Finally got around to doing a highly requested build on my Honda Elite SR50!! Ended up installing a 70cc kit, exhaust, and a bunch of other mods to literally make this thing twice as fast as it used to be. It may be the most fun bike I own now....

People like the guy that was messaging u step by step are the reasons i love the car/motorcycle/scooter community. Ive literally fixed my broken down cars based off ppls comments and being told where to look. Most of the time with vehicles jts knowing where to look for an issue and knowing how to disassemble/reassemble. Its rare to find someone that will walk you through the entire process like this, but i guess the point of this comment is... ppl like that are still out there, And those are the ppl that make me love this community. Find one, make friends and build engines together for life

Always check ring gap. At least .004" per inch of bore. A 70 kit is usually around 47mm which is about 2 inches, so rings should have .008" gap minimum. Also, it's important to make sure the cylinder ports are chamfered. Many kits require you to do this. I know Malossi is higher quality but I still would have checked that. It's extremely important. I also would suggest removing the engine, as it's only a couple more bolts and allows you to put the thing up on a table where you're not crawling around on the ground. It makes it way easier and more pleasant to do the work. Although that just might be my old-man-back speaking...

This is what most of us in Europe run for a budget, sporty wheelie build. The 70cc Malossi cast iron performs well. Al tough a lot of people do prefer the DR70 cast iron above the Malossi kit. Both seem to perform about the same with the Malossi having a tiny bit more top end. With a full volume crank set, a 19 mm carb with a good expansion chamber exhaust like a Yasuni R if you can find one in the states, a bigger intake manifold and thicker reed valves or a reed valve kit this moped wil fly! It will throw you back without any effort. You can go a bit lighter on the rollers as well 6.5 is the sweet spot for now. Have fun, stay safe!

The Honda Vision was the one that started it all for me. I was 6 years old, my then 15 uncle and his mate had found one in the bush, probably stolen and abandoned there for a long time. They showed up with that thing and asked if I wanted to try it, I'll never forget the terror and excitement I felt as I twisted the throttle of a motorised bike for the first time in my life. Now, 25 years later I'm still hooked to anything that goes Brum Brum. Spent my teenage years in Italy riding modified scooters to school, after school and anytime in between that, those were the days!

@@TwoStrokeJthe secondary pulley- when you got to the contra- did you pull the 2 pulley halves for a clean and regrease? The rear pulley likes to be clean and LIGHTLY greased. CVT= constant velocity transmission. In this application, it is the clutch and transmission. The belt wears, turns to dust, belt dust all in that area. Excessive grease in this area is NOT appreciated. I'll have to check out that ZEP cleaner, my go-to for a while has been Maxima Clean-Up. "Primarily used for grimy m/c chains", it's pretty good stuff. Clean bikes are easier to see leakage problems if (and when) they occur.

Good job man! As a fellow 50cc rider i suggest you get a 21mm carb like a Polini CP21 or a cheaper PHBG21 from dell'orto, also Malossi reeds, intake manifold (21mm diameter) and a cone air filter would change the bike greatly without affecting reliability.

It is SO fun to hear these names for parts and carbs... I live in Norway and when i was like 17 (33 years ago) Me and all the guys got the 7HP or the insane 12HP kits for our mopeds with malossi and dell'orto parts!! I did not even know they were in buisness still. I had a Suzuki ZR 50 that i put a 12HP kit on with the carb and performance exhaust but it was so insane it twisted my frame and the bike became undrivable. it did 110 km/h top speed but with a slow acceleration. Bought a Suzuki 50 SL instead the chopper version and chilled down to the 7HP kit wich kept the frame from twisting

@kramnull8962 5 ай бұрын

That's the thing, with these kits, everything from hills, to daily atmospheric changes change the jetting. You can be good with the jetting for flat roads, but go to pull a 2 mile hill and they will go lean. Like him, I was suggested an 85 jet for the 21mm and a 90 would still be lean going uphill. I even installed a 91-100. If I got it rich enough on a hill the flat roads were running super rich. Only thing I could think of was for one, the cable that adjusted the 2 stroke oil feed was constantly shrinking and expanding, alternating the oil into the feed. Not to mention the dang rear pulley even a brand new one, would get worn in no time and not change gears properly. No spring is going to overcome those pins inside that rear pulley half from digging into the slots they ride in; hanging usually in mid range gearing on the rear pulley, never highest gears or the lowest gears. Kinda like the "Throttle position sensors"; they used to get an area of the gas pedal that would start to glitch while driving @ 45 mph because that is where the gas pedal is mashed to 90% of the time. That wasn't a metal quality thing like with the rear pulley, but just saying the most used gear is going to cut right into that part of the rear pulley slots first and foremost. These gears are made for 75 pound people..... And going 2-5 miles tops. And flatlands....

That video reminded me my childhood - before (and even little after 2010) those 50 cc scooters was a go. Almost every teenager in my country had one and we even had our own community. Imagine a dozen of scooters zooming through the streets in line, popping wheelies on a secluded streets, working on them with friends. Performance mods is one thing but the cosmetic was also important - two tone paintjobs, polished aluminium parts... Heck, we even had a guys with a sound systems built inside the storage space under the seat (built from one/two speakers and a car radio or amplifier). Now I'm a 30+ years old guy and I see scooters being used for food delivery and casual cruising to work but there is no communities like those from 15 years ago. And no crazy builds. And some of them have electric motors. Now hear me out - with the set up like this I think You should easly achieve even 60 mph! Also, if I were You, I would entirely throw out the oil pump and do the oil and gasoline mix by myself. Then, for the new cylinder set I would add a bit more oil for the breaking period ;)

Nice vid man, this scooter (Honda Vision) was quite popular in the early 90's here in the Netherlands, this is also the time scooters became very popular because you didn't have to learn how to shift and because of the CVT it wasn't slow like older automatic shifting mopeds and a lot cheaper to insure then a manually shifted moped. Illegal Scooter/moped tuning still is a thing here but harder to get away with these days, damn cops! A bigger carb something like 18mm and a better intake&reed valve should make it even faster.

Getting away with it isn't hard, it just costs way more money. My looks-stock Agility 50 has been modified with EFI, so when the cops pull me over for dyno testing (rollenbank) I just don't poke the app on my phone that switches to the "sport" fuel map. Cops invariably know something is up, because it cuts off at about 5000rpm instead of 6500rpm and it usually shows up as 52-54 kph. Even if they take off the cover plate that would house the CDI normally, all they'll find is an ECU without its Bluetooth sticker on it. If they open the carburettor door in the bottom of the seat, they'll see an injector and throttle-by-wire intake. Mostly I can make the cops go away after arguing about how it's for fuel economy. Worst things I've happen so far is a cop breaking the quarter turn throttle handle, because he thought it was jammed by some sort of restrictor mechanism. And one that asked "so where's the carburettor" while staring at the fuel injector assembly. With the sports fuel map loaded, it does about 65kph, which is fast enough. I've done quite a bit of modifications, but mostly because my friend bought a new cnc lathe for his shop, so yeah custom final drive, custom camshaft, reveno clutch pack, it's mostly "because we can" kind of things.

A bigger carb and a new airfilter is necessary, as the engine is basically being suffocated right now. The scooter won't get any more complicated or any less reliable, it will just run better and make way more power. And you shouldn't worry about having to tune the carb, as it really isn't that difficult. You just pick the right jet, which doesn't take too long through trial and error, and then you adjust the air/fuel ratio and the idle. After all that your malossi kit should max out at about 70 mph.

V cool. Back in 2009, I bought a fully mod Honda Dio scoot & its was a frikkin weapon. Put ear2ear LOLs everytime I jumped on it. Pulled every single car (& lotsa bikes) at the lights every single time. Wish I still had it. Watching your vid brought back great memories. Heck I might just start to look at the local buysell for another one 😁

If you took of the shock, then its only one long "pivoting" bolt holding the engine to the frame (remember the fuel line and a few wires).. its much easier to work on if you take it of and put it on a bench :) Also, if you can work on one of these 50cc scooters, you can work on them all.. 90% of them have the same engine (Motori Minarelli) with only the angle of the cylinder and one of two lenghts of the vario part of the block :) If you wanna learn more out em, watch the europeans, they have had a crazy market in it.. Since you have to be 18 to drive a car, and 16 for scooters, most if not all boys have scooters, many many many used to tune them (myself incl) Great fun! Remember seeing people going from 3-4 hp standard to 20+ hp with NOS and stuff.. It got kinda wild :p Also, here's one of my fav old vids from way back.. Thought you'd like the wheelie skills ;) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/priqbM1ilrXcg3k.html

be prepared to change the piston sooner since 70cc wears out faster and if you do alot of top speed pulls they wear out really fast, also a bigger carb will give you more power but this is as good as it needs to be

Ayye from Europe here , this reminds me of my Yellow Rocketas it was called in streets. I still have it but it's disassembled. Piaggio NRG Mc3 2003, top speed 135-140km/h , fun fact it wasnt fully modified , maybe like 85% modified , Having Hebo Manston p17 top end , malossi crank with crankshaft , belt , clutch , and all that ofc . He has it stock carburator Dellorto 17.5, and some other things was untouched , so there was possibility to make it faster, but already reaching 120kmph you start to feel really risky since its wheels are so small , its so easy to get death wobble at higher speeds , if you arent carefull. I gave it to my brother he forgot to check the coolant , and it overheated top end was gone. at that time didn't have the money for same top end. its like 500 euros , just for top end. Hoping to rebuild it to its glory days in the near future. So i can bring it out.

you can find alot of power in a little 50 cc engine. current topspeed record with one of those is 233 kmh 144.7 mph usually you find a ring on the front pulley that prevent it from coming all the way together. yank that one out and you have like double the speed. the roller weights is whats used to trim it to fit your drive style. they decide when in rpm range it engages and how agressive it should do it. look at some european scooter tuning, it will blow your mind.

17:37, when you tighten the front pully you need arrange the belt on the higher side of the pully.. You need to press the rear variator so it can goes down while arrange the belt on the front pully to goes up. If you tighten it with lower side, the belt will pinched and after the engine running there will be gap which will loosen the nut..

Which can get annoying if you drive it daily and are counting on it to get you places. The fun factor of a geeked up scooter is incredible though

@@EbonyPope stuff always breaks when you install parts like these. I knew several guys who broke quality crankshafts playing around like that. You're constantly having to adjust the carburator, replacing the clutch springs, replacing the clutch itself, the variator weights, valves break easily, etc. All that stuff wears, breaks and gets dirty at a faster rate.
