The only issue is the where it mounts to the scooter. They have the same size exhaust manifolds, they just don't have the right mount points,sometimes they have an immediate bend after the manifold(on the 150s), and the 50s exhaust wont fit :/

Hey guys, I think I have a blown scooter on my hands. It's my neighbors scooter and has been missing the muffler for about 4 -6mnths. I took it for a long ride the other day, very loud, but overall wasnt a bad ride until the way back. I slowly lost power, and then all of a sudden very loud crash of metal smashing together, what I thought was a clutch, it wasnt.... clutch looks fine. It sounds like I have plenty of compression as well. But when I start it, I can hear almost a ringing when rev'ed. Checked the oil level, OF COURSE it was empty, because no one takes care of they're crap!
I changed the oil to find maybe an eighth of QUART!.... and lots of metal shavings in the top of the oil pan bolt....
I am sure it will need rebuilt, I am just wondering what you guys think it is, Block, Piston Rings...
Thanks Guys, Ill post some pics or video shortly

Hey guys, I have a lot to fill you guys in on the Vespa and the Yamaha Jog Carb. It WILL START(TUNING/VAC ISSUES)...
ANYWAY - MY CURRENT ISSUE
I have this 150cc, GY6. It has 13inch wheels, and the front end is EXTREMELY "BOUNCY" at 30mph-60mph. I ordered a new, 130/60 R13 Kenda Tire, Looks great. However, when the wheel was on the bike, the old tire LOOKED EGG SHAPED...(Out Of Round) NOW, it doesn't seem so... Can you guys think of anything right off hand, that CAUSE bouncing??? I do realize that BALANCING may also be the issue, however, I have never had to balance ANY of my SCOOTER tires, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't need it... I HAVE NO, (Repeat) NO TIRE SHOPS within 39 miles... PAIN IN THE A$$!!!
I will be trying to either zip tie/PRY this tire off the rim manually :///
Thanks Guys!!!

EXACTLY!
I saw the price difference and just didn't understand WHY!?
So I decided to go with this carb, Mixes at it, and it's the exact same dimensions as the stock one.
NOW, lets just hope it cures the SPEWING gas out of the exhaust issue!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you Alley! I was hoping so! It feeds it's own oil, thankfully so does this carb, I am planning on just crimping on the connector for the electric choke, and putting the throttle cable into the slide. It's a 19mm, so I just didn't see any difference!

I have a Vespa ET2 50cc in the shop, Short Story, It's SPEWING gas out of the exhaust, I'm going with a replacement carb. The carb that is on it is made by WEBER(19mm), Do you guys see any reason why I couldn't fit a 2 stroke Yamaha Jog carb (19mm)  EBAY/Yamaha Jog, 2 stroke Carb. |

Alright guys, I have been approved to buy a replacement carb for this bike. I have been looking at a couple online and don't see why I couldn't just get ANY 19mm 2 Stroke Carb(That mixes oil) and crimp the old adapter on the electric choke, so it will fit the one on the bike. Such As: www.ebay.com/itm/like/191187151295?lpid=82 The only thing it seems would have to change is the throttle cable END |

I'm 99% sure it's the tire being out of round, I can see a hump in the tire looking at it from the side, the ONLY thing to be done there is replace the tire. Cheapest one I have found is about $33.99. Before S/H. I also have a local shop I MAY use for this. www.jpcycles.com/product/210-0233?utm_source=PLAs&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=&device=c&network=g&matchtype=&gclid=CjgKEAjw-6WcBRCsgNjFy-2OuGYSJADf4R2sniNzZSLM3pMOKnmHdFFaWO8t10hcEiHiAwguxe3Mp_D_BwE\\\\\\\\\\\ On the handle bars, this scooter has a locking option, turning the ignition to the left, bars locked, I think @ some point, some one tried to steal, or just forgot the scooter was locked and moved the alignment. BUT, if hold the wheel with my legs and move the handle bars, I have an inch of play, Easily. I'll post pics of the tear down, tighten, and re-build on this tomorrow. |
