Ground anchors work well when bolted to a wall or a long length of heavy chain concreted into the ground, I'd also fit an alarm to it. Leave the...
Is your engine not a 152qmb ? I thought the gy6 was a 125?
Probably a early non rolling nut engine? Need to see photos of it. Use a Malossi secondary gear kit or a early 180 runner gear set!
I'd put it on the back of the scooter just behind the seat , bolted to the frame!!
You have a buyer in me if the price is right!
They only made two types of engine as far as I'm aware, you have the early type (small drum). The only way you'll know is if you strip it down, if...
13" are 130/60-13" front/back, 12" are 120/70-12" front, 130/70-12" rear.
Have a look at the tread "Typhoon with bigger wheels".
Not sure if there is enough room on the rear, don't fit a 140 on the front. I have Typhoons with 12 and 13" wheels and there fine, There's not...
If you intend stripping the engine anyway you have nothing to lose, just measure the diameter of the crank flywheels when it's in bits ! I know...
I have that engine in one of my Typhoon's, mine is an x reg 2000 but that engine, non rolling nut small drum. I'm 99.9% sure it will be ok. If...
Check to see that the piston does,nt come out the top of the barrel (150cc), the 125 head will work but with a lot more compression, you could try...
Hi, no not really, I've been trying to sort out the running problem. You know when an engine does'nt run as you know it should and you can't put...
It's the flywheels that catch on early engines (diameter), your's should be ok. Top racing cranks are worth looking at, I've used them with no...
I had a Ape for a while, I got it cheap rebuilt the engine, MOT'ED it and got rid cos it was so slow (100+cc barrel) and dangerous, 25mph top's...
There's no problem with cranks, the carb uses a 6mm main jet (86 std) and you'll need at least a 90-92 jet using the std airbox (yes they work...
It is strange but yes, that's how to bleed them, glad you got it sorted.
I personally would buy a s/h SYM or Kymco 125 for work and keep the Scomardi for the weekends, both are brilliant and would do that mileage with ease.
Would a 80cc be anygood to you?
Yes, sometimes the slave cylinder plunger does'nt return enough for the fluid to go through, it works for me !
