    50cc to 70cc question

    Ace 50 Salt Lake Racer

    Great project. I also have an ace 50cc, that after a few mods now runs very well and is a hell of alot of fun. Remove the restrictor, change the cdi add a foam airfilter, change the exhaust, re-jet the carb, upgrade to a 14tooth front sprocket and you will be pleasantly surprised

    Awesome. I also ride mine every day where possible. I am doing some head work on a second head at present to open up and improve the flow ready for a high lift cam. Then I will build a new exhaust. Allready has a new CDI, carb and larger front sprocket which get the little 50 to around 65km/hr.

    Hello from NZ

    Hi there, although traditionally an old VW guy, I have turned my hand to try motorbikes (although I don't have a license, so I am now a scooter guy)! I love the cafe racer style from the 60's so until I have my license and can build something with more grunt I am working on this. Still pretty...
