  2. drivetrain-wise, would there be enough room to do something like this?? separate pitbike gearbox running off belt drive to the flywheel/pulley...

    fair amount of engineering/winging it to get a good fit, but the separate gearbox could be cool.

    otherwise you can get new variators/torque converters on TM - like the TAV2 ones or golf cart ones.

  3. Have I got the right idea about the compression? Just whip the head off and see whats going on?

    yeah probably means worn loose-ish rings? hopefully its not all slappy but a rebore is pretty cheap. you can get top end  big bore kits for them pretty easy too.

    clean the carb first - dunno if theyre points or CDI but check points if it has them. Carb + points will be most of your starting issues sorted

  4. Superchargers could be a cheaper option than messing with EFI etc, lots of cool small aisin ones on TM for 300ish. make the flywheel into a pulley etc? 

    Old mate at elsberg-tuning.dk does them on honda 50 engines etc

  5. Aliexpress has carbs cheap as chips. chinese dellortos or mikunis etc etc whatever sizer you want. surely chinese carbs cant be tooo bad, theyre simple enough to start with.

     

     

    You could try 1977 mopeds or treatland etc but shipping sucks arse from US
