I'm introducing my build thread for a mild cafe treatment. I've always wanted a two stroke bike and when this came up for sale I couldn't pass it up. I pick it up with a title for cheap, overall its in decent shape. Nothing electrical works though the 6volt battery is hooked up. The bike runs but the carb leaks like a sieve. The petcock has a slow leak as well, just adding to the pile of gas under the bike. The tach doesn't work and the oil injection system needs help, although i think this one is just minor. The lines are clogged and crusty. so hopefully changing those will fix the problem.
I rode the bike around for 30 or so miles, the power seems ok for a little two stroke, but could be better. For the most part this bike is going to be a commuter. I would also like to retain the seat as is, maybe just a recover. I've already had the bike two up with my girl, and as we are both light (together not even coming close to 300lbs) it does just fine. I would like this to be a fun little scoot to take short trips around ohio on. If anyone has any info on these bikes I would greatly appreciate it, as google yields next to nothing.
on a side note, Im open to all ideas on what should be done. I've never owned a two stroke so anything helps me learn... ive got an expansion chamber, but was told the bike is ludicrously loud with it on. Don't know if theres any power to be had with it on, but after the carbs fixed im sure a test run will be in order
