Hi David.

Cunninghams can help with everything you ask.

 

I have no idea what make or what the brake parts come from.

 

Your local motorcycle shop will also be able to get the parts / spares.

Hello David,

I can only tell you what my 50cc uses. I think the front should be the same but I'm not sure about the back.

Her front pads are the same as a Honda Vision.

Hope this helps you,

Jaquelyn

Thanks Jaquelyn.  I don't need them yet, but always useful to know when I have an urgent requirement and cannot wait for a shipment from Cunninghams.

 

Any idea what the carb is, as I am thinking of fitting a new carb/air filter to improve performance.  (Not increase, just improve).

Hi dave

 

The carb / Air Filter will make almost zero diference to performance.

Can I also suggest that going any faster makes a pod VERY unstable.

There is a restrictor on the engine to stop you blowing it up / Going any faster.

 

You can play with the weights in the rear drive to change acceleration.

Heavier weights mean the gearing changes more quickly.

 

A good service always helps to keep things in good order.

The air filter is a standard car part. I think halfords stock them. The part number is listed on the forum somewhere.

Valves don't really move.

Spark plug is a standard part.

Use good quality "branded" standard 10 W 40  oil. Semi synthetic if you really must.

Hi Alex,

  I am not looking to increase the top speed, when I say performance I mean acceleration.  I have just had my carb stripped down and cleaned, as it was full of gunk, and it has a K&N filter on it, rather than the original one.  I have the original one in the boot, but most of the fitting screws are missing.  I was thinking of getting a new carb/filter to help with starting and running, as it had been running lumpier than school custard, and although it is great now I was hoping to avoid a reoccurrence once the cold weather comes in.

Cheers,

Fer

Hi Jaquelyn,

  do you know what year/model the pads were?  Having a quick look online comes up with several options.  Also, possibly stupid question, but were they front or back pads?  (I don't want to jump to any conculsions).

 

Cheers,

C
