Sounds like your motor is going boom. I see from your other post this is the case. You don't run a new motor hard until it's fully broken in, especially if you intend to modify it. I wait till at least 10-15 tanks of fuel before trying to get more out of the engine, ANY engine. Four-strokes seem to take considerably longer to break in from my experience. Sounds to me like you helped the engine die....Sorry. Be more careful and hopefully you will get better service from these little gems.

I got a 28inch motorbike, and does get more speed then my old 26inch motor bike. I got a 80cc, with speed card, boost bottle, high performance spark plug, and plug wire, goes around 35 mph but got high compression head and expansion exhaust and 39 tooth sprocket coming in mail right now, should go 40 to 45 mph after those come in. Got 40 tooth sprocket on it now. But about 5mph dif on my 26 and 28 inch bikes.shft.
