    What a project

    Undecided on the powerplant yet wether i just give it a basic rebuild or go for the big power and get the 50cc kit I took the head and cylinder off and everything other than the head gasket looks to be in almost new condition. I knew it had a bad head gasket because it was very hard to start after it was warm. It only has a O-ring for a gasket and it looked to be dry cracked
    Qute little thing aint it

    I never thought that thing would wheelie so easy and toss my ass. I didn't even try, it only needed a small blip and it was all over

    It's got 10hp and weighs 48lbs, it's got a power to weight ratio higher than a ZX12 What would you expect when you blip the throttle with so much power... haha
