Crazy,
Contact Bruce at EJ Cycles he is a member of this site, If he dosen't have any in stock he will point you in the right direction to find one...

What's your bike? If 15/46 is pinned at 45, 17/46 is gonna be pinned at 55. What cruising speed are you looking for out of your bike?

STcoldcrzy · 06-08-2007, 09:32 AM

no its not pinned at 45 it will hit about 55 pinned but even a 10mph increase will be a an improvement

my bike is a NST new star tech db-200 .... even tho i ordered a roketa db-07 from xxx they sent me this

Hey where abouts in NH are you? I am about 35 miles from the border crossing into Littleton. If you are close, we should plan to meet up once you get your "cruising" sprocket on. I have yet to see another China DS in VT.

I think we have the same bikes!! Remember I just ordered two new DB-07s and they sent the ones in my gallery with the instruction manuals showing DB-07B (RSM-200E) on the cover. What did your's say? I'll tell you what the MSO says when I get it. So far I'm very pleased with the overall ride and it should be perfect for the kind of riding she and I will do.

i am not that close to VT sadly i live on mass border bout 20 miles from hampton beach. Newton,NH

STcoldcrzy · 06-08-2007, 04:35 PM

i checked out your pics not the one i got.... mine production date 12/2005 and town registered it as a 2005 real bummer there and mso listed it as 2005 too what can ya do tho

darkiller888 · 06-10-2007, 08:35 PM

i have one on the way right now and a new gold chain for my roketa i ordered them today from www.scooterparts4less.com the chain was 31 dollars with shipping and the sprocket was 14 dollars with shipping.

STcoldcrzy · 06-10-2007, 09:10 PM

yea i looked into there ...but his site just says for bigger motors '''not what motor tho so fit is questionable still ...hopefully it is the right one tho ...i have played e-mail tag with him...he responded quick.... but first i asked if was fit the 200cc lifan/roketa/viva fml motors...he replied did not know... i sent him picture and size of it 17mm20mm center...he said he would check .. have not heard back ..but i am crossing my fingers he might have right ones...

STcoldcrzy · 06-11-2007, 07:12 AM

quick update he e-mail me back and verified it is the right one.
i have to give spooterpart4less credit... guy was much more helpful and quick to respond then most any other place i have dealt with

I think I have the same NST as you. Mine came with a 15F/46R combo. I found some tips in other postings and converted it to a 520 chain with a 14F/35R for road and got a 11F for trail (I got the parts at a local Honda dealer). It didn't take long to do the conversion and now cruises well at 55. It still seems to have good pep so I may go down to a 33 on the rear just to see what happens. I believe they are push rods engines from what I can tell but seem to be good bikes. The only problem I have had was the throttle sticking on a ride last Saturday night. Found a burr on the plunger that the needle rides on. If you feel any stickyness in your throttle you may want to check it before it locks up on a ride. It sounds like it has happened to a couple of other people from what I have gathered on this site. There are some good pics on how the carb is put together in the tech section.

STcoldcrzy · 06-12-2007, 09:23 AM

sounds like it ..it is a pushrod motor..... i was sorta mad the bike i ordered has the ohc ...but worst thing has been the all down shift pattern after riding for many years i am programed for normal pattern.. i am going to switch to the 520 soon i am sure i got the 17t to hold me over till i do it

red2003 · 06-12-2007, 10:08 AM

That looks like a pretty good supply of parts there. Nice to know the guy cares and responds to questions.

IronFist · 06-12-2007, 05:00 PM

I have checked at three different bike shops to order a 17 tooth/428/front sprocket. I have the list of bikes that match mine. No one can order anything bigger than a 15 tooth, which I have. My wife does not like sending credit card info over the net, so I won't do it. :evil: Getting a little frustrated :evil: I don't know what I'm doing wrong, it should be easy. I think they are trying to order a 520 size and saying 15 is as big as they come.

If anyone is doing a 520 conversion, and they don't need their 17tooth JTF259 front sprocket, PLEASE PM ME :( Name your price, and I'll pay postage too.
