Just got the Honda and can make it run smooth after a carburator cleaning by using the choker 100 pct... Guess that indicates I need to fit a larger main jet - like a size 65?

If your scooter is all stock why should you have to up the main jet. could be still something clogged in carburetor or filter not allowing enough flow?

The Carburetor and filter has been cleaned, but I dont know the history of the scooter as to type of cylinder, piston etc. All i know is that it does not run correctly and I dont know what the stock/standard size of the main jet is...

Fitted at size 68 and the scooter is now running as it should. I'll upload some pictures for you to see how the Danish version looks like.
