MOPED ARMY

Thank you for all of the info!

I will remember that went setting the timing and will be certain to check the gap. I have the treatmetric jammer clutch. What colored springs would be best for that particular clutch? The stiff ones still?

I cannot find any Estoril pipes since they are all sold out.

This was the pipe I was considering? Would this perform similar to an Estoril sidebleed

Thanks!

Can’t stand the jammer clutch because shoes are not asbestos lined which means you can’t use synthetic motor oil you have to use junk tranny fluid, can’t stand the side bleed peoples pipe either as well as junk India made CDI, so you’re on your own sorry,

Wonderful stock six wire point ignition, estroil pipe, stock 2 shoe clutch with thick springs:

The video is over five years old but My set up was built 13 seasons ago and still runs perfecto with maintenance to ring piston and ignition.

You’ll be lucky to get one season out of what you’re trying to do and there’s no way you’re going to get the 58+mph I do with great take off for the years I do.

The weak links are the India CDI, aftermarket clutch which goes sparkless at the worst times that has Kevlar lined shoes not asbestos, a pipe that’s not a derestricted estroil plus you have no clue on gearing and whatever else you did wrong by buying aftermarket crap when stock euro stuff is superior,

Right now is the 13th season of this wonderful maroon maxiluxe and it blasts almost all step/most any mopeds and many small motorcycles and scooters, including Honda mb5, elite 50-80cc, Yamaha 60-80cc all of them are all in my rearview mirror,

Today I even blew by Toyota Prius like it was standing still at 55-57mph,

Sweet reliable set up, 1980 maxiluxe built in late 1979, oh ya still has the stock brass bushing non needle crank too. I’ve had several bikers/Harley Davison owners ride this bike and they Couldn’t believe it was a moped,

It put a smile on my face today like it did years ago :)

I hope you live with a few miles of where you ride because you’ll never be able to ride all day every day and make it home with all the crap you’re using on your build,

I bought one of those MLM peoples sidebleed and it works best hanging on the wall... It de-tuned my polini w/19 dell and Dio reeds... I run 3 polini e50's w/same set-up 2 of them have the sidebleed Estoril and one with de-re-Estoril pipes... The MLM peoples pipes have small chambers and are built thick and might work good on milder cylinders....

Post for used in Buy & sell, Treats have been out for such a long time... I sure hope they get more in...

Puch black pipe/chrome pipe/raw pipe performs very similarly to estoril, a little better all around. I imagine it would do well paired with a polini.

I thought the auto retard would be important on this particular kit. I already bought the cdi anyways, but do have a points setup I could go back to. Thanks!

honestly, i have to second or third not using those treats cdis. I chased issues with them on my polini setup for months until i swapped it out.

also, one of the fastest polinis i ever saw used points, so ymmv

and even though roffman comes across as a dick, i also kind of agree on the two shoe. (edited)

Hey fred, just a quick question.

Do polinis e50 kit ever 4 stroke?

Im running a dmp crank, bing 15, 2.17 85jet timing at 15, gearing 16x45 with tons of torque and a top speed of 45mph. B6hs plug

Bike will start with a 77, 79, 81 jet and run but no 4 stroking unlike the cheapo 70cc treat kit I was running before

+1 to Boyeson dual stage reeds for sure. And with a 15 bing run between a 92 to 95 jet. Make sure you have NO AIR LEAKS ANYWHERE!!! Time low (14-15 degrees) with points because temps near or at WOT will drop like a rock. Or run auto retarding hpi like I do. Get a proma or a nice derestricted estoril pipe. At WOT I'm getting 305f at first and after like a minute or so it actually drops down to around 260-270f and holds there. At "normal" moped speeds and in stop-n-go ~25-35 mph temps are between 205-250f. And no I'm not running too rich...I already checked (edited)
