ill get pics later. ii got it running today but i had to cut the muffler off because its packed tight with carbon. i took it out and i dont know if the engine was modified or what because i hit the gas and it stood straight up on the rear wheel. i noticed the big spring in the middle of the clutch is yellow. (not sure if this means anything) the other thing is it tops out at like 20mph. feels like a gearing issue because the engine is racing. any ideas? variator weights worn?whats up?.

i removed the rear crankcase cover and revved the bike on the stand and the belt visably moves up and down on the clutch, which means the variator is working right? yet, the engine races and it only goes like 15-20mph. once again any ideas?

anyway here are some pics.

well i tried the elite today and now it has top end. so, i dont know what the * happened. maby the weights stuck or something. it has a top speed of around 32 (stock) i still have to get a bigger jet. the thing is it runs faster without an airbox. i have never seen that type of carb do that. maby because it is de-restricted. i will get a new jet and see what it does. i cant even fathem one of these things supped up. its hard to keep the front wheel on the ground now.

9g weights on a 50cc?? too heavy.. 7g is considered heavy for my vento. ur top end should be good, but acceleration + midrange must not be too great..?

thats weird because the stock oko variator weights (if u want to call that stock) are 9 grams. u have the oko right? i was thinking about getting that. doesnt really matter if i lose low end because its hard to keep the wheel on the ground.(not that thats a bad thing)

my elite did about 25-30. with the 7 grams i only did like 33 and with the 9g i really dont know how fast it does. lol

try using 3-7gr and 3-9gr weights this way you get bottom & top end, i also find that factory honda weights "aero" combined with malossi last the longest before getting flat spots and i also file down the ramp edges.
