    snowblower 2 stroke modifications

    im newer to 2 strokes but i have done a little bit of research. Ill see if i can find a 80cc exhaust.

    How to fix an untrue wheel

    i hope i dont make the rim unusuable trying to hit it like this, a rubber mallet will work for this too? and also should i take the rotor and sprocket off to make it easier to hit the flange, but it would be harder to tell whether it is straight the hub face itself is fine, its just the flange...
