I had to use two applications of aircraft paint stripper to ge...

Re: Project: Aratech
what kind of sand blaster are you using? I'm thinking of building my own cabinet for sandblasting. This is the gun I have- http://www.tractorsupply.com/tools/sandblasting-tools-accessories/sandblast-gun-with-hose-3434614 and this is the material I use- http://www.tractorsupply.com/tools/sandblastin...

This will be a journal tracking what I hope to be a unique scooter when I am done with it. The starter bike is a 1984 Honda Aero 80 that is not in the best of condition- http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a291/GIJoeBob/Speeder%20Bike/HPIM3405.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a291/GIJoeBob/Speede...

It's not half as good a site as this one, but the only one devoted to those bikes.
Here is the meat and potato section of expressly mopeds-

Re: is there a nc50 forum half as good as this one .
I think it's expresslyhonda.yuku.com and I went through a bunch of work to get registered over there only to find out there is almost no content. I have better luck here so I stay here. I'm collecting parts to restore a GREEN 78 express . This site needs an NC50 section. I don't know about an Expre...

Re: Off topic - 1975 Yamaha TY80 carb issue
I revisted the bike this weekend and figured it out. There is a plastic bushing that fits between the intake tube and the throat of the carb that was not seated all the way that was making the bike run lean. I fixed that and ran the bike around the yard and churned up dirt and grass much to the deli...

Off topic - 1975 Yamaha TY80 carb issue

After putting it back on it starts up great but immediately revs to a very high rpm like the throttle is being held wide open. As far as I can tell the carb slide and c...
