its been derestricted or not (will tell once i get it out on the open road) but im not overly bothered as ill be riding it with my full car licence so 30mph restricted by law

 

Tidy ped
Don't think the fuzz are to bothered about derestricted peds tbh, mines registered as 50 but has a 70s kit in it, stage 6 exhaust and malossi carb, goes off the clock.
Sometimes it's safer to have a ped, for those times you have no other option but to speed up! As long as your not a prat they won't pull you

 

Yeah I am secretly hoping it will do more. Just incase its needed

 

Stick a 70s kit in it, upjet the carb if needed, new air filter, do all the rollers etc and you'll go like the wind

 

Lol and probably fall off. I may one day go bigger. But for now the 50 should do the job. If I want fast ill just get in the car

 

You won't fall off, and if you want fast, you should do that to your ped, mine beats a lot of cars off the line, and then they take a while to catch up

 

It's all about power to weight ratio, mines rapid as fuck lmao, gets over the clock pretty fast

 

My 1.8 monster would trash it

 

Drag race, I doubt it haha, I've had loads of cars try and fail all I gotta do is put my head down, pull the throttle back and it's off

 

If we did race, I bet you'd get stuck behind loads of cars at traffic lights < that's another advantage haha

 

Haha. Im not getting caught up in a rant


id catch ya before the next set

 

Then stuck in the set after, and before you know it, I'm over the line hahaha
Seriously tho, you'll have a lotta fun on bob, people don't realise until they have one

 

Ye. Got a few mates with 125s so will ride with them

 

yay, sorted out access to my back yard


straight up

 

Hahaha mines locked up under a shelter

 

gotta go with what ive got unfortunatly. i was abotu to give up with keeping it in the yard, but manged to find some wood wide enough to make it easy

 

One of this planks would of been wide enough surely?

 

Or is that one plank lol, has a line down the middle

 

currently its one plank that was chopped in half and screwed next to each other
so yeah two planks.
I had originally planned on using one. and it was wide enough, but very easy to miss and pop off the side of it. now i dont even have to think as i run the bike up it

 

right, as im new to all this 2 stroke crap and ive no manual

lets talk oil

is it jsut a case of keeping the oil res topped up? when the oil light comes on on the 'dash' how long have i got to top it up? and do i need to adjust anything?

cheers and sorry for the noob question
