    Suggestion: Shorten the pipe a bit and fabricate a Shark's Tail tip.

    what spark plugs would you recommend for a 110cc engine?

    • @BicycleMotors-ep6pc
      @BicycleMotors-ep6pc 3 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I believe my engine is a 55cc, not sure what your 110cc would call for. What my owner's manual recommended for mine, crossed over to an Autolite #2656 sparkplug. Hope this helped, thank you for watching my video.

  • @captainchaos3053

    Love the nipple on the hub but must ask why? I have cycled over a thousand miles in a single wedk and never needed to regrease the wheel bearings.

    • @BicycleMotors-ep6pc
      @BicycleMotors-ep6pc 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      When I was a kid, I would ride my 20" a lot and several times I had hub bearings get hot and melt some of the ball bearings. I noticed my teenage cousin's antique 26" bike that looked like it was from the 1950s and I realized it had grease fittings on the hubs, guess they built them to last back then. I remember my bike feeling so smooth and free just after freshly cleaning and putting new grease in the hubs so, I started putting grease fittings in my bike hubs. I soon realized I could have that free and smooth feeling in a few seconds with a grease gun, without spending all the time and work to achieve that.

    • @captainchaos3053
      @captainchaos3053 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @BicycleMotors-ep6pc Fair enough. I find that it takes about 7 or 8 thousand miles before I needed to check my hubs. I did 200 miles a day for a week (7 days) when I was working in South Africa to raise money for a charity that provided education for the local children. I destroyed 2 sets of tyres a chain and gears etc plus a set of brakes but everything else was fine.

    • @BicycleMotors-ep6pc
      @BicycleMotors-ep6pc 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I've thought about it, but the bike doesn't have the best breaking capability so, I didn't want too without a brake upgrade. I just didn't get around to it and with other projects going on over the years I just kept riding it as is, thinking I would just build another bike, with disc brakes and jack shaft. It would be good, to get where I'm going faster. There are pros and cons, with more speed there's more chance of pain, when in heavy traffic or getting unwanted attention from the man/authorities. Exabition pedaling mostly keeps you from getting stopped at lower speeds.

      They both have their positives and negatives. These are a bit easier to keep going if you are trying to go longer distances, i.e. you can “recharge” at a gas station, and be on your way in minutes rather than say, an hour or so. The electric versions, however, are quieter - and if ridden reasonably, are less likely to attract the wrong kind of attention.
