I prefer a 110 because im buyin one on Friday :YEAH :YEAH Na but on a serious note, Ive rode everything as well and i prefer the fiddy motor ne day. lets face it you dont need power to wheelie unless ur a **** that dont know what a rear brake is.

I got a 88bb kit with a 20mm carb, and I like it a lot better for stunting than when it was stock. There is virtually no tugging of the bars to get it up, just a wrap of the throttle. It was tough getting used to. Im still not really used to second gear sit downs, it is a lot more twitchy.

See i dont ever use a jerking motion to make it wheelie. I always just clutch it up. I think it puts you into the balance point sooner. gives you more room in the powerband to work with. YO LENNY WHEN WE GONNA GO RIDIN?

I do the jerk ... haha! I've tried the clutch method a few times and almost died. It's no good for me.

Re: does size matter?

I love my 88. The wheel comes up like nothing and it makes highchairs and tricks like that so much easier. but alot of the time i miss my stock 50 engine that is when i ride my little brothers bike. Also when your hitting jumps in 3rd gear on a 88 you get alot more distance

Bigger is better! I get more power out of my 10 speed than I do out of a stock 50.

i have the 82cc kit and love it. it was a little on the twitchy side untill i went one up in the front now its great help with highchairs other than that i guess it could make things harder for someone that cant use the rear brake

Re: does size matter?

i rocked a stocker for days. the onlything i like my 88 for is highchairs, backwards riding wheelies and rolling burners.

I still say stock is the best for circles, and no handers.

i was out practicing circles lastnight at Mystik. i got a friend picking his 05 crf today and we're going to work on the bikes later. i'll call ya and see if you wanna swing by. what time are you picking up your motor?

so it seems that for stunting the stock motor is fine with the exception of highchairs (which i'm not doing yet cause i'm a wuss) and long endos. i've got a Thumpstar 125cc coming and i was debating on whether or not to attempt stunting it. i think i'll just keep that thing for the dirt since everyone says "go big for the jumps". :YEAH

just out of curiosity, for $$ purposes, i hear fab can hook up a bbk for a good price. how much was it and what kind of kit......does it include a carb?

Im buyin the trailer and motor right after work so I should be done around 7 or so. Bro just look on ebay every now and then. I always see bigbore kits go for pretty cheap.

You can do anything with a stock motor. Its just funner when your bike does 65 and has a 1down 3up tranny.... ****

Re: does size matter?

I like my chinese P.O.S. 72cc motor. More power than stock, but still smoother than an 88. also has a 4 speed manual so you can rip through the ghetto faster and clutch up spreaders and stuff.
