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 🙏

[@kevinAuman1]

Pretty sure that fuel has pre-mix in it and that is why the carb was all gummed up and there was a bunch of oil leaking underneath it...

Yes ! Revlimeter wire .

[@smoothlover073]

Ya that is what i was going to write it was a mod that most people on scooters do to get more speed and have a but more fun out of there scooters. For him to say that the green wire was the problem was wrong it was that the carb was dirty and not getting enough fuel if any to the engine but you did put it back to stock if you like having it go a minimum speed. Put that green wire back the way it was and you will have more fun with it

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 👌👌

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.

[@titletownclowns1545]

If you plan on keeping it, replace the fuel lines as they are a very inferior chinese rubber and will deteriorate, put a petcock on the fuel tank as the vacuum valve tends to leak and not open all the time. The electric choke (enrichment needle) tends to seize in the bore keeping the choke to engage, a Q-tip rubbed on the inside and the brass ferrule is good but a manual choke is best. Pops

[@ZafiraSteve]

If you watch the upload back. The fuel lines are usa made items

[@titletownclowns1545]

@@ZafiraSteve They look like every fuel line I changed on every GY6 (50cc-150cc) go kart, moped, and mini-quad, buuuut I could be wrong. I use blue or green fuel lines so you can glance at them and know they were changed, but you may be right I didn't look that closely. The chinese lines may say fuel but they are vacuum lines. BTW You have some really cool late 80's-90's street bikes, those remind me of a better era of unrestricted (if you knew how) speed. Some of those bikes never made it to U.S. shores but the few came from Canada. Pops

[@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.

[@daviddicks35]

[@jasonlawrence6209]

I have owned 3 mopeds in my life and loved them all. People laughed at me while I drove them but when u tell 100mpg they dont. $$$$

[@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]

[@jarikinnunen1718]

To check the condition of the engine, first check the ignition and then the fuel to the intake manifold. If it starts, then carburetor cleaning. The idle jet may be clogged.

[@jseden]

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.

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.

I just sold it recently for $400 (at list price lol) which I thought high with no title and an old moped but I guess there is a huge market for it in Milwaukee.

[@darrenmay2010]

The wire had been cut because the previous owner did the usual trick of trying to un-restrict the moped to make it faster, have you checked the spindle on the carburetor diaphragm to see what groove the cir-clip is on? if the wire is cut and the cir-clip for the spindle is on the middle one watch how much faster it does. by cutting the wire it stops sending the RMP message to the CDI and thinks it has no revs or idle, this causes the bike to rev higher or more freely, by changing the cir-clip on the diaphragm it allows more fuel through. it would be good to see you try this in one of your videos. have fun and great channel
