westy's CRF50 build

[pb performance]

Hay westy you dont happen to have the stock seat and want to sell it do you ?? I got my son a pitster pro ss 50 for xmas and it's just a tad to tall for him and a stock CRF50 seat would make it perfect !!!

Let me know hay ??

hey PB, sorry man haven read this thread for a while, you can Have the seat, Just you pay postage. I will get down to the Post office and have a look for ya. whats your post code? I live in the sticks, so could take a while to post.

just went for a ride, shock is freakin sic. but putting the front springs and fork legs in has made the front end a bit nervous, especially over braking bumps. might look at a 12 inch rim for the front. front end also likes to tuck in a bit when your on the brakes hard, bigger rim will fix that, and maybe better tyres. and some gearing changes are needed. after riding my 450 i forgot how slow the little think actually is. will get a 15,16, and prolly a 36. i did prolly a 15min moto on this little track and my shopping list now includes:
- tb 88cc kit with cam stock head
- 12 inch front rim
- Maxxis tyres
- longer shifter
- different front brake lever
- longer swinarm
whoever told me to stop my spending here and buy a china, probably a good idea, but im hooked now. gotta start stashing money in a seperate bank account so i can buy this stuff without the mrs knowing.

went for a ride today. the little 50 gets really tired after a while. gotta hurry up and get that 88cc kit.

also, when i got home, it was blowing a puff of black smoke when I revved it. normally that would say rich pilot jetting. but its still got stock jetting, a pro circuit pipe and a Uni filter. if anything it would be super lean. but is actually running really well.

what else can cause black smoke anybody know?

thanks for my factory sponsor "Hillz Racing" for these donuts

looks like in this pic my subframe is a little bent. probable cause= failed backflips

the ATO is going to give me a fair bit of my income back. after I pay the bills, pay out the mrs car loan, buy her something nice, I should have enough for the little weapon to have a makeover.

Skip buying something nice for the missus , and give it a even bigger makeover!

[westy465]

first time I really got to test it today, and there is one mother of a flatspot. it was running rich, changed the main to a #82, did the plug colour test and its fine. but from 14 throttle to full throttle it really dies. going to drop the needle clip down one and see wat that does. any tips for the 20mm TB carby?

 

[The_GDFP]

Rich at 82? We run 89, normally. Does it bog when riding or just garage-revving?

 

[westy465]

got it runnin good now. was bogging down in the shed. got a 87 main and needle clip half way. it hoots now! smokes the back tyre easy now.
