Trouble in Paradise...

Got my intake from motomatic!!!!! was a little bummed about how expensive it was for such a small piece of welded steel haha... and even more bummed when the base thickness wasnt deep enough to have the washers push down on it to hold in place on the Polini 64. I fixed that problem easily, but frustrating none the less... The tubing was a bit short, though in the long run probably beneficial because less distance for the mixture to travel... but it did force me to use a throttle bendy... very close to the frame. I did try and kick it over last night, only a short effort though because the GF was there and growing tired of moped debauchery. I had great compression, the headlight turned on when I pedaled(<-- BRIGHT!) and it was doing that almost starting engine whine, i think i heard it almost fire up , but I'm unsure - Could have just been wishful thinking. I'm unsure of where my problem lies, if there is a problem, maybe I just need more time with it. Hopefully I'll be able to get her going tomorrow... That'd be SO sweet. Otherwise hopefully the ponies can help diagnose and get it running on Tuesday.

  2. I say if you're going to spend around $60 on a 'professional' intake, it better be God damn perfect.

    Just my 2 cents.

  3. 2 cents well spent, my thoughts exactly...
