I've never had problems using a standard NT carburetor. I find it way better than the CNS carburetors. Even put one on a 4 stroke engine & ran better than the stock 4 stroke carburetor which was giving me nothing but problems. The only real benefit of the Wolbro carburetors is they can have the gas tank fit anywhere on the bike like if it's below or above the motor depending on your setup. My 35cc Honda friction drive bike uses a Wolbro carburetor & runs great. But on a 2 stroke in-frame motor a Wolbro is a bit overkill. The NT is cheap simple & doesn't need mods to get it to fit or work. Just pop it on the manifold hook up the cable & fuel line & your ready to go also dont forget to tune the idle screw a bit by turning the screw in a little. I find that one & a half or two revolutions of the screw in works great.
Hello your videos are very helpful thankyou. ...are planning on doing one of the actual mounting of the jackshaft kit onto the bike. ...ive been lookin and cant seem to find one my kit is on its way and id just like to get it rite i ordered the deluxe heavy duty usa kit
A very smart decision on your behalf to get the Deluxe Heavy Duty Shift Kit, because you get the White Industries heavy duty freewheel bearing system, which is worth every cent of the extra price. I will make a start to finish Sick Bike Parts shift kit installation when the engine in my bike needs to be replaced. Typically i get 10,000 kilometers (6,000 miles) out of a bottom end, and at the moment the engine is around half way through it's life span, so it will be a while before i need to pull the engine out of the bike.
Ok well i am subscribed to your RU-vid channel so ill definitely be on the lookout for it ...the motorized bicycle world needs more people like you who know what they are doin and are willing and able to share theyre knowledge. ...everything ive learned cAme from these videos so thanks again
I am always creating videos on bicycle componentry or the Sick Bike Parts shift kit, so that it may be of assistance to others in assembling their shift kit and installing it on their bike.
Hello Fabian, can you tell me what type of bottom bracket are you using? i am building one but there is no space for the triple chainrings or dual range sprocket. Im using a 153mm bottom bracket. Can you help me?
PALAKAS Bambú I am using the standard 131.5mm cartridge bearing system, which is a direct retrofit for the cup and cone system: www.sickbikeparts.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=23&products_id=102 You can get this item in two extra long lengths - 153mm: www.sickbikeparts.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=23&products_id=107 and 170mm: www.sickbikeparts.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=23&products_id=214

Hello Fabian, thanks for the answer. I am using the 153mm BB, how do you do to make space for the triple chainrings? what distance between sprockets do you have?
PALAKAS Bambú Let me double check the length of the bottom bracket axle, because from memory i changed it, when i was experimenting with the triple and quadruple chain ring setup. Maybe i do indeed have the 153mm axle length. One thing i am sure of, i do not have the 170mm axle length. From what i can recall, the axle length on the right hand side does not change with increased axle length, but the left hand side does, to clear a pull-start mechanism.
