My pitbike

[suprf1y]

This is my 125 Giovanni.
I believe its a Loncin motor, with clutch, and 4 spd. gearbox. Picked it up from a 14yr old girl who bought it, rode it a bit, then lost interest.
Not bad for $400

It goes pretty good, at least good enough to be a little scary. I race motocross, and thought this would be good as a little runabout, and , well, a pitbike, but its way more fun than I thought.
I can see how people get addicted to these things.
It has a nice big pipe on it, but the carb looks like something off a 50, so I bought this one

I don't have it on yet, but it looks real good, and seems to be a killer deal.
It is exactly the same size as a XR100 carb, and way bigger than the stocker.

Great bike, my daughter has one identical except 14"&17" rubber...
I think it is a blast to ride,pretty zippy ,and my elbows don't even come close to my knees like some of the smaller pits. The seat could use some cushion though, but that is a small complaint about a $400 new bike.
Great idea with the carb. If it wasn't my daughters I would change carbys ,but she needs to be able to control what shes got.

Welcome to Chinariders. :wink:

hey did you get the carb on?? and how much of a difference did it add to the bike?
i got the same bike and am considering getting a new carb.

The carb made a big difference. My son says its got way more give'r :lol:

I see he still has them for sale, and the price is still quite good.

If you want to use this one, you'll want to get a 105-110 main jet from your local bike shop, swap it in before you install it, and adjust the idle air screw back to 1.5-2 turns out.
You will also need to trim the cooling fins a bit, so the float bowl doesn't hit. As well, I think I opened up the plastic pc between the carb, and intake. It was a very worthwhile mod, but the first thing you should do is replace the front sprocket (14T?) with one tooth bigger. This, with the carb made it like a completely different bike.
I have an inner rotor kit to go on, so I'll post a review of that, when its done. The pipe is good, so don't replace it, and don't bother with those hi-po CDI's.
What I think it really needs is a cam, as it runs out of breath way too early in the powerband. Stay tuned for that one. :lol:

This is the one I got ahold of, It's a jetmoto 125, I love just being able to toss it around.

I wish mine looked that good!

I have a ball on the little thing. When I first got it, I thought I'd probably never ride it because it's so small. I'm glad I bought it though, if you get it balanced just right you can wheelie it for a mile, it's still a little tough for me to jump, it wants to kick the rear end up. My son is moving up from a 50cc to a 110cc semi auto pit bike this fall. He can ride mine, but hasn't quite got the clutch down pat.
