Gasoline is a great solvent for cleaning engine parts, however while it might feel anathema, try using Everclear. Thank me later. Being nearly 100% ethanol it very easily degreases engine parts, doesn't leave stains (IT doesn't, but keep in mind the grease it just dissolved will be left behind when the ethanol evaporates), doesn't leave a residual smell on everything it touches, and is water soluble so you can just rinse your hands or garage floor if you so desire. As nearly 100% ethanol, it has the added benefit of evaporating quickly and leaving parts squeaky clean. Keep in mind all the hazards of using gasoline still apply -- flammable, dries out rubber components, etc.; it's just way cleaner and easier to work with!

Reminds me of a 1,000 mile (1,600km) trip I did on a 50cc Honda Today scooter back in 2010. It took 12 days and went from Brisbane to Melbourne in Australia. I took the coast roads not the highway. Carried a tent/air mattress/stove and camped along the way. That scooter only has a 10,000km Odometer, but I wound it around the clock at least 6 times (~65,000km). Follow your dreams boys! Cheers from Australia!

Yea they’ve got that floating suspension look to them with the rear of the seat sitting up. Pretty modern looking for being as old as they are. With new paint they’d pretty decent. I’d also probably do as much to the engine as possible to raise that hp up, and it’d be a dope little bike. Of course it’d probably be cheaper at that point to just buy a new bike...

Fifty years ago, going to work required three buses, even though it wasn't very far. So I bought a used Honda scooter, cutting my travel time from an hour to 15 minutes. The scooter had no trouble going the speed limit on city streets, and driving it was a hoot! The office I worked in was very staid, so I didn't know what to expect when my boss asked whose helmet was on the coat rack. He took me into his office and showed me numerous pictures of him on his racing bike! After a year, my finances improved to the point where I could buy a car, so I sold the Honda for the same price as it cost me. What a great experience!

Let me tell you it went like a scalded cat. The only issue is the Yamaha had oil injection but the other carburetor did not so I would have had to premix the fuel in the regular tank to keep running it. It was fun

How badly do you want to go faster? I have an Aero NB50 [probably same motor as in those Gyros; similar vintage] and Honda stuck a completely normal 4T pipe & muffler on that 2T engine. There are zero go-fast parts for those engines, but if you were willing to f@rt around & make your own expansion chamber & rejet the carb, you could get the powerband to shift higher in the rev band so that it could pull the higher revs needed to go faster. You could also play around with the springs & rollers in the CV drive [those are somewhat generic, so you can find heavier rollers on eBay from ScootDr? or similar...] If you're willing to do more serious surgery, you can tear down the engine & widen the exhaust port [Honda was generally pretty conservative w/ their commuter scoots; don't f!ck w/ the intakes or xfers at all, just remove the cork in the breathing from the too narrow ex port is the info I have from back in the day. A proper ex port can be up to 25% of the cylinder circumference, but you won't want to get too radical; having it narrower at top and widest at bottom would probably do best, to allow both good breathing and good ring control...] As for mapping, just use Google maps & have it do routing for a bicycle, & then double check to make certain it didn't put you on any bicycle/ped/equestrian only type paths...

Mix ratio has too much oil. Also, you'll be better off with synthetics that will allow mixing at higher ratios, like 40 of 50 to 1. More power and less smoke. I'd suggest going big bore, but that is more difficult on two strokes, as exhaust and carb tuning are a pain. I have done many big bore kits on Chinese 4 stroke scooters. Lotta bang for the buck with those.

Does it has a catalytic converter? The ratio oil/fuel used to be about 1 liter of oil per 25 liters of gasoline (1:25). Nowadays there may still be a max of 1:50. Special 2-stroke oil is then required for mixing, ordinary motor oil can pollute the engine. Maybe you used to much oil?

Cost is cheap to bump a little more compression with a new piston and rings (shave head down), cut cylinder to 003 of inch. A LITTLE tight, however it allows heat to transfer easier from piston to cylinder wall and will cool easier. It's a trick I learned from Reno Leoni, (head mechanic for Ducati racing) to keep power and cooling while your holding the throttle wide open climbing a hill.

Curious does engine reach red line in top gear, 50cc should do 50mph. Take a fine file and cut about 20° angle on all ports so rings have no sharp edges to go by, finish with fine sand paper. On intake use dremmel and rough up all walls including valve stem area, what this does is great turbulence on walls to catch more fuel to be drawn into combustion chamber. If u see race bikes rev engine and fuel must comes back out intake it's because it travel backwards along cylinder wall of intake, losing that from going into cylinder.

On two stroke bikes, exhaust was usually two part assembly so it can be cleaned from all that oil buildup, but... Older models didn't. I had MZ 250, factory instruction on cleaning the exhaust was, drive at max speed so it all burns out. How do I know? During one late night drive I had fire belching out of that thing, but the next day it started right away. Googled the shizz out so I could find out what in the hell happened. In short, if it still runs it's normal. Enjoy your 50 kph monster.

How does it straighten up after a turn? Does it tilt actively or is it just the mechanics of straightening up that put it back to 90 degrees to the road?

Can you put 2-stroke exhaust filters on them?

After re=watching this I have discovered the reason it did not go faster was because Winston did not scrunch far enough down and lean into the aerodynamics. Still laughing my a... off. Maybe a pizza delivery competition? A spoof on travel docs with a picture of the two of you and the scooters on a mesa at Sunset? Set up a competition between yourselves and neighbors with riding lawnmowers? Put a dry ice compartment on top engine comp. and deliver kid's ice cream? Paint US Postal Emblems on sides and a logo, "Same day service."? Set up your own taco delivery business? A photo of Winston racing home leaning into it has to go on merch or something. Put that on a T-shirt and sign me up.

Riding mopeds in the UK is pretty much par for the course. I once owned a Honda C50 (unrestricted) max speed was 50mph down hill average 30 mph. My mega Journey was travelling 250 miles from Bognor Regis upto Merseyside. It took two days and I had a sore bum at the end of it. Petrol consumption was great 125 mpg. The only sad part was that the engine died 15 miles from home on the return journey. I had it transported home on a car transporter and the whole street cam eout to watch as it was unloaded. Embarrassment factor! The condensor had failed, a £2.00 piece of kit. If I had had a fly puller I could have fixed it myself. Anyway good luck on your trip whether you end up going.

If it smokes so much you clearly have too much oil in the mixture. Or low quality oil

Pre mix plus injected oil, may be one causes of the lack power

Grangran might not be able to walk but now she's got 2 stroke power on her hands Also a trick: In asian countries when traveling far distances at high speed on an underpowered motorcycle, people use medical tubing and a big bottle to siphon/drip water on to the cylinder and head cooling fins. It might rust the heck out of your engine but at least it won't overheat. This is tricks is especially used for motorcycles running reduction ratio sprockets for pulling trailers with a crap ton of cargo because "All the rev and no speed" infamous for causing exhaust manifold cracks.

You should do a trip to Miami Florida As well as it looks like the oil injection system is working because if you even pre Max your oil a little bit with an oil injection system they tend to smoke super crazy so you probably should have drained the 2 stroke tank for the oil injection system so that way you weren't feeding into much to stroke oil and by the way running rich on 2 stroke well in this case actually gave you better performance so your probly going to be looking more at a speed of 28 to 30 miles an hour instead of 34 miles an hour once you are on the proper oil Mix.

You better contact Honda for advice - can you swap out the motors? Can you get more speed out of them safely. Honda might offer some sort of solution; you could sell them as mosquito foggers?

What does CA say about mopeds etc? 50cc in some states require no plate or insurance or drivers license but age 14 and up (CT) China they need an F license or anything higher motorcycle, NZ a car license includes a moped. South Africa a moped is 125cc or smaller n can at times he part of car license or you you have a motorcycle license it’s included. How’s all that work in CA?
