Engine bolt broken Vader 125 - Page 2

The bolt on the sprocket seems to have fixed the chain issue. It's still as tight as it was when I put the bolt in the sprocket. Also tried a 90 jet in the stock carb and it bogged down at top end of each gear. Went with a 94 and its running better. Could probably get away with a 97, but I don't feel like taking the carb off anymore..

Also, my back tire has a screw in it...so, yeah.

Always use Loctite on motorcycle fasteners; it helps a lot.

So I did try 98, 96, and 92 jets out of boredom. Had to go back to the 94. Running better altogether with it. It's weird how an 87 and 94 work but a 90, 92, 96 and 98 don't.
