Saving Thousands On Gas With This Scrap Pile Moped (100MPG)

Here is the plastic saver I used in the video. It works pretty well! Motul plastic shine solution: amzn.to/38lWmxe

[@kevinAuman1]

Man I had one almost exactly like this but mine was a 125cc if I remember correctly and she would do 80mph wound right out but it wasn't very safe to do lol because at that speed everything shook and vibrated quite violently on it but it'd do 65mph highway speeds just fine and had some "get-up-n-go" to her for a moped I could grab the front brake, stand up then pin itt and shed sit still and spin the back tire just a rolling smoke and once it got going I could sit back down and it's stay spinning then id let off the brake and take off doing a rolling burnout for like 10ft I loved that lil thing it was like a fat girl- fun as hell to ride but ya didn't want your friends to catch ya on it hahahaha then in Dec of 2008 when we had no snow for a week straight I took it out for a rip around town and had a 73yr old man pull out in front of me and stop and I was doing around 45-50mph couldn't stop but had both wheels locked right up till I t-bones his car which landed me in the hospital for 3 n half months because I shoved 4 ribs through my thoracic aorta (heart) and after multiple surgeries they finally put me back together and my wrist has titanium plates and bolts in it, missing half the muscle of my lower left leg and took me over a year to learn to walk again... thankfully I was able to get a lawyer and unfortunately they didn't fight real hard for me so I ended up getting 90k settlement of which I got 54k sucks because I can't walk or stand for very long and it completely changed how I live my life... I guess I'm just grateful to be alive 🙏

[@MaNNeRz91]

When you solder you need to get heat in the wires so that it acts like a wick to the molten solder. It will soak it up and have a much stronger connection... It doesn't matter too much in that scenario but that's how soldering should be done 👌👌

[@JoseARomo-qv5fk]

It definitely looked like the the iron wasn't up to temp for that solder. He should also work on those joints

[@martinpruckl8091]

Perfect Explanation Sir !!

[@owen368]

Iron with larger size bit would have help it looked a little small to me and your correct, tin the iron, heat joint and apply solder.

[@jhoughjr1]

correct. I have a BS EE and have done a lot of soldering. I can say if your iron doesnt have temperature control, its a hunk of junk. Doesnt have to be expensive to be goodm even my small all in one inline 65W iron for 20 bucks on amazon works well once broken in.

[@campbellpaul]

Very practical. Aside from great economy it's a very visible yellow... and smaller wheels have quicker rebound on the bumps than the larger wheel setups... I personally use dielectric bulb grease and a toothbrush to revive my plastics and rubber components... just wipe it all off to avoid dust clinging to it.

These will run fine if you take care of them. I’ve put well over 10k km on a couple examples and they still ran fine when I sold em. Yes, that dash reads in km. These things generally get a bad rep over little things going wrong, then it stops running and the owner doesn’t know what to do.. it’s almost always something simple and cheap. I rode these things exclusively for several years.. fixed up a couple heaps in that time, rebuilt a couple engines, ect. Just be sure it’s not running too hot.. I disintegrated a piston that way once. I still daily two wheelers, it’s just a Honda 250 at The moment. Also, that is a scooter. Mopeds have pedals. No peds= not moped. There’s a ton of info on these things and easy mods/upgrades if you do a little googling.

[@Xtrmn8r123321]

I just bought a PCC Amor 50 from a guy who put a 70cc BBK on it. The carb was crappy, so I bought a new one(20mm), along with a new variator (6.5g rollers) and belt, and it is amazing now. Takes off like a car and can climb hills at 35mph. I think the full throttle jet needs attention though. Idles great, and then great low end power, but full throttle doesn't have any more power than say 1/2 throttle.. I will pull my spark plug to see which way it needs to be tuned. Timely video for sure. I got mine to make deliveries because 13mpg sucks...

[@andrewwitham5405]

There is usually a small spacer between the two halves of the variator (front pulley). It stops the two halves closing fully up and serves as a top speed restricter by limiting the effective “high”speed gearing. Remove it and you will have taller gearing and faster top speed. Low speed take off from a standstill is unaffected.

[@bevis226]

Yep remove the spacer and put a cheap 24mm? Mikuni clone carb off of amazon it and it will do 70mph tops with a 150lb rider on a flat road. My POS 50cc scooter rips lol. Performance Exhaust helps a good bit as well. Remove the EGR restricted exhaust. My next upgrade is 100cc big bore kit. It needs more bottom end torque. It's still pretty darn slow going up hills.

[@Fredjoe5]

The 3 most common methods of restriction are the variator, the CDI, and also the exhaust. Many times a small restrictor is placed in the exhaust where the manifold bolts to the muffler. It can either be simply placed in there, or is sometimes tack welded in place. Removing that gives the full performance.

[@chrispalmer9838]

My cheap Grom gets 135 mpg and still enough for left in the tank to get you to a fill up point, and that mpg comes with me ragging it everywhere with aggressive breaking.

[@richarddutton9018]

[@davidg.5076]

As soon as I looked at this scooter, I thought get the old crappy gas out of it before even turning it over. And check to see if there is any oil in it. Those were my first two initial thoughts. The green wire is the rpm restrictor wire, to solder it together had nothing to do with firing this thing up. The spark was uneven on the first check for spark, because the plug wasn't grounded well enough. If the wrong wire had been cut, there would be no spark at all. My own scooter has two restrictors, one for MPH, that cuts the RPM back to 6800 @ 28 mph and if the wind is right, the road is right, you might hit 30. The second actually has a plug connection to be about to remove the cv cover, that limits max rpm to 7200. Its easy to pull out the wire at the cdi, and it can be pushed back in, no damage done. Obviously, unplug the second. This lets the thing free rev to over 9000 rpm, though in riding the bike, it rarely hits 8000, It hovers a lot around 7200 or even less, but the ability to rev lets the cvt close up, then you can pull the throttle back, is why. It hits 8000 or 8200 on long down hill wot. Just riding around town, there is more pull either way, but isn't much difference in power, if to just pull the wire at the cdi or to pull both restrictor wires. But in more open road riding is where the second disconnect is noticed. It can hit near 40 this way. However I have not as yet touched the cvt. This bike I've owned for less than a year, it's barely getting broken in. Glad you got it running, at least !!
