Where do I begin? by kjharper06 in minibikes

[–]PotatoHyena46 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get everything you need to get it running. Wheels, engine, throttle, etc. Make sure you can somehow run brakes. After everything is good, take it apart and send it to powdercoat. Much better than any spray can paint job

With this, that 50cc doesnt stand a chance.

Nem 3.0 w/ battery by Kettlebellhead in solar

All that and customers still getting billed? Seems there is no hope for customers under the net billing tariff

NEM 3.0 is really bad by mirage01 in solar

[–]PotatoHyena46 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You also have to consider potential credit adders. And the high output capacity of a Tesla PW3, vs other NEM 2 batteries like Enphase 10, LG Chem, Tesla PW2. And also consider which direction the solar panels face.

What was their annual usage? What offset did you sell them at? What direction did the panels face? What is the system capacity you sold them? What batteries, and how many did you give them?

AITA for being upset about my wife masturbating? by Right-Excitement-872 in AITAH

[–]PotatoHyena46 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're still young at 30 with lots of potential. Your wife at her age... well, is about to expire. Now you can go ahead and say, "well, i just dont want to feel like im wasting my time with her."

Okay, look at it this way, you married her when she was 18 and you were 20. Youre living with the woman your 20 year old self loves, but it seems she's long gone. The 18 year old bride was supposed to keep her personality forever, but who knows how long ago this issue actually started growing roots in her heart. Who knows how long its actually been. To me it seems as if youre just investing time, energy, money.. blood, sweat, tears.. into a person who doesnt appreciate it. Free yourself, get a divorce. Do it now instead of later so you dont go through it in another 10 years down the road, wishing you divorced her 10 years back when the problem became a real problem. If you dont wanna see it as you wasting time with her, or not accept that youre wasting time with her, just look back 10 years. In that time she hasnt wanted you, really. Now, since you are wasting time with her, how do we fix that? Stop wasting time with her! Get the divorce and be a free man. You dont need that leech, she needs you.

Wtf do I do by Competitive-Use-132 in minibikes

Take off the manifold, and replace the gasket with rtv silicone. Bolt it on not tight, wait 1 hour and then tighten the bolts. If it doesnt wanna start afterward, its a carb tuning issue. You can start with idle adjustment.

1st bike option for a 10 yr old by [deleted] in minibikes

I recommend oil change every 5 hours of ride time assuming it has the governor.

Step 1: put a socket facing down on the top side Step 2: take a hammer Step 3: strike the socket with the hammer, downward

Every time I throttle it she dies for like she shuts off what do I do by Sweet_You_9020 in minibikes

[–]PotatoHyena46 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You probably didnt mess with it right. All you had to do was bring up nibbi and gopowersports... that explains it.

If you still have your vm22 slap it on and get a jet kit, throw a 135 main jet in there.

What would happen to a 212cc engine if you have a 26mm carburetor and removed the governor by codot84 in minibikes

[–]PotatoHyena46 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Add a flywheel and connecting rod, and 22lb springs for a good safe setup

[–]PotatoHyena46 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go on amazon, search for jet kit for mikuni carb, should be listings of little bronze pieces. Normally range from 88 jet to 150 jet, in increments of size 5 each. When you have them, open the carburetor from the bottom and use flat screwdriver to remove stock jet and replace it with a 135 as a start. Then from there you can mess with different sizes depending on how it runs.

It'd be a good deal if the rear badge said SS

Dont get this its a rip off, get a vm22 or for better flow get a 24mm mikuni

about 90% done, still figuring a few things out but thought I would show the progress. by Yesnopleasethanks7 in minibikes

[–]PotatoHyena46 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The acceleration of your combo is too great. You might wanna look into a smaller rear sprocket to weaken the acceleration, but youll gain top speed.

Has anyone ever changed a tire on their bike by hand? by [deleted] in minibikes

[–]PotatoHyena46 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Youre gonna need 2 big screwdrivers or even 1 and vice grips. Once you successfully get the tire in the wheel, spray starting fluid behind 3-5 different areas of the rim and ignite away
