Here is my second bike:
Diamondback Sorrento 21 speed
26 x 1.95 mountain bike tire front 50psi, v brake
24 x 1.75 rear 35psi(max, little soft for my taste)
pedal side chain temporarily disabled, looking to go single speed bmx gearing
bgf 50cc engine
2.5 liter tank 40:1 synthetic ipone 2 stroke oil 93 octane ethanol free gas
nt carb with 72 jet clip in 2nd from bottom position
stock cdi
*44 tooth sprocket #41 chain
*stock chain tensioner w/ arrow case saver
torquer 2 pipe(works better for me than bgf banana pipe and stock pipe opened up)
tops out at about 20mph
can start with a slight roll and pull from 0-20mph
things ive tried and removed:
77 jet(too too rich)
bgf banana pipe(loud and less power)
jag cdi(still can't get this to work for me)
arrow reed block(leaked and bogged at full throttle)
Ive gotten it to run clean, and unless i find some quick simple bolt on performance upgrades, im probably going to save them for my other builds in the future. Ive been curious about better 50cc's but i mostly need something built for torque and 20-25 is as fast as i want to go on this bike.
Also looking at better low seat option. I love riding this bike because the seat is much lower than my other bike that goes 38mph. The question is do i want to get there real quick, or comfortably.
