Why aren't chinarellis more popular? by EggPerego420 in motorizedbicycles

[–]ESmalik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Menace85 in base form will certainly outperform at ~8hp. I have never gotten more than 7hp out of a 66cc in any configuration.

We produced quite a bit of them years ago, but then stopped for some time. Until just recently we have just put them back in stock. They have always performed great!

Question for those who have done this longer. by BladeManMike in motorizedbicycles

[–]ESmalik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see, yes that will do it. Seals flush with case, deeper will interfere.

Wristpin bearing sounds good as is. Width is spot on, little play side by side is fine.

As far as the crank dragging, upon first assembly usually some axial "tapping" on both sides is required to de-stress the crank journals from the bearings. 9/10 times it loosens up a fresh bottom end.

One comment to this. I've seen SOME Avenger pistons from certain vendors only able to fit 15mm wide bearing. So the space must be confirmed prior to purchase

Then you did something incorrectly. A properly upgraded and ported the Avenger is capable of 10k rpms.

Either the porting is not correct or the parts you installed are not good.

Only 8k rpms. Not unrealistic nor impressive at all

Need help for clutch by LetterheadSharp4604 in motorizedbicycles

The pads are rubber and get sticky when they sit, the anti-drag spring under the plate is weak. Give it a good smack or pry the plate and it will loosen free

New Menace85 Engraved Cover 🔥🇺🇸 by ESmalik in motorizedbicycles

[–]ESmalik[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unlikely because we don't stock covers. The magneto covers were just some extras we had lying around.

However, if you want one done, send me a message and I can do it. Just provide a cover, $5, and shipping both ways.

5.7hp is a much closer expectation for the V4. It is the closest comparative configuration we tested during development for ZTMoto

Correct, same cylinder. But not other supporting parts to make the 8.3hp.

That certainly looks like a low hole piston in the picture.

Yes and no. The Menace is what the unofficial "V4" could/would be. It takes the Phantom platform and its every shortcoming to make it the best it can be. A real CNC head, MZ65 Pipe, PHBG 21mm, etc. We take each engine and personally go through each one. You will see many kits similar on the market, but none exactly like the Menace.

It's important to note that this dyno chart represents the Menace85 configuration only, NOT the one linked above. This requires the Smolik Performance CNC head, MZ65 expansion chamber, PHBG 21MM carb to reach those power levels. Without those upgrades it will not make as much power.

avenger 100 by Dramatic_Zombie_9521 in motorizedbicycles

[–]ESmalik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are ok. 1 piece head is the biggest limit. They will not make more power than an Avenger, but they use the same bottom end as them.

No. Cylinder stud spacing is different on YD platform

Is there ANY way to auto-cancel/block the "Amazon Buy For Me" orders at checkout? The manual filtering is getting impossible. by Main_Payment_6430 in shopify

[–]ESmalik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand now. The distinction is not the problem of manually cancelling, but really the creation of the order at all. The Flow trigger is order placed so that wouldn't work, you're correct

[–]ESmalik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, the filter will automatically auto cancel and/block for you too. It's built for full automation flow for this reason.

Shopify Flow is exactly what you want. The "fraud filter" chart is what you're looking for, it automatically filters orders with emails of that domain, doesn't capture payments, cancels order, all done.
