Wow! Black frame... I really like that!

Great work so far man; I'm looking forward to following your build. The parts you have on order will definitely help your acceleration and top speed.

I've been in love :love: with the 2nd gen Honda Aero 50 since I first saw one around 1986. I can remember ...

Greetings:

The wild card is the modded exhaust. Hard to predict jetting needs for a one-off pipe. If you go from stock to Pod filter, an 85 at least and maybe an 88. If the new pipe runs very high revs, and the vario is tuned to allow them, then I'd start with a 90 and downjet if it's too rich ...

I figured it's time to start a build thread on my scoot since I decided to go ahead and strip it down to the frame. Here she was as purchased. It ran, but I could only manage 27mph out of it :*:

I need some help on where to start with this thing. It's got a stock AF05E. I'll be keeping the stock bore & carb, but I'll be running a modified pocket bike exhaust and a pod filter. What jet sizes would you guys recommend?

Just a little update. The scoot does have a new petcock in it, so I don't think that's my issue. Spark is good, so I'm leaning towards the carb still. It looked fairly clean, but I sprayed everything down with carb cleaner anyway. I've decided to see what I can squeeze out of the stock displacement ...

To see 50 or more, a big block will be required. Ask RedEftPerformance about a Malossi 47mm/65cc to start off.

Thanks! I'll check into that. Any carb recommendations? Looks like that is #1 on my list since my stocker is acting up.

If you're too lazy... or couldn't find it. ;)
Here's the link to the manuals.

nice ruckus...
Did you sell it? :(
Thanks man, downloaded that a couple days ago. I sold the Ruck back in January so I could have some more plane rental monies. That was ...

Hey everybody, my name's Brad. Been lurking around here over the past few days and decided to join. I've owned 30 or so bigger bikes over the years, but only 2 scoots. The first being a Ruckus. Anyway, I picked up a rough, but running '87 Aero 50 the other day. I mainly got it as a beater to get ...
