Which parts do I need?

[Greggl4321]

Assuming I purchase a bike from Kronicracing,

Such as the boom Vader 2, what parts are typically replaced?

And what parts do I need to go over?

What parts need locktight?


If I have the bike delivered, is it something I can ride right out of the box? They say it's fully assembled and tested but does that mean I won't have to double check everything?


What size bolts do I need, as an example


And what's the deal about the rear axle needing to be replaced?




Or, in other words-- what'd typically gone over / done after getting a boom Vader 125cc generation 1 or 2?

I bumped into, and must have jinxed, a guy on a Vader here in Yuma. I recognized the bike, and told him all about this site, Kronik racing, etc. We exchange FB, and not the next day, he FB messages me about needing a new throttle cable because his snapped. His bike was a few weeks old, and he bought it somewhere else, but he did contact Kronik after I had told him about it and got a new one pronto. Not sure if that is a regular thing since I do not own a Vader, but if I was to purchase one, I would probably order an extra cable. I am fairly certain others will chime in about changing the engine bolts. I will let them clarify that.

If someone could get back to me as to what the general procedure for these clones is once you get them I'd appreciate it.

The motor mount bolts on the clones are known to break and the axle amd swingarm bolts bend/break.

These are what I used. The longer one goes in the top.

I used these for the rear axle and swingarm bolt - part number is 42301-K26-900. Part number for front axle and nut HND-1044

A VM22 clone carb kit and jets to go along with it. (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NW7CMVQ/)

May as well replace the fuel line (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002ZTGLFC/) with quality silicon tubing and fuel filter.

I should add, if you've ridden bikes before even just some dirtbikes or whatever, you'll find the stock motor is underpowered. There is lots of vibration and cruising at 50 can be ugly. You'll get bored and want more performance. You can cut through the chase and drop in a bigger motor kit right away add an exhaust, and be done with it. Until you realize the suspension needs some things... :)

What are all the parts again I need for the mikuni carburator upgrade?

Coming from sea level.

They're in the links above. Scroll up. You may need some different length bolts to mount the manifold on the motor.

Are parts hard/impossible to find

Say if something breaks?
