Worst bike ever

Do my eyes deceive me, or is it single ringed?

 

[lingo]

I see two grooves. one compression and one oiler

 

[Sonreir]

Yeah... most pistons I've seen have three, though. The oil ring isn't there for compression purposes and offers very little in the way of drag... I just can't remember ever seeing a four stroke with only one ring.

I am more interested in the large end of the rod. Do you have to press the crank together with the rods on the journals?

 

[Sonreir]

Yeah. A lot of Hondas are like that.

Is this a hipster thing? I don't get the game. LOL

It's an Internet thing.

Correct. It's two rings. One oil and one compression. ABove about 10,000 it runs better with a single ring.

Each pair of big ends is a different size to the other pair. It's the way that the press up crank was designed. It has tiny pork chop flywheels and almost no flywheel effect to speak of, so it dies if you let revs drop.

Compression is not very high and that allows it to rev to the moon. Ignition timing is very far advanced and is fixed - no advance or retard.

Def 2/10 wouldn't bang that. Yeah right....

 

[hillsy]

I'd tap that.
