a couple questions

Post by charleswymer »

ok so i have a 94 honda elite 50 that i bought a year ago and it came all torn apart in boxes. i finally graduated college this spring :woot: and have the to money to buy the missing parts. so far i have a big bore kit from taz, the 9 to 1 gears, a ruckus variator, the exhaust washer is drilled out and i will be removing the "second tab". my question is with these mods will the 100 jet that came with the bbk work or should i order a bigger one? also the bearing that goes in the piston "around the piston pin" is that a common bearing to get at a hardware store (if so which one and what size is it) or would it be better to just order it from a honda dealer?

order the bearing from honda or taz. And the 100 jet should be fine. ran almost the same setup except the variator in my 94 for around 600 miles no problem. went with dif exhaust and carb after that.

jetting depends on what size bore kit you have, carb size, the 9 to 1 gears are way off unless you like pop wheelies- try 7 to 1 ratio if you want speed.
some people dream of speed, i own your dreams!
