Tight fit (real tight!) Pulse by Kettler comfort bike-Sick Shifter Kit

Where did you get the intake manifold? It's awesome!

apple, I made it with copper tubing. Thanks,

I recently changed the crank side sprocket on the shifter kit to an eleven tooth. It makes it better for crusing. The engine turns less rpms at speed. It added one mph to the top end, the one time I tested it. It runs faster in the lower gears though. The freewheel on the back wheel was a six speed. The 1st gear was a 28 tooth and with the higher gearing on the shifter kit it didn't take off as well. Even pedaling I would have to give it more throttle than before when taking off from a stopped position. I killed the engine a few times. I bought a seven speed freewheel from the local bike shop which has a 34 tooth 1st gear and a 14tooth 7th gear. They installed the freewheel for free(it just unscrews if you have the tool) as I had to buy a derailleur and shifter for the new freewheel. I installed the derailleur and shifter. None of this change was difficult and cost $56.00 for all of it. You have to fiddle with the derailleur to get it right but still not difficult. The bike will take off and pull better than before (I changed to the 11 tooth) in 1st (I always pedal a little from a dead stop) and all the higher gears are better for crusing as well. I think it is an improved setup.

my shifter kit is on the way to me. i am on the east coast sbp is on the west coast so i might not get it until friday. But i cant wait, my engine starts to vibrate excessively from over reving at about 25mph, with my stock sprocket. So i should be able to cruise at 25mph now as my "80cc" motor seems to have a good amount of mid range power. my bike has 7 gears in the back, which i hope gives me a wide enough range.

It's cool that people are arranging their cassettes to fit their riding and terrains. Something we had in mind. That real low granny gear is nice and a nice jump to second.

Man I love these j kits one day I willl! be be getten mine I will have gear ques though

I drilled the rivets and pulled the cap off the muffler on my pipe today. It was packed with fiberglass(i guess that is what it is). I pulled most of it out. I also drilled a welding wire that was across the opening of the inner pipe. I replace the cap with screws. I hit 38 mph on level road twice today. This is up from 36 mph previously. The muffler is the only change I made. It isn't much louder at all. Thought I would pass this along! Oh yeah, I have 393 miles on the bike now.

where did you get the expansion chamber? does the wider crank that came with the shifter kit give the clearance needed for the pull start or is your engine higher then your crank arms? i just installed the shifter kit and i am thinking of getting a pull start. But i am definitely getting an expansion chamber just having a difficult time finding one that's not for a larger motor.

I can't find a record of where I bought the pipe but I believe it was here Cag Daytona, 47cc pocket bike performance pipe, HP exhaust, more power, go fast, pocket bike faster, 2-stroke 47/49cc. It is this pipe anyway. I had to bend the left crank arm a little to clear the rope starter. Actually i wrapped it in a rug, laid it on my garage floor and hit it with a sledge hammer.

not sure if i want to go the sledge hammer route. Thank you for the link.
