Good to know thank you brother I’ve never looked it up good information though Those letters don’t match up with what it is besides the exhaust valve that’s an interesting choice in letters
I have done a few mods on my gy6 50cc, I have swapped the bottom end to an 80cc with stock 50cc ported heads I take and exhaust. Took three rollers out and put a washer under the needle jet. Got me 44mph lmk if there’s any free mods that I could do that I missed. Btw great video👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
why keep stock 50 head with an 80 bottom end? Just curious. I would think just finishing that top end with 69 valves or stock and a A9 cam would easily add so much power with the supporting mods of course.
Yes the bottom end was a do or part from someone. Just utilizing what I have and see if power could improve through mostly stock parts. I live in Hawaii cost of living is already high. Alohaz Braddah 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Beside that's, you have to change carburator broth to see a difference. Cause A9 allow you to get more air into the combustion chamber, so more air, more gas, better explosion, better explosion mean, more power
Bruh😂😂 and once you tighten the chain tensioner and the spring engages the little metal piece that presses against the chain guide you don’t even have to have the spring and nut in it it’s already engaged you have to disengage the little lock before reinstalling if you remember
This was quite old I ended up buying a new chain tensioner off vmc Chinese parts.com it came in one week but duct tape to do the trick for a week 😂 I will continue to make more the build is not done I’ve made recent videos in the past month and it keeps going
I am fairly new to your channel I like the way you do things do you happen to have A video on how to put the piston, rings and a 80 cc head on pony 50 also what carburetor can I buy on Amazon? Thanks man
@@paultoomey7016 I do not when I got my kit it came with them installed but I do know how to do them now, But there are plenty of other videos on TH-cam explaining how to do so with this new bike I’m buying when I big bore it that’s a good idea to include. www.amazon.com/Glixal-ATMT1-073-1-Carburetor-Electric-Chinese/dp/B01EWHUHMM/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?crid=3840ZZ7V7QYJM&keywords=glixal+20mm+carburetor&qid=1653354129&sprefix=glixal+20mm+carburetor%2Caps%2C126&sr=8-1 same one I use currently still
I watched your video over and over . I only ask because I have a lot of gy6 parts and the cam you showed with the CX on it is that the new cam.? Because I have one and it looks way better than the other ones I have.
Thank you I appreciate that man I’m glad I could help but no the one of the CX on it is the stock shaft. Yes the upgraded camshaft physically looks better you will be able to see a difference between the two the spacing in between the lobes is larger as well
When you run it does it have a popping sound almost like popcorn from the exhaust? I put a big bore kit along with the a-9 cam I put lighter cvt rollers and upgraded the final drive gear I get 56-60 mph but I don't like the popping sound from the exhaust.
No no popping, That sound that you’re hearing is leftover gas in the header igniting causing it to backfire, Indicating that you’re running rich because there’s leftover fuel burning away and popping. Try one smaller jet size and then check your plug to see what it reads and see if it goes away
Yeah it’s not necessary to drain the oil and takeoff the plastic housing I was taking everything apart to show what’s going on and I need to change my oil at that point in time

Put a 85ish main jet in and an open air filter. It just has fired up. Now I have to glue all those broken plastic covers together to complete the scooter.

@@fredericklein9784 You good bro! Sounds like you got it all figured out. I've been told... Anywhere from 50-200 miles for a good break in period. Make sure to change the oil a lot. Till you get above a few hundred miles
I did not, To this day I still do not either and I have done much much more work to this bike in this video. It is fully built at this point no head gasket issues, but I do a lot of maintenance a lot more than I would like too lol But it’s worth it
you don't have to take the intake and the plastic around the motor off...the only thing i do is find top dead center...and just remove the valve cover and timing chain tensioner and rocker arm...i have been working on the gy6 motors for 11 years...
I know I know I did a lot of extra stuff for no reason this was last year and since then I have built many motors since then I don’t know why I did all that it is what it is

Nice vid very easy to understand an I had one question I'm about to swap my head's to put the bore kit in it do you have any suggestions on what to use when I put the gaskets on should I use something like Honda bond or something for each part of the head do I need anything or just keep it dry and place the gaskets on for the bore and the head thanks for then help 👍😁
I appreciate the feedback that was my goal short simple and sweet except for the end because my camera running out of storage, But when I did my big bore kit It came with one metal gasket and one paper gasket one in between the jug and head and one in between the head and something else but I did not use any sealant of any kind because the gaskets were brand new. There was no need in my case with brand new everything and I never had any leaks.
@@halethewhale lol I wish got that comment last week it makes sense my piston got so hot after using the grey permatex I used the stuff around the base but used the guides put those in place then slide the bore and the head on the bike ran for a hour or so but like u said I think it wasn’t getting oil the piston scratch the walls and I had such a stuck wrist pin I had to cut the piston off but now the wrist pin stuck on the rod 😕 tried using the bolt trick pb blaster to get the wrist pin off to just put the bike back to stock thanks for the info definitely getting a stock base gasket
No to your question man don't put anything on your gaskets just make sure you torque everything to spects and as you have your bike apart make sure you put a rag where the push rod comes off the crank so that nothing falls into the engine not all the way just enough to keep that from happening then take it back out as you put it together.
Don’t know what you’re asking me can you use stock or can you use stock? That doesn’t make sense if you’re getting big valves you will need to change your rocker arms as well
@@davidhofinger4927 you can use your stock head on a 50cc all the way to 100cc . In fact the stock head will give you more compression. That's more power. The high performance Head is deeper, so not as much compression. Does that make sense to you? That's why when hot rods are built they shave their heads. More compression equals more power.
It’s just a safety precaution on first startup, Your camshaft will be adequately oiled from the chain at throws oil from the bottom of the motor to the top into the rocker assembly and camshaft
@@Tomijus yeahhh that chain tensioner is TRASH I Ordered a new one and almost stripped that one out too putting it on. Definitely not a good part at all on these bikes just be really careful with them

To change camshaft just remove the valve cover and the access panel for the tensioner. No need take off the shrouds
BTW the malossi camshaft is the best one hands down.
