I didn't trust myself to do that, I took the lazy route 😂 the Needle itself only has one notch on it so I wouldn't have been able to adjust the flow of fuel at 1/2 to full throttle, so I'm glad I bought a whole Carb. I do recommend doing this for anyone not wanting to buy a whole new carb though. Same concept for your Jets, if you trust your work you can increase the sizing of your jets with a drill bit.
When I was looking into buying this thing, I couldn't really find many videos on it. So I'm documenting my journey with it in great detail for those that are looking at what this bike looks like, sounds like, and common issues. Since I'm daily driving this thing I'll get to know it pretty well. I've been compiling videos by people that actually know what they are talking about so people can work on it themselves if they choose to do so. A lot of people with GY6 engines start out with a 50cc then immediately bore it out or buy a 150cc. I want to keep it 50cc, so others that want to do so as well have a general idea of what they may want to do.
It depends on what you're wanting to learn. It is an automatic, so you won't get the full motorcycle experience, and it's slow, but if your wanting to learn the basics I'd say it's a great starter. If you know how to ride a bike a little crazy you should be good. The biggest thing you need to learn is counter steering, and keeping yourself balanced at a snails pace, but you can use your feet once you are going slow enough. If you have any other questions feel free to ask, and I'll do my best to find you an answer. If you want to know anything technical or mechanical I'm making a playlist with videos by professionals that know what they are doing. My videos are just for people looking to get this bike, and want to know what it looks like, sounds like, ect. When I was looking into getting this bike there wasn't much out there about this bike specifically, and I still don't think there is, but you can find videos all day about the motor it uses. Another good channel is Mike Check Moto, he has one too
Im in the process of purchasing one of these but theres suchhh little information about these I had a few questions 1) it states that theres a restricter on the bike to keep it 30 or under is the restricter in the cvt? & 2) what do i need to upgrade/ maybe change to get it to go 40-42mph? I have a road thats 40 & i just wanna be able to keep some what of pace with cars in that specific area Thank you
@@gameoveramy9979 when i bought it, it had no limiter. Best alternative overall os 80cc big bore kit. Keeps 50cc serial number. Basic upgrades are Carburetor, Air intake, Variator weights, the lighter they are they faster you'll go, but get a tachometer so you know your RPM. Can mess around with the belt too. Each of these mods aside from the big bore kit, the more of them you do, you gradually see an increase. If you want to tune the motor itself, you will need an aftermarket Carburetor, because the stock one is non tamperable, unless you wanna grind slots in the screw points
@@gameoveramy9979 I ran in the same problems finding information you did when I got mine. That is why I decided to make videos on it, and help answer any questions I can with what i have learned. Here is a playlist I have made with information that I've found useful. Some videos may have the same topic, but explained differently, or with other steps or helpful insights th-cam.com/play/PLz2qrlB648HoMLVlh7DQQ-FWCbJYCHq9a.html&si=tOkyIJXaVFlA8S53
It depends on your body weight, I weigh 130ish and mine goes 35mph. You should be fine with a stock carb, but at some point I would at least have it changed to an aftermarket one so you can tune your air to fuel ratio more accurately. It can be the exact same size, you don't have to go crazy, if you do decide you want to change it out, and tune it yourself (and you don't know what your doing, not that I'm saying you don't just offering knowledge) I have a playlist on my channel called "Scoot Stuffs" I'd give it a look. Videos by real mechanics and professionals, extremely detailed, and there are multiple videos on the same topic because some videos leave things out. If you have any more questions feel free to stop by here or my Discord
@@drunkclown91 if anything the jets that are in New carb are the same, I was just able to tune my idle so it didn't die when I come to a stop. I still need to do my valve adjustment and remove the EGR, but I need to find a block off plate. It's running better than when I bought it I know that for certain. I imagine I'll start seeing a power increase once I get the correct carb jets and adjust my valves
@@drunkclown91 I don't remember who I mentioned it to, but I have a playlist called #scootstuffs. It is a compilation of videos on our motor by people that are more than likely certified, or I at least trust their judgment
Yeah, I'd be down. I'm not going to do a big bore kit or anything. I'm going to keep it at 50cc, just going to try to squeeze as much out of it as I can and get it running how I want it to
@@Billy_The_Kid-I’ll definitely be going all out in every way. Looks and power. It’ll be my transportation for the next 2 years :(. But yea, just trying to figure what to get first
@@drunkclown91 don't let my decisions hold you back, just be careful on how big you go with the big bore kit, because it thins out your head and makes it heat up faster, so if you are driving long distance you would be more prone to overheating, I don't know what the sweat spot is, you would have to do some research. I feel you, this is my ride for the foreseeable future
@@drunkclown91 I chose this model because I liked the Guages, they aren't exposed, and you aren't sitting straight up right, and being on a scooter you have to take the wind into consideration
@@Billy_The_Kid-oh no I understand haha, I read 80cc is a happy median. But also getting an actual cooler (simple instal) will help mitigate that. I gotta travel 12 miles to work and this 25-30mph doesn’t cut it. A lot of hills so that’s about my avg

Take a small drill bit and slowly carefully drill that flat brass and you can get to your adjustment screw!

please never stop
I should have another one out soon, all I have to work with is my phone so I'm limited to what I can do. I'm going to keep pumping them out though
Dude I love your videos

thank you for making videos on the venom x18, would you say its a good starter?

Hey if I buy this motorcycle do you think I should be fine if I keep it completely stock. And if so what's the top speed stock?

How’s that carb treating you?
It's doing much better than the stock one, I still need to buy jets for it though
@@Billy_The_Kid-did you conclude any performance increase? I’m at 500 miles now. Starting it I gotta give some gas for a minute
