Saw this last year for the first time. I knew I had to see it again this season. And next season, and so on. Thanks for a new tradition that is really special.

On a 4 stroke, a modified pipe isn't going to change the performance much .😊

Unless the stock pipe is very restricted , which it is. This video is comparing 2 aftermarket pipes in the interest of sound quality. An aftermarket pipe is an improvement over the stock. Its just a matter of which one you like the sound of.

I keep coming back to this -- it is one of my favorite layouts, and a big inspiration for me to add a hint of switching to my own layouts. You have excellent taste in O-scale! (not to mention the arcade too 😁)

@yeksun 4 күн бұрын

Thanks ! Im glad you like it. I must say that was probably my favorite layout. Switching is fun . I havent put up a layout in a couple years . I do miss it but its a ton of work as you know. perhaps next year. The arcade stuff is fun too. There is no shortage of hobbies. Just not enough time. Thanks again , Rich

Kudos to you Yeksun for keeping your mistake and fix in your video, you add credibility to your video by doing that. I am sure you have inspired many shade tree mechanics to complete this and other modifications to their bike, that they would have been too intimidated to complete before watching your video.

@@yeksun thanks for replying, I know it’s been a couple years since the video. You had upgraded the carb before you did the big bore kit. You said it was a good upgrade. So it made the bike faster? How much? What was the best bang for the time and money? I just bought one stock and I want to make it faster after watching your video. Great video man.

@yeksun 3 ай бұрын

@@gabrielmarin6671 I would say if I could only do one mod it would be the carb. I put one on a friends stock bike and it made a nice improvement. But for a little extra you can do a cheap exhaust . also a 17 tooth sprocket is an easy upgrade to get more top speed. See the links for the parts I used on my setup before this one.

So how do you like the reliability of that bike is it is it worth buying I'm looking to put some Twisted ape hangers on it it's longer seat take the back rack off lower it High Performance Engine Parts on it or maybe even a 190 or a 212 I don't know but I like what you're doing so I'd like to know exactly is it worth it or should I buy something else I would like four different kind of scooters and I owned Vespa and I used to own a trail 90 on a 50 frame I rode I rode poop mopeds Thomas mopeds I used to work on mopeds and scooters but I just wanted to know is it is it reliable and is it worth it

@yeksun 3 ай бұрын

Is it as reliable as a honda or kawasaki? No way but is it a basket case ? not at all. You will need to be able to fix little things . Mostly things rattling and falling off . In stock form I would imagine its more reliable but since Ive changed some things you never know whats going to happen . The swingarm is a known problem. No big deal. I still jump on it and ride 80 miles no problem. If you like the style Id say buy it.

The Ice Bear Champion order form offers a digital speedo and an aluminum swing arm for $99; recommend? Prior to this issue, had you noticed any lateral play at the swing arm? I ask because I watched another enthusiast catch some play back there and two accommodating washers resolved the issue on the Amigo (for much more money).

@yeksun 4 ай бұрын

for $99 thats a good value. I initially had some play . It felt trashy. I put in new delrin bushings which is the correct fix.Im not sold on the washer idea. But whatever. I have a video on the bushings also.

Your video is appreciated! Your rear shocks caught my eye; the oe Little Bear shocks rattle from the start, other Honda ct70 clone owners have remarked. Where did you purchase the rear shocks? Will the VM26 carb work on the 125cc motor?

I got them from amazon www.amazon.com/Newsmarts-Adjustable-Motorbike-Absorbers-Universal/dp/B07LCMBKK3/ref=sr_1_9? The VM26 is a beautiful carb for the 125cc I like the shocks rides much nicer, Double check the length. Im not sure these are the EXACT ones.

@@yeksun Thanks! I have looked at the order form on the Ice Bear Champion and for $99 they offer an aluminum swingarm and digital speedo. Did you mention a shortage of success finding aluminum swingarm replacement, or they were out-of-stock when you bought your Little Bear? Carb - I believe you though I'm hearing 'Nibbi' is popular. I'm kind of struggling to imagine 60 mph on a Honda CT70 at my age (69). This bike is for two grandsons, pending permission from their mom and dad.

@@horsewnoname872 I couldnt find an aluminum one when I needed it . I guess they are available now. There are lots of places online to buy these ice bears. I got mine from Cajun maddogs.

@Yeksun Any follow up on this? How is it holding up? I bought Tron first batch. Been playing carefully. I mean very carefully since then and mine just fractured. Applied your fix and ordered a new L/R replacement set from A1up. Thanks for the vid!

@yeksun 6 ай бұрын

Thanks for the comment. Mine is still holding up as of June 2024. Im glad to hear you did the fix. I would do it to your new one as well . Overall I think Tron is pretty easy on the joy stick EXCEPT for the light cycle board. That is the true test of these sticks. Good luck.

@Marcade2 6 ай бұрын

@@yeksun yup!! The Light Cycle board got me. I used the clear weld so I may do a stress test on my original controller to see if it will break entirely. You know, just heavy handed play. Nothing too crazy. I’ll post back if it breaks. I doubt it will. I also have a new micro switch coming. I hold #1 on DOT and the hand is tired after a long bout with Sark. An upgrade on the switch should help. I also took an xacto blade to the trigger seam and edges, making it baby smooth. I did notice wear on the trigger to switch contact area. I may need to mod that area to build it back up to keep the throw as short as possible. Thanks for the reply.

@Marcade2 4 ай бұрын

Update: your video set me on another level of gameplay. So for that, I have to thank you first and foremost. Props to you, Sir! Arcade1up sent me a complete controller assembly, base and all. Have I used it? NO! Because your tutorial is genius! I not only replaced the trigger switch. I replaced all switches in the base too. It plays like a dream now. So much so, I posted 999,900 on Discs of Tron, securing that top score. No more hand cramps during long plays. All thanks to you! I’ve strong armed the controller several times during play and the existing crack has not budged. This fix is legit. Happy gaming!
