I Maxed Out the Power on my Dream Scooter Build
YouTube transcript, YouTube translate
A quick preview of the first subtitles so you know what the video covers.
This is my 1995 Honda Elite 50 two-stroke scooter . And in this video, I'm taking this bike to the next level by installing some major upgrades and aftermarket parts , which should help this bike reach its full [music] potential . You see, I already did a build video with this exact scooter where I installed a 70cc big bore kit, exhaust, and other supporting mods , which made this bike way more powerful than it was stock . But you could definitely argue that I left out the most important piece , and you guys made it known in the comments . It's the carburetor . And before you go yelling at me again , let me at least explain my thought process . So, my goal with the initial build of this bike was to make it quick, cheap, and simple . So, when I put the big board kit on , I opted to save some money and just upjet the stock carburetor , open up the airbox, and it actually ran really well with that setup and made way more power than I expected . Well, at least it did until it started . After a while, the bike started running really rough and eventually wouldn't start at all . And in my last video with this bike, we completely tore into the stock carburetor . Cleaned everything. Made sure we had fresh gas, good spark, good compression , which helped for a little bit, but the bike still has trouble starting . It runs inconsistently, and it's left me stranded a [music] couple times . And I'm a humble guy. You know, I'm willing to admit when I'm wrong , and you guys in the comments were [music] right . And I think this is one of those cases . This stock carburetor has got to go. Which brings up a go od question. . what is going to take its place . So, of course, I reached out to my good friends at scooters swapshop.com [music] and asked them what components they would recommend for my current setup
