    Mikuni Carb/fuel delivery issue

    Hi, I have a mikuni 22 that I'm having some problems with. When I try to feed it fuel, fuel doesn't even go down the line into the carb. But the weird thing is, that when the carb is attached to the manifold it does this, but when it's off, it flows perfectly fine. I tried cleaning it twice...

    HS50 new carb issue no start

    I bought a new carb off ebay for my HS50 build. It doesn't seem to be getting gas to the spark plug as the plug is bone dry when I pull it. The plug has spark and will pop the engine over if I give it a shot of starter fluid. I began with backing out the carb adjustment screws one full turn from...

    predator bog issue

    I'm having an issue where at 3/4 - full throttle the engine is bogging down. Any ideas what it could be? I have a predator 212, high flow air filter, 37 jets. The engine only has about 5 hours on it. Thanks

    NOS Azusa Spinner Wheels (slight issue)

    These NOS wheels are in great shape, but the valve stem holes don't line up. I was hoping I could swap the halves and they'd be fine, but it didn't work out that way. $100 plus shipping, or I can deliver to Windber

    Carb / throttle linkage issue, could use some guidance!

    So I got the CnC Bored Box Stock Carb from OldMiniBikes along with a filter kit and a few other items for my non-hemi Predator 212. After mounting the new carb, I noticed the throttle rod, while in a 'resting' position, is pulling the carb wide open: Then I realized the original stock...

    Spark plug piston clearance issue

    Howdy all, Just checking to see if this is common or not. I am building a gx200 clone. Had .065 taken off the head, chamber measures 15cc. However, it was obvious when I was cc'ing the head, the stock Chinese spark plug was protruding quite a bit below the deck of the head, about .045. I...

    DB30 fork zero offset issue

    Hi there. I've been thinking of getting a used Baja DB30 or monster moto mini bike but I always disliked the way these bikes handled in the turns and at high speed. I think it's to do with the fact that the front fork has no offset between the fork tubes and the centre of the steering axis...

    Hi Guys, I have a question regarding vibration. When I get on the bike and gas it, it tends to vibrate up front until it smooths out. Has anyone experienced this, and could it be as simple as a wheel, or wheels being out of balance....or a a tire out of round. I'm just trying to apply my...
