omg kitted maxi = superdork with speed

hahahaha oh man.

never had a maxi before, let alone a kitted one. here is the setup:

maxi luxe moped i bought for $200.

treats "poor-lini" 70cc reed valve puch cylinder kit $120.00

tomos A35 reedcage used $10

treats 3 shoe adjustable blue spring race clutch $38

JCAMS 25mm racing intake manifold with mikuni VM20 carburetor $135

jamarcol 'fuego' black boss pipe for puch maxi $63

treats maxi fuel cock party $17

so i actually have $583 into this thing.

it's sooo awesome and dork spec! love this thing.

why are mopeds so much fun?

i'm supposed to sell it, so i'd sell it for what i have into it, but dude i fell in love with it. it's the ultimate like classic dork moped!

so like, with this blue clutch, you turn it all the way in, and then what, out 720 degrees (according to jcams) to tune it the best ? or what? does that wear out the life of the clutch alot faster? i kinda like it just the way it is. who knows.

I haven't set the points yet. What are ideal reccomendations for points setting with kitted peds ?

Re: omg kitted maxi = superdork with speed

Normal point gap should be fine. Mine were always set at stock and that's what I've read. I am curious about that e50 race clutch and the ways to tune it so puch people need to chime in.

720 out

ok so fuck this blue clutch. i put the stock in and it's way more dork spec. easier for the girl to ride also.

Re: omg kitted maxi = superdork with speed

turn the springs in till the are about to pop out! Then you good!

ok, let me see if i can get the clutch tuned better then. i'm going to ride the rs50 around a bit and then i'll come back and see if i can't get this thing running better.

Re: omg kitted maxi = superdork with speed

post your top speed! (once you've broken it in of course!)

ok, yeah, i hate the blue clutch. it's better with the regular clutch. maybe it needs different fluid or something. If the potential buyer tomorrow doesn't want it or whatever then i'll bring it to one of you puch tuner guys to set the clutch properly.

also really debating the treats cdi once it's back in stock.

it seems to be geared really low. like, it doesn't feel like it can go faster than 38 right now , it soudns like it's spinning 02948209384 rpms.

Re: omg kitted maxi = superdork with speed

What's you gearing matt? you need to go to something like 15 40

Re: omg kitted maxi = superdork with speed

i don't know what the gearing is. do i have to count it or are there numbers on the gears?

really?

What the fuck does dork spec mean?

Re: omg kitted maxi = superdork with speed

There are numbers, but you might have to counnt them because they could be on the other side.

Re: omg kitted maxi = superdork with speed

man, none of my sprockets have been numbered. I got screwed.

Re: omg kitted maxi = superdork with speed

Really?

Ok i counted it, and i think it was 14:45 gearing. either 14:45 or 15:45. i think 14:45 though. i counted the front, and read 45 on the rear.

but i sold it this afternoon :( i took it on a long ride all day today, like 30 miles or so blasting with friends. that was a riot. it was aweasome. can't believe it. but it's gone. oh well, i hop ethe new rider loves it.
