jessemk2 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Blew my orginal scooter budget the other night Scored something a bit racier/riceier Street Magic Not exactly old skool but diffently fun skool! Alway thought these things were pretty cool Its not mint but pretty tidy bit surface rust on triple clamps handle bars front forks,think they call it patina on old stuff. Needs good clean and service Plan is to get running good and enjoy Then when winter comes around do bit of a resto mod Saving now to get some go bit faster parts of the local os scooter parts guy. Already has a flash shiny expansion chamber which is a bonus 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sambo Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Niice, I loved my TR50! I had a lot of fun on it with dual purpose tyres, even if the suspension doesn't hold up to real offroad stuff. Being flexible enough to pest around anywhere was great. I don't have anything to add except appreciation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessemk2 Posted November 12, 2018 Author Share Posted November 12, 2018 Yeah suspension not really setup up for off road stuff done few stair jumps already and found limits of travel It seems way better than your average step through scooter thou and i prefer having footpegs to stand on and a gas tank to clamp with your legs to help steady things up This one going to be more for tearing up the city streets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jessemk2 Posted December 2, 2018 Author Share Posted December 2, 2018 So far have done 380 fun ks on this thing Did 68k trip yesterday Cdi has got rid of the speed limiter but lost what little torque it had so dies out on hills quite bad(50 ruckus beats it) So im thinking need more mods to take full advantage of cdi On the flat it winds out to the point im feeling sorry for it like its going explode if i hold it pinned haha,got be careful i dont get a speeding ticket now too. Its developed a rumble at higher speeds in the rear axle so probably have to look into that sooner rather than later Scapped footpegs twice second time lt lightened rear wheel and turned into a drift which was interesting But its been hard case get waves and smiles all the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingbrick Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 silly question but did the bike have some sort of ignition retard/advance in place to give better torque? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessemk2 Posted December 3, 2018 Author Share Posted December 3, 2018 Dont think so all ive done is swap cdi unit But think cdi changes ignition timing or some shit and maybe the stock jets/carb dont do it justice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the jetting isn't up to it you'll seize the engine or put a hole in the piston... But it should go really well until that point. Is the new CDI unit adjustable? You might be able to dial a bit more / less timing into the mid range to get more torque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessemk2 Posted December 8, 2018 Author Share Posted December 8, 2018 Cdi not adjusty Have ordered bigger carb /upgraded variator kit and 70cc kit so hopefully will last until then 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
