    People like the guy that was messaging u step by step are the reasons i love the car/motorcycle/scooter community. Ive literally fixed my broken down cars based off ppls comments and being told where to look.
    Most of the time with vehicles jts knowing where to look for an issue and knowing how to disassemble/reassemble. Its rare to find someone that will walk you through the entire process like this, but i guess the point of this comment is... ppl like that are still out there, And those are the ppl that make me love this community. Find one, make friends and build engines together for life

    This is what most of us in Europe run for a budget, sporty wheelie build. The 70cc Malossi cast iron performs well.
    Al tough a lot of people do prefer the DR70 cast iron above the Malossi kit. Both seem to perform about the same with the Malossi having a tiny bit more top end.
    With a full volume crank set, a 19 mm carb with a good expansion chamber exhaust like a Yasuni R if you can find one in the states, a bigger intake manifold and thicker reed valves or a reed valve kit this moped wil fly!
    It will throw you back without any effort. You can go a bit lighter on the rollers as well 6.5 is the sweet spot for now.
    Have fun, stay safe!

    Hey, i was the second of 2 mechanics in illinois biggest scooter dealership for 2 years until they downsized a few months ago. I had taken apart your exact bike hundreds of times and replaced everything imaginable on one of those, just wanted to say love the video. it really gives me a calming feeling of nostalgia and happiness seeing someone figure out how to assemble a big bore kit, after id struggled with them for so much time. be sure to work on some old vespas and piagios next!

    That video reminded me my childhood - before (and even little after 2010) those 50 cc scooters was a go. Almost every teenager in my country had one and we even had our own community. Imagine a dozen of scooters zooming through the streets in line, popping wheelies on a secluded streets, working on them with friends. Performance mods is one thing but the cosmetic was also important - two tone paintjobs, polished aluminium parts... Heck, we even had a guys with a sound systems built inside the storage space under the seat (built from one/two speakers and a car radio or amplifier). Now I'm a 30+ years old guy and I see scooters being used for food delivery and casual cruising to work but there is no communities like those from 15 years ago. And no crazy builds. And some of them have electric motors.
    Now hear me out - with the set up like this I think You should easly achieve even 60 mph! Also, if I were You, I would entirely throw out the oil pump and do the oil and gasoline mix by myself. Then, for the new cylinder set I would add a bit more oil for the breaking period ;)

  • @middlesiderrider
    @middlesiderrider Рік тому +756

    Always check ring gap. At least .004" per inch of bore. A 70 kit is usually around 47mm which is about 2 inches, so rings should have .008" gap minimum. Also, it's important to make sure the cylinder ports are chamfered. Many kits require you to do this. I know Malossi is higher quality but I still would have checked that. It's extremely important. I also would suggest removing the engine, as it's only a couple more bolts and allows you to put the thing up on a table where you're not crawling around on the ground. It makes it way easier and more pleasant to do the work. Although that just might be my old-man-back speaking...

    One thing i have always learned is that if you can, get the 6 point socket at ANYTIME over a 12 point. 12 points just seem to strip the shit out of any bolt/nut after a few times of being taken off and put back on.
    12 point sockets have their uses, but honestly i don't use them for much other than hammering onto a stripped bolt at this point.

      It is SO fun to hear these names for parts and carbs... I live in Norway and when i was like 17 (33 years ago) Me and all the guys got the 7HP or the insane 12HP kits for our mopeds with malossi and dell'orto parts!! I did not even know they were in buisness still. I had a Suzuki ZR 50 that i put a 12HP kit on with the carb and performance exhaust but it was so insane it twisted my frame and the bike became undrivable. it did 110 km/h top speed but with a slow acceleration. Bought a Suzuki 50 SL instead the chopper version and chilled down to the 7HP kit wich kept the frame from twisting

    • @kramnull8962
      @kramnull8962 Рік тому

      That's the thing, with these kits, everything from hills, to daily atmospheric changes change the jetting. You can be good with the jetting for flat roads, but go to pull a 2 mile hill and they will go lean. Like him, I was suggested an 85 jet for the 21mm and a 90 would still be lean going uphill. I even installed a 91-100. If I got it rich enough on a hill the flat roads were running super rich.
      Only thing I could think of was for one, the cable that adjusted the 2 stroke oil feed was constantly shrinking and expanding, alternating the oil into the feed. Not to mention the dang rear pulley even a brand new one, would get worn in no time and not change gears properly. No spring is going to overcome those pins inside that rear pulley half from digging into the slots they ride in; hanging usually in mid range gearing on the rear pulley, never highest gears or the lowest gears.
      Kinda like the "Throttle position sensors"; they used to get an area of the gas pedal that would start to glitch while driving @ 45 mph because that is where the gas pedal is mashed to 90% of the time. That wasn't a metal quality thing like with the rear pulley, but just saying the most used gear is going to cut right into that part of the rear pulley slots first and foremost.
      These gears are made for 75 pound people..... And going 2-5 miles tops. And flatlands....

    @MykytaKrantzRezt 4 місяці тому

    I think you got a really good build for the money, but there are a few small details I noticed that you should keep in mind for next time. Since you bought a cast iron cylinder this time, it will take a very long time to break it in, and if you don’t do it properly, the cylinder might seize much faster. So, you should consider getting an aluminum cylinder next time. Also, when you upgrade from 50cc to 70cc, the moped's crankshaft may not be able to handle it, so you should replace it with a reinforced crankshaft.
    If your goal is to do wheelies with it, you should also use lighter variator weights, as the lighter the weights, the better the acceleration. You should also replace the carburetor, because the stock carburetor often can’t provide enough fuel for a 70cc engine. And if you change the carburetor, you should ideally change the ignition as well, otherwise, it’s very easy for the moped to misfire.
    Additionally, you need to get an unrestricted CDI, as the original CDI is designed to limit the speed to 25/45 km/h. But other than that, it was a really good build for $645

    Nice vid man, this scooter (Honda Vision) was quite popular in the early 90's here in the Netherlands, this is also the time scooters became very popular because you didn't have to learn how to shift and because of the CVT it wasn't slow like older automatic shifting mopeds and a lot cheaper to insure then a manually shifted moped.
    Illegal Scooter/moped tuning still is a thing here but harder to get away with these days, damn cops!

      Getting away with it isn't hard, it just costs way more money. My looks-stock Agility 50 has been modified with EFI, so when the cops pull me over for dyno testing (rollenbank) I just don't poke the app on my phone that switches to the "sport" fuel map. Cops invariably know something is up, because it cuts off at about 5000rpm instead of 6500rpm and it usually shows up as 52-54 kph.
      Even if they take off the cover plate that would house the CDI normally, all they'll find is an ECU without its Bluetooth sticker on it. If they open the carburettor door in the bottom of the seat, they'll see an injector and throttle-by-wire intake. Mostly I can make the cops go away after arguing about how it's for fuel economy.
      Worst things I've happen so far is a cop breaking the quarter turn throttle handle, because he thought it was jammed by some sort of restrictor mechanism. And one that asked "so where's the carburettor" while staring at the fuel injector assembly.
      With the sports fuel map loaded, it does about 65kph, which is fast enough. I've done quite a bit of modifications, but mostly because my friend bought a new cnc lathe for his shop, so yeah custom final drive, custom camshaft, reveno clutch pack, it's mostly "because we can" kind of things.

    These things are really popular or at least were back in the day in italy, vespas turned into flying coffins, big blocks with bigger cylinders, and the ignition also made huge power if modified correctly, also put a bigger carb in, i think its mandatory if you have all that stuff in there, 125cc two stroke scooters were able to reach incredible speed and power, went up to 180 ccs

    A bigger carb and a new airfilter is necessary, as the engine is basically being suffocated right now. The scooter won't get any more complicated or any less reliable, it will just run better and make way more power.
    And you shouldn't worry about having to tune the carb, as it really isn't that difficult. You just pick the right jet, which doesn't take too long through trial and error, and then you adjust the air/fuel ratio and the idle. After all that your malossi kit should max out at about 70 mph.

    Your 50cc Honda scooter looks very similar to my first 50cc scooter, a Honda Vision, which I bought somewhere around 1995 in The Netherlands. I was 16 back then, the legal age one is allowed to ride 50cc scooters and mopeds, nowadays a valid license is obligatory. What about the US, do you need a special driving license for 50cc? What is the maximum allowed speed for 50cc two-wheelers? In The Netherlands it was only 45 km/h and every moped and scooter was throttled,. either with a special cap or ring in the variomatic (the front pulley) and/or exhaust. The easiest way to remove the restriction was replace the exhaust pipe and change the vario weights, sometimes also the fuel jet. Unrestricted a lot of 50cc 2-stroke scooters would easily do 60-80 km/h, with a racing reverse exhaust pipe sometimes even more. Downside was it being illegal. What do your local policemen say about it?

    Rings need to be letter side up and positioned with the gaps opposite of each other. If you install rings wrong it will smoke all the time and burn cylinder. And yes, always check gap by putting ring in cylinder, push down with piston to be sure it is in straight, then check gap with feeler gauge. Yama-Bond is the best. Grease the exhaust studs or they will be very hard to get out when you upgrade exhaust. Good job doing this on your own!! lots of little things people learn as they gain exp.

You need to see video how to service scooter cvt. I can hear metal grinding sounds from the CVT. If you need more top speed maybe you change roller to 7g or keep 3 pieces 5.6g and change other 3 to 7+g. You may loss torque but you get top speed. Playing with scooter CVT is experimental it is depend on load of rider, if you always ride with pillion need to adjust again to avoid stress from the engine.

    Synthetic brake grease for all brake components and others. Anti-seize isn't a good lubricant. It's good for non-moving components - lug nuts, exhaust studs/nuts, etc to prevent galling... However, others may say different. Good video by the way !
