    1981 Sears Puddle Jumper - AKA "TETANUS 2.0"

    So far its been great for a cheater cam. It was cheap and easy to install. Next motor will have much more cam though, with stainless valves and automotive style retainers and keepers with a 14cc GX160 head and roller rockers and flat slide carb.

    FMF silencer on 212cc predator?

    FMF silencer on 212cc predator?

    I was running a universal motorcycle muffler on mine I got off eBay for like $15. I loved the way it made it sound. Only reason took it off is it got in the way of my new fender and shocks. S trying to find another option to fit. Quieted it down and seemed to add power to the bike.
