    Old School race motor questions

    Sunday funday shot glass. I forgot about 2 strokes needing tuned pipes specific to the motor. I'll have to research it a bit. Can I damage my motor from running a random pipe like this one?

    Old School race motor questions

    I found a old gem pipe to pair with the motor. Would have to go on a kart with this exhaust and I have a shifter kart free laying around so that the new path lol. Just needing advice on the best way to make this nice. My thought was to cut the pipe at the weld on the cap end and go from there...

    Lol. It ended up being my valve cover not having enough clearance. I ended up buying a sweet custom engraved billet aluminum one. Well first I had a paul's karts one but it fell off one night on the highway and I found it all smashed up the following morning. But I'll add a pick off the new one...

    What's up everyone. Just picked up this motor and I don't know much about it. Any info would be awsome. Needs exhaust and clutch. Also I don't see any holes for the pull start. I want to use it for a mini bike. Thx

    Stage 1?

    Pull off the whole piece that has the pull start to uncover the flywheel. See if its aluminum or cast iron. If its aluminum I would open the case to see if there is a billet aluminum rod. Also upgraded valve springs are pretty common.

    Valve locks/keepers for 5.5mm valve stems.

    So the ebay seller ended up sending me a keeper for free. Now I am realizing the stock rockers are not going to work lol (they keep falling off the valve and rests on the retainer) so I ordered a pair of the HD champions. So close to riding again.

    Took chance on cheep parts

    I paid with PayPal so shouldn't be a issue. but how can this place even be eligible for paypal If it's so widely known that they scam?
