Not enjoying the scooter at all that's an understatement. I change the jetting multiple times I thought I was getting close but from the very first attempt at running it, up until it's just been sitting in my basement for the past 2 months or so I had a total of four soft sieze. I figured I'll just tear it down and see what it looks like. I don't know how to add pictures so I'm just going to have to upload them and post a link. Needless to say the Piston shot I watch some videos how you can rehome the cylinder but by the time I buy a honing kit for 50 bucks I might as well just buy a new jug and piston kit.

postimg.cc/gallery/HLx7FBPSo there's the link to the four pictures showing the piston and the cylinder. The amazing thing is when I run my fingernail around the piston you're really don't even feel a difference in the height of the material. In the cylinder there's only one spot that I can barely feel a difference. I know the tolerances are supposed to be really tight and your rings are what create your compression. Even with all of these marks on the piston and the cylinder I still had 135 PSI compression. It would start right up hot or cold. About a month and a half or two months ago was the last time I took it out and I thought I was getting the car pretty much jetted almost spot on it was a 40 idle jet and a 100 main jet and then I found an adjustable needle from a cheap Chinese carburetor that I had bought I'm not using it I'm still running the stock one and I modified it so you can adjust the fuel air but prior to drilling out that little plug I had ordered a cheap one off of Amazon when I took it apart to my surprise the cheap $20 carburetor had adjustable slots for the clip in the needle and the stock scooter does not. So using that needle I had leaned it out as much as I could because it was running rich in the mid-range. And I thought it was running pretty good but it just didn't have the power that it had when I originally put the kit together. So I was up last night thinking you know what fuck it I'll just tear it apart and see what it looks like it's not a lot of money it's more of a headache factor for me that I need to have things working correctly and I need to understand how to fix something and get it to work more than the money that's pissed away in the process. So this was an ncy kit for the rough House the 70cc they caught it 72cc actually but I don't know what it is whether it's a 70 or 72. My question to everybody is when I go to order another Big bore kit is there a better choice than what I ordered? I race motorcycles for years I had a turbo hayabusa who made 420 horsepower I just love scooters for some stupid reason and we're all here for the same reason more than likely. With the bus on my ZX14 all of the cylinders are nickasil plated. Does anybody do that for a two-stroke scooter Big bore kit? It makes it a hell of a lot more durable far more resistant to scuffing. So please tell me what your opinion is of what I should buy. Half of me was tempted to just go back to the same kit because I've got the carburetor where I think is damn near spot on it's just that it was way down on power from what it was when it was a brand new kit and this only has 5 miles of total use if that maybe even less. And I figured if I get the same kit the carburetor settings are going to be pretty damn near spot on if I go to a different brand with a different port configuration that I'm kind of back to square one. Thanks in advance
