I've been running a Grubee Skyhawk 66cc for about two months now. It's tons of fun but I noticed that I blast through my fuel a lot faster than I had expected. I have a 2.5 L tank, and use my bike to get to and from campus (1 mile each way tops) and guzzled my way through it in less than 4 days. I thought it might be the rich starting mixture, but the problem persisted as I leaned the mixture out.
I took it on a 18 mile romp and checked the tank before and after, and noticed almost no change in the fuel level, so I'm thinking the fuel might just be evaporating as it sits. All the hoses are clamped down tight, and I close the fuel valves when I'm not riding. I notice no leakage around the carb or the cap either.
Any ideas?
Not to hijack my own thread or anything, but a few links on my drivechain keep getting kinked. I lubed them up with some light oil, and then as the problem recurred, hit the problem links with some heavy grease, but this has yet to help.
Thanks,
Maldekai
