Honda GC160

[Bob Campbell]

Hi Guys,

This might not be the right place for this but I feel that this is where there is more scratch built bikes than any other location on this forum. Please feel free to move if necessary.

With that being said, how do you guys feel about a Honda GC 160 in a BT bike?

Northern tool has them on sale for $189 (reg. $239.99)

I have found clones for about $139 but I feel that the real thing is probably worth the extra $50.

How do the clones compare to the Hondas? Also I have been looking at GC 120's through GC 200's. Would one be a better choice than another in the range due to size, weight, or some other reason?

Thanks,
Bob C.

Do you have a link to a clone GC 160?
thanks
The only other GC model is a GC 190 or GS 190
There is no such motor as a GC 120 or 200
Would be GX 120 or GX 200 which is a different motor family.

CCC, Ive been watching this. Looks good!

MBR, Sorry, I've gotten my GC's and GX's confused. Looking at the go kart sites, the GX's look like they will be the better choice.

Still wondering if the clones compare well against the Hondas.

Thanks,
Bob C.

Small Engine Warehouse has had GC160s for $170 for a few months, but they are constant-speed throttle models. Kinda crazy, that's Huasheng money!

Honda GC 160 cc QHA-1 remote throttle guy's or QHA-H which is hard to find

You could also add the AGK carb package which is a 22mm Mikuni with adapter and filter. This is what I do and its easy. The bike is easy to tune and gives it more performance.

I just started getting a gc160 ready for my next project. Which carb Did you use on yours c.c.c.? Is it the same carb Jr used on the gc190?

This is the setup we used. I run this carb on all my bikes. Just a re-jet is all that is needed.
