If you've fitted a big bore engine conversion kit, then in this instance I don't blame you, as that chassis looks far too big and capable and the USD forks too trick for 49cc worth of engine room.

74cc, only problem is how long it will last being cheap as chips. Porting is a top performance rip off so should be quick still!

Remember to use a BR9 or 10ES plug!
