Thanks everyone.
Just figured it out. (after 3 weeks).
The compresson is low when it warms up. (down to 120psi)
I was checking compresson when the engine was cold.
checked a know good bike with the same engine and he had 140 psi.
Time for a new piston!!!!

Thanks again for the help.

24 vs 28

Just wanted to ask the experts. how much differance is there in a 24mm carb and a 28mm carb? This would be on a 72cc honda motor. Looking at top end speed. how much faster would it be?

Thanks in advance

mirror drag

Just wondering if mirrors have that much drag. A buddy of mine took off his mirrors and is now able to pass me. (top speed). I used to edge him when he had mirrors. Is there any low drag mirrors?

I ride to work every day to town so I am tring to keep the noise down. (running a air box) I was thinking of the bigger carb and bore, but kinda worried about a louder pipe. Would the pipe make a big difference?

Thanks again
