no synching neccessary, there is only one cylinder. as long as you use silicon bronze, welding cables together is easy. this thread is old technology as far as i'm concerned though, moped cylinders and flat slides are where the power is.

i will periodically add pictures and the reasons why, for a few of the things that i have done in the quest for speed.

i did this to my combustion chamber to make it a more efficient "squish" type chamber. it helps to promote a more even flame travel and less risk of detonation. not to mention the added benefits of increased compression. the ideal size of the squish band is 1/2 of the bore area, which i have come pretty close to.

weld it up


face it and grind it out


i got five on it

I would think that it would all depend upon the size of the gears: how small is the smallest one could get? and how many steps does the bike offer to get to that point?[/QUOTE
put it this way, My bike is faster with a 44t than with a 36,38 tall gears slug the rpms down hard thus i loose massive speed

That's interesting. I don't know what the gearing is on a Schwinn Point Beach Cruiser (mine is better with 36t than 44t), but I'll bet your bike would have a 'sweet spot' with a top gear matched with just the right engine sprockets. It's just a matter of experimentation and figuring out what those gears are...

I know someone makes all kinds of gear sizes, but I can't think of who it is right now... This is an interesting consideration..
