    My first kit after seeing you channel was a legal 49cc kit. It just didn't have any power even after replacing most things on it. I almost threw in the towel but tried a 80cc kit and there is no comparison. It's funny how a 50cc moped or those Chinese motorcycles with 50cc engines can go much faster than a 49cc motorized bike kit. Seeing a real world conversion of one of these to the larger piston and jug might be cool one day.

      My older bike in 2012 was a 49cc smaller engines more bolts but I did had an upgraded carburetor an exhaust header just a aluminum plate that looks cool and maybe the baffle on the exhaust removed CNC hub adapter and I kind of forgot what else but that bike used to haul butt it was one of my fastest bikes it hit 48 miles an hour like no problem it was a true 49cc

      My first build was a 49 four stroke great power no clutch lever only down side is it's heavy as fuck. I already threw it on an older cruiser so it was all around heavy. Two two stroke builds later I'm on my third one . 80/66 that is

      The way the engine powers the bike is all the difference the variator and final drive gearing turns high Rpms through a reduction that give torque. The motorized bikes use crappy gear reduction box low torque transfer. Without a running start at a steep hill you'll have to pedal to help the bike get going.

It runs ok and the face of people seen the chainsaw is worth millions !!! Lol. Now im doing another one using the gears to pick up some speed and make it more quiet with a 26.2 4 stroker.

    a year later, and I got myself my 1st kit. 1st thing I did yesterday was to completely disassemble it, and with the knowledge of this community identified many major flaws that I am now fixing. One of the bearings was seated so tightly it wasnt moving anymore - I couldnt move it with a finger - only when the entire clutch axle was in and I could grab the clutch outer diameter to get more leverage. yikes
    next thing was that magneto coil screws were too long - 3 of them were so long that the entire thing was movable by hand even though screwes were bottomed out.
    3rd thing was a shaft seal that was totally mangled due to crooked casting - one side of it was like 3mm taller, slanted towards other side, and the bearing inside had its shield pushed in, contacting the bearing balls. So 2 out of 4 bearings had to be fixed.
    a crap ton of metal shavings fell out from under the bevel gear - it was shortened by a 5 year old or something, the burr is like half a millimeter deep.
    but there werent any lips on the head ports, so thats nice
    anyway, thx for your videos, I can fix the motor even before I put it on the bike, its a luxury.

    One thing I imagine would really wake up one of these little 49cc engines is a case reed conversion. I'm actually planning on testing that with a spare bottom end I have that uses a beefy GT5 crank with thicker than normal flywheels (38mm stroke). With the intake completely filled and sealed and a 3rd transfer cut, I'll bet that thing gains a lot of bottom end. Couple that with a decent pipe and maybe add just enough exhaust duration to get it to pull up to 8000rpm, and that would be one smooth running little ripper!

    I purchased a BBR 48cc. I did loose some power on hills, but the engine runs amazingly smooth. Is sounds good through all throttle positions. I didn't port match or do a thorough inspection inside. I built it as a starter bike for a young adult. Maybe I just got lucky and got a good one. I will walk him through everything after riding it a little more.

I think the intake manifold bored as big as it can go up top with dimples Works the best .. when I port stuff I like to do it in a bin with warm water .harbor freight flex shaft rotary tool seems pretty quality & works well for rough fast cutting but the dremmel goes faster for polishing & fits in tighter spots..

    Well done, i bought a black 50cc kit and the paint it like a thick enamal, and does chip and can get in places you dont want, like the spark plug hole, for one. lol Mine is working well and i got the new version of the carbs as well, but i put the speed carb on my motor. Still at anything over 1/2 throttle is grols or gurgles what ever you want to call it. Four stroking but not sure if that is what it is. I think i need to jet the carb. Tho this carb worked great on my 80cc. I had to raise the clip on the neddle valve all the way to the top, to make it stop four stroking even at low speeds, which is odd again. lol Anyhow thanks man, off to your next vid.

    I just recently had my first motorized bike stolen off of me. I had a heavy duty steel cable lock but somebody came and used steel bolt cutters to it. They got my pk80 on a Wasaga vagabond frame with the 6cc compression head, a high performance carburetor, boost bottle and an expansion exhaust. It's almost heartbreaking because I got really good at building the engines but I keep having problems with chain alignment. I posted on Facebook for the crime watch group in my area and a few people have seen somebody riding around on one like it but painted it black now it's this pisses me off that he somehow got the chain to work when he stole it the chain wasn't even on the bike I barely got to ride the thing I snapped two chains on it. I don't know if it was because it was the engine and frame alignment, I bought from somebody pre-built but he knew what he was doing. I don't want to give up on this Hobby and my next bike I wanted to work on building a yd 100. I'm just not sure what the best yd 100 is to get?. Is it the Zeda firestorm 100 or is it the bbr racing 100 they're the only two that I can afford right now in limited to $600 Canadian. I'm getting a hyper 26 in cruiser bike and was wondering if that's a good one too. Also a Bell u-bolt level 5 bike lock for it. I just wanted to get some advice on if the hyper cruiser frame is a good bike what would be the best yd 100 and also what kind of security measures can I use. I have a security bike lock that gives off an alarm if you try to cut it I also have one of those vibrational seatpost alarms and I got a magnetic GPS tracker. Now remember I'm Canadian so I'm limited to how I can defend myself. Police don't give a shit in my town either. I called them yesterday morning and they still haven't shown up. On top of that I've had two other people scoping up my girlfriend's e-bike that we've seen on our security camera I already got her that u bolt bike lock level 5 for e bike. Sorry to rant in such a long message it's just you know a lot about the yd100 and those engines and how to keep your bike secure and I'm just kind of venting right now and freaking out over the loss of my first bike and I know you don't know me or have any reason to care but I'd really like your advice on all this. I saw from this video how when you order a bike kit in you clearly need to take it apart and put it back together and re-grease everything to make it run properly and I want to build my next one properly that's the main reason I'm asking your advice.

      Go to DMV and get the training manual for a motorcycle. Anything over 50cc is a motorcycle so you NEED a motorcycle license, a motorcycle helmet, motorbike insurance, a license plate and the serial number off the frame which is usually behind the headlight. I started with a motorcycle so know this schit. The Moped came later(as a "toy" to fucck with) It is something that gets strapped onto a Winnebago as a grocery store getter, nothing more. A YD100 is 100cc MOTORCYCLE not legal for highway because it can't got that fast and it tiny schit. It is a toy. No serious suspension so barely a DRIVEWAY rider. As for your stolen bike - go to the COP shop and ask to look at their recovered bikes.(there will be a lot of them) You need proof of ownership which means your purchase papers as the serial number is on that form. If you find your bike there then you can claim it. If it ain't there, well, you tried. Then who has it has it on the front of their motorhome or out back for the kids to play with. SOMEWHERE. Your only chance of recovery is LUCK and your proof of ownership because you got the serial numbers.(it is not something you can make up and it matches what is on the bike) You may have to STEAL it back. Or it is in a trash heap somewhere, rusting. That is life.
      . "Police don't give a shit in my town either."
      . They do when the bike is licensed, insured & registered with DMV. Though the only way they can find it is IF IT GETS LICENSED AGAIN then the red lights go on at DMV as a "reported" stolen bike. They have the address of the culprit and can cruise over there and seize the bike. But if he NEVER PLATES THE BIKE then you are up shitz creek.
      . I know this because I got a KZ400 Kawasaki that way. They never registered it in the beginning and I did. It is now my bike. They can eat a shitburger. I don't care.

    I like the 50ccs, if you figure out the compression and run a proper 2 stroke pipe it will definitely be usable, I searched around and got a 2 stroke scooter exhaust to install and the little motor finally acted like a refined small engine. They cut to many corners when they paint the motors, ordering a bare metal engine and taking care of the finish is the way to go!

      51cc is classed as a motorcycle. Meaning you need a helmet, a motorcycle license meaning passing the course exam, get insurance and registration if you are going to ride it on the road. Like WHY FLUCK WITH it. ? Get a 175cc Japanese motorcycle where you can do 100MPH, insurance, registration, helmet, motorcycle license(no different than a car license - meaning they test you before you get it) and then you can play with the 66cc engine. Me, I would toss it in the trash and ride! Because I don't have the patience to fluck with it...I would rather ride.

      The whole idea was not to get additional power out of them as a Moped is not to go over 29MPH so it barely makes it in the neighborhood on the slower streets. It is not allowed on the highway at all., not much of a bush bike(lack of suspension). It is the adult community traveler in the community. Maybe to the grocery store for 1 or 2 items and no more than that. A 49cc Moped can get 200MPG

    So I’m thinking about doing my first build. Honestly, my goals for the build will be to learn about small engines and successfully build something that works. I’m thinking about a Firestorm Zeda 80 because of the reviews. I’m worried that all these guys online who clearly know a lot more than me are finding manufacturing issues that I will not have the skills to identify or address.

      Seeing this years later, and idk about a second 66 BUT ive been kicking around ideas of a second motor.. would require fabricating a bracket for front fork if using combustion so that engine and chain druve can move independently obviously but this would cause issues in steering because if he weight. But that may be able to be mitigated with a counter weight. All that is alot. What ive been thinking would be much more feasible would be and electric motor up front. Would be lighter, require less fabrication (maybe none if hub motor) and it should give a very noticable boost to power and top end while also being a contingency if other motor dies. Just some thoughts but ifnyou get the time id love to get yojr opinion.

      Go with a larger rear sprocket. As a bonus it will clime hills better and pull more from a dead stop.
      But for max range, keep the stock sprocket, find a long flat road, use your phone's GPS speed app, get up to 20mph, hold it there for a few seconds, than mark the throttle grip, and throttle grip housing at that exact spot. Simple, but effective.
      You will still have full power to get up to speed, than you can just hold the throttle steady at that spot...
      I would say "just use your phone as a GPS all the time..." but that is not always practical.

      Chain to the pedals as well is what makes it a MOPED and it tops out at 29MPH. Check with DMV in their motorcycle training handbook and you will find what a MOPED is and can't go any faster than info. So every cop can visually see you have a motorcycle as it is motor driven (be it electric or gasoline - it don't matter) So, you know you are not legal.

    The painted motors are a result of whatever company's particular process. We cant assume all components or assembly is done in one building or linearly fluid. Individual components produced in several different small operations and shelf time mean for them the cheapest way to make sure yoi dont recieve a solid block of rust is to seal in paint asap after casting etc. Very much being a case ofnyou get what you pay for, the cheaper price will almost always dictate the buyer essentially becomesntesponsible for finishing properly. My only gripe is that this should be expressed up front to the customer in marketing or ay least come with some paperwork or manual that explains finsihing and prep prior to assembly
