Low 50's on a sport Build is good work . Your cylinder is probably topping out at 9500 the yasuni r has room to go above 9500. They overlap well enough for your build . Top speed is fun to talk about But 0-40 is what we need the most for daily drivers . And if were chased by mean dogs .

I figure that it's the cylinder limiting me, cause I've seen dyno charts that show the R will go up towards 11k before it cuts off. Im happy and TBH I'm blown away with how this scoot performs. Gonna do some timed runs to double check and decide whether or not I need to change anything else. If I'm still at 10 sec 0-40 or better I'm going to leave it be. Would love to see 9s but hey it is just a sport build (now i just got to keep that in mind)

Well guys and girls,(if there is any lady's reading this). Broke my throttle cable today. And it's the main one that goes from the tube down to the y. Which if I'm honest I was expecting it to break due to the knick I seen in the cable when I put the bike back together in December 2019. Maybe I've got something here at home to be able to fix it. If not looks like I'm ordering one. If I gotta order one then I'm hoping to get a Motion Pro vortex with new cables (so I can keep my oil injection) maybe 60ish bucks but should give me a couple years of service
Edit..looks like I'm ordering something. The 3 cables I have here are either too short, for a 4t or don't have the right ends

Always a good idea to have a backup, for your backup. Just in case. ๐

Time to find a back up scooter . Its hard to have only one My wife draws the the line at 3 But I coax to 4 sometimes just to build with my son Well I still got Kym, my 4t agility, but she's blown up, low compression and needs another kit(really want to 2t swap it). Another one is in the works but ive gotta save up some cash. I've been looking for a Zuma in good shape with a title that's local and not $1000+. And I've also got a warm liking for a Genuine Roughhouse Sport, with its factory reservoir shock, 220mm front brake and ~50 mph top speed. But that's about $2000 and lets add in that I'm highly allergic to anything factory stock๐๐๐

I'm highly allergic to anything factory stock๐๐๐ i know the feeling I have parts coming through the mail every other month. I've looked at genuine scooters both the buddy and roughhouse to share the stable with my yamaha's Alot of parts swap right over . Genuine makes quality stuff.

I have to agree, not only are they quality bikes, the genuines are the only 2 stroke bikes sold brand new in the U.S. anymore.

Well, unless my mail box was robbed, I have been delivered a Bluetooth and invisible throttle cable.

Well my cable was found yesterday. Apparently the mail person scanned my package but failed to actually put it in my mailbox. At least I have it. Just one small issue, the end piece for the oil pump cable is large like what goes into the throttle tube. Which means I'm gonna have to drill the oil pump camwheel a little bit so everything works. That's my project for after work today

Well Becky just blew up. I'll know more tonight when I get a chance to pull it apart after I get home from work but I think it cracked or "somethinged" the rings. No discernible puffs of compression threw the exhaust. But kinda pops threw the exhaust if I open the throttle and try kicking it. My hopes at this moment is buying another cylinder. I've got a message in and gonna try buying something from another forum member. Fingers crossed
Upside (im gonna look at it this way)is I've got about 500 miles on this hodgepodge collection of parts

And the kymco is still broke down.๐ข๐ญ and if it wasn't for owing back child support I was gonna spend that 1200 on a Roughhouse Sport that recently hit marketplace in my area

Well I think I know the problem. I blew a head gasket. Now I haven't pulled the pipe and cylinder to check the rings but I think they are toast. The wall feels to smooth and don't look like are still hashed. I'm guessing a bit to rich. Based on the look of that plug (keep in mind my 2t oil is red). More pictures to come when I take the cylinder the rest of the way off Now I've got a Polini Sport "adjusted to corsa" on the way. Based on a dyno chart I've seen for similar ported Polini cast I should get 9.5-10hp, with my current setup otherwise, we will see.
