Re: Ruckus Horizontal Minarelli Build
Hey bro I remember you! Did the oil get you guys back to where you needed to go?
Re: Ruckus Horizontal Minarelli Build
Sweet build. I'm surprised you're not getting more speed out of it though. I had a '96 jog that I put a pipe and variator on. After rejetting it, I got a GPS verified 53 mph. I bet you're probably getting more than 60 out of it.

Im still tuning, but recently hit 63mph @ 13,800rpms.
Lots of stuff I'm learning as I go

Re: Ruckus Horizontal Minarelli Build
Hey Brian,
Thats with the stock gears off the 04'. Got that mph number from the RPM Speed Calculator over on zumaforums.
I havent bought any upgraded gears yet, just trying to get the trans and carb dialed in correctly before buying more engine stuff.

Re: Ruckus Horizontal Minarelli Build
Double check to see if your getting full belt ride height on the variator by marking it with a sharpie.if your running a athena variator,those don't get full belt ride height. How is it doing heat wise?

Re: Ruckus Horizontal Minarelli Build
Thanks for the tip Brian. Ill try it out this weekend and see how high its riding. Im running a Malossi variator. Say for instance it isnt riding all the way up, do I need to get some of those S6 washer shims? Im curious if the belt is aligned with the variator and clutch pulley, as Ive heard that the OEM setup has washers. I dont have them. How can I check if its aligned?bakaracer wrote:Double check to see if your getting full belt ride height on the variator by marking it with a sharpie.if your running a athena variator,those don't get full belt ride height.

Re: Ruckus Horizontal Minarelli Build
Thanks Mike!
Installed my new fender this weekend. Also drilled a few holes in the belt cover. On to the pics...
Didnt get to test the belt and the Variator yet Bakaracer. When taking off the Variator, found that a couple of parts needed replacing and I was missing a few washers according to the parts fiche. Ordered what I needed so going to get things going real soon!

Re: Ruckus Horizontal Minarelli Build
Just noticed I never updated this thread
This basically shows the bike in its final form:
Rode it around like that for a while until this happened:
Then started thinking about all the headaches I had riding this thing long distances. I would have to jet this thing on the side of the rode. Came to the conclusion that I needed to go 4 stroke. 180cc with all the fixin's to be exact.
Then I went a little crazy ordering parts
Then decided I needed new paint.
