Cuki, you've already been told you'd need basically a 2 stroke expert tuner to do the port correction if you use a long stroke crank. That is a...
Yeah, I'm reckoning that's the problem Pain in the ass to set it up to tick over too, but also if it's burning off all the oil it wont be running...
Drive belt?
So I just rebuilt my Piaggio typhoon with a 172 kit, 25mm carb, scorpion, other tuning parts. 45 idle jet, 105 main, AQ266, D24 needle (Top clip)....

Rear drum brake does next to nothing over 10mph (unless it just locks up like mine used to, then it's just dangerous) I confidently use only my...
Check VE UK for stem and bars. if you find some you like give me a shout and ill see if we can sort out something :)
With the 55mm crank your bike would be a 183, use a 1.5mm base plate and drop the ports 3mm and it will be fine.

ally kits run alot cooler and require very little running in. Iron kits are more likely to seize because they get hotter, but you can rebore an...
