Thanks for this idea! I have installed this carburettor on my motocompo today and it did... ...Absolutely nothing. After digging around more I found out I installed the air filter poorly. That'll teach me.

I enjoy watching all your motocompo videos. Anymore coming up soon?

I'm restoring one at the moment so lots more comming. But I'm also building a house so not a lot of spare time :) I'm finishing up the next video this week I think.

Any updates my friend? I'd love to see so much more from this amazing restoration!

Nice video. I have also uploaded red and white Motocompo restores and modifications to KZfaq.

Awesome video. Do you know where I can buy that threaded black plastic piece that hold the choke cable to the carb? I just bought a ‘compo and mine is missing that piece.

@wannesfromwood2572 2 жыл бұрын

Pretty rare part. It comes with the carb if you buy a new one..

It's a great great Motocyle! !! So much better as the Monkey Cycle! ! One good great Idea from the 80's.

Do you know what that metallic clicking / tapping sound is? My Motocompo has it as well and it just doesn't sound healthy for the engine.

@wannesfromwood2572 2 жыл бұрын

You mean when it's running? That the 2-stroke sound. 4-stroke says "vrooom" and 2-stroke "ding-ding-ding" :)

Love the videos. Do you have the continuation?

@@wannesfromwood2572 Understand. Just been renovating mine this year so I know how mutch time it takes. I'm thinking of buying a motocompo and I found your video's very informative.

Do they make a replacement carburetor for that? I looked here in the US but can only find an original one and they’re expensive, close to 200 dollars. A less expensive would be nice, thanks for the video and ride safe.

@wannesfromwood2572 2 жыл бұрын

They still make the QR50 carb new and it fit's perfectly. That also costs around 200$ so that's about the price if you want a new carb for a motocompo.

Hi man great job on the Motocompo! I’m starting your same job but I got it with a broken tailligt lens, can you help me finding one? Thx Jack!

@wannesfromwood2572 Жыл бұрын

Nice, good luck! :) The "honda motocompo UK" group on facebook is a good place to find parts. Watch out for scammers though, they apear on a regular base there..

@miguelpagansr6128 Жыл бұрын

Doy you know if this works in a Honda express2? It’s a 1979 model and your part a lot like my original one on my bike

@wannesfromwood2572 Жыл бұрын

That should work. As far as I'm aware the engine of the express and motocompo are identical.

@miguelpagansr6128 Жыл бұрын

@@wannesfromwood2572 thank you for the info, I kinda had a feeling about that. I might get it for my express, sometimes when it sits around and I put gas in it she leaks. I’ll try polishing the needle seat and see what happens.

@miguelpagansr6128 Ай бұрын

Would you know if the carburetor is 38mm spacing for the mounting holes? I'm just worried that it might not work on mine, thanks.

@xdwx6168 2 жыл бұрын

Which 2T engine oil did you use?

@wannesfromwood2572 2 жыл бұрын

I used a brand that's really common here called "Kroon" but any 2stroke oil for motorbikes will be suitable for the motocompo.
