Pit Bike Modification Guide

Firstly these bikes have many restrictive components which mean that the pit bike can not perform at its best all the time. The most restrictive parts on these bikes are the carburettor and the manifold. A carb can be picked up for as little as £40-£50 which is a bargain for the potential power it could give you, and when you have purchased the carb it would be good to invest in a performance air filter, which allows more air to flow into the engine which equals more horsepower!
Next it would be an idea to change the exhaust to a performance exhaust, this combined with the carb and air filter will mean great power gains. Exhausts can be bought for around £50 off some websites but then again some of these exhausts retail at hundreds of pounds so be sure to shop around before making your purchase.
These two modifications will add low to mid range torque with a good benefit to the top end of the bike and a small increase in overall horsepower.
In a lot of pit bikes there is usually a restrictor in the CDI unit, these are often limited to around 8,500 rpm, if a performance CDI unit is purchased then this will be increased to 10,000 rpm meaning a smoother and more powerful acceleration curve and a higher peak meaning better top end as well.
Adjustments can be made to the gearing of the bike as well, in order for you to adjust this depending on the style of track you will be riding on. If you want to make adjustments to the gearing of the bike the best thing to do will be to change the sprockets. Standard sprockets are usually 14 tooth on the front, with a 37-40 tooth sprockets on the back.
Changing the front sprocket with a larger one will result in better top end, and a smaller rear sprocket will have the same effect, however acceleration will be lost when top end is gained and vice versa.

Pocket Bike Performance Makes Me Go Fast!

Alright so you bought you pocket bike unpacked the box did the assembly thing and its time to ride. What the? Is there something wrong with this thing? May be the engine needs to be worked in. The same reaction I had when I got my first pocket bike. It's almost like "buyer be ware", B.S. but its not. Because yes your bike can go fast as it says in the specifications normally 47+ mph for 2 stroke and 4 stroke 49cc and 110cc bikes.
So what is the problem? Why won't the bike go faster then 15 to 20 mph?
Well you have this thing called manufactures warranty to protect their ass the manufacture tested the bike at 47 + mph but sold it modified to go slower. Because 47+ mph with you on it who might weight anywhere from 100lb to 250lbs and how you ride will effect the overall live of the motorcycle they just want to make that 1 year warranty last one year.
So how do you make it go faster?
There are a few modifications you will have to make so get ready to shell out some cash.
1.Your bike can always breath better get a filter kit. Mine cost $20 it was from an online company I found.
2.Change the gear ratio check out the link below for how to articles. It's pretty easy I'm just to lazy to type it all out. It will run about $24. 3.Remove the governor if you got one. 4.Throw on a boost systems. You could get one for about $40 its tricky read about it first before making the purchase. It is only good for 49cc and up. 5.Upgrade to a high performance exhaust. $ expensive 6.Upgrade your carb to high performance runs about $50 - $60.
A pocket bike is pretty much like a real motor cycle shrunk you can do just about any modification to it you want given you have something like an X7 or so. Above are just some of the modifications ones that fall into reasonable price range.

Motorcycle Stunt Modifications

As motorcycle stunts and tricks have become a popular part of motorcycle culture, some riders have taken to modifying their vehicles to improve their capabilities. These additional parts do not necessarily change the everyday operation of the bike, but can be warning signs of amateur stunt riders. However, if these parts are not installed correctly, they could prove dangerous to everyone on the road.
Among the most popular tricks that many riders may try are the wheelie, the stoppie, and the burnout. These three tricks can then branch out from the basic maneuvers into more extreme, often more dangerous variants done for even greater showmanship and difficulty.
For an example of how motorcycle part modifications evolve, consider a peculiar variant of the wheelie known as the 12 O'Clock, which features the rider propping the bike at an extremely sharp angle. For additional tricks on handle bars, extending the length of a 12 O'Clock is necessary. This in turn leads to increased stunt modifications known as 12 O'Clock bars or, more simply, 12 bars.
In addition to trick mechanisms, certain modifications can be added to the body of a motorcycle in order to improve the resilience of the bike. As certain tricks put a great deal of stress on to the integrity of the motorcycle itself, these additions can be almost necessary to keep a bike from requiring constant repairs.
To avoid generalization, it would be unfair to state that every bike with a major modification is made for illegal tricks. Some of these bikes may double as a means for basic transportation as well as providing riders with the hobby of stunt riding. However, if a biker does decide to attempt a trick on a public road, they are endangering nearby pedestrians and other motorists.

The Best Bang For Your Buck Pocket Bike Mods

I always see a lot of questions similar in nature to "Will this setup work with my bike?", "What parts should I buy?", "How much will this increase my power?" from newbies entering the sport, so I have decided to make a list of what pocket bike performance parts are best for your bike.
This list is for people on a low budget and also applies to those that have a bit of money to spend as well. It will be set out in the format "Budget Mods", "Average Mods" and "Serious Tuner". Be advised that all CAG engines are different and performance increases vary on each bike. This guide should help you spend your money more wisely on the right modifications to get your bike going at it's full potential with the money you have to spend.
The pocket bike modifications listed are all available in Australia, but may need some looking around for. The prices listed next to each part is the general recommended retail price, please do not use this as a buying guide as prices will vary from different suppliers. Make sure to shop around for better prices, and also check with the supplier that these parts will fit your style of pocket bike.
Budget Mods:
Timing Key - Increases your engines timing by 10 degrees, cheap and VERY effective part, But please note this increases performance on some engines, but can also decrease performance in others, it depends what your timing is set at in the factory. (RRP $20)
Fibreglass Reeds - Replace your stock metal reed with a high performance Fibreglass one. Fibreglass reeds allow more and faster fuel into the carb, this resulting in a faster burning of fuel, which increases low, mid and top end power. (RRP $20-$30)
Performance Air Filter and V Stack - If your bike came with a black air cleaner instead of an air filter, its losing potential power, by adding a high performance air filter and vstack your allowing more and faster air into your engine, which will increase performance and engine life. (RRP $30-$40)
Hi Flow Fuel Filter - This is not a performance mod but it is one of the most important things that should be considered when buying modifications, If your fuel line does not have a fuel filter, there is a very good chance that dirt or foreign objects have got inside your fuel and are now blocking your carb. By installing this cheap modification it protects your engine from harm by dirt, plastic, etc. It is a must for every bike . (RRP $7-$15)
HP Clutch Springs - All CAGS come with 3 shoe clutches, the major let down with these clucthes are the springs. A good set of HP clutch springs will make your acceleration a lot better over stock and coming out of coners etc, you will have a lot more power. A good cheap investment. (RRP $15-$25)
These mods are a very good starting point to modifying, these parts can be fitted if you have general engine knoweldge or instructions. The flywheel, clutch and carb must all be removed to install these mods, if in doubt you can take your bike to a pocket bike repair shop and they would gladly install them for a cheap fee.
Average Mods:
Fatboy Exhaust and Tank - This exhaust system is an awesome upgrade over the stock exhaust, many winning pocket bike racers around the world use this exhaust and swear by it. It's a very cheap upgrade and will really open up your engine, the Fatboy Exhaust is that big, it comes with a smaller fuel tank so the pipe can fit. (RRP $90-$160)
High Performance Carb - The stock CAG carb is only 12.88mm by upgrading to a larger carb etc. 14/14 or WT-603 which are the most popular choices in carbs when it comes to racing you increase your engines performance all round by allowing more fuel and air to get burnt and this will increase your low, mid and top end power. (RRP $90-$160)
Heavy Duty 2 Shoe Clutch - A 2 shoe clutch is better for light people, once it gets going its awesome a lot better than a 3 shoe clutch with springs, the only down side to this modification is you must adjust the springs perfect for when the clutch engages. (RRP $40-$70)
High Performance Piston Rings - HP Piston Rings Offer more compression and are a good cheap investment, will give a small increase in power. (RRP $10-$20)
Lightened Piston - A lightened piston is a lot better than the stock piston and is a lot better quality, will give a small increase in power. (RRP $30-$50)
Ported Cylinder - Getting a cylinder ported to your engine is one of the most important mods that can be done, a cylinder with boost ports, larger exhaust ports and the correct squish set, will give an insane power increase, Very good for the money. (RRP $80-$90)
These mods are for the more experienced racer that can handle a lot more power over stock, these parts will be best installed by a shop rather than risk doing it your self. You will be amazed at the power increase.
Serious Tuner:
2 Peice High Compression Headkit - A headkit consists of a cylinder, piston, extra cooling plate, a high quality spark plug and some even with a changeable compression dome, This is where your engine gets insane power, by increasing it to a 49cc not a 40cc like most CAG's. A head kit tuned to the rest of the engine correctly is the best value for money product. (RRP $100-$400)
Full Circle Stroker Crank - A full circle stroker is best suited to an engine wit a headkit. Installing a full circle stroker crank (FCSC) will make your bike a 52cc but to get this going perfect the crank must be balanced to your piston. This is done by experienced pocket bike shops, once you install the FCSC you will never want to ride a bike with a half circle crank again. (RRP $110-$130)
4 Petal Reed Cage - Allows a lot more and faster fuel into your engine with 2 dual reed sections allowing for 4 reeds, this gives you improved fuel flow and power throughout low, mid and top end. You will not be dissapointed: (RRP $120-$200)
Zocchi CAG Race Pipe - Hand made italian race exhaust, cannot go wrong here will run absolutley awesome with a headkit and a good carb. Awesome power increase from low, mid and top end. (RRP $160-$200)
The real art to serious performance upgardes is getting your engine made to run perfect with the modifications. This is achieved with the correct porting and tuning. If the above modifications are ran with all of the average mods and a timing key, you will have an insaneley powerful machine. They will easily add 20 km/h to your top end with stock gearing. Also be advised while adding these mods a final gear change will be needed to get the most out of the modifications. If your engine is tuned and ported correctly you will be keeping up easily with stock watercooled pocket bikes, if not beating them. With all of these mods, they are not made just to be fitted onto your bike. The best thing you could do is to take it to your local pocket bike repair or performance shop and get them to fit everything correctly and tune the engine to the modifications, then it's just a matter of holding on :)

Penis extenders do not cost too much but some people still try to replicate it at home. Homemade penis extenders may work just like the original ones, but it does not ensure safety at all.

Homemade penis extenders do not ensure safety to the user. Homemade devices can never acquire the perfection of the professional ones. Anyone who tries to replicate the smoothly-finished surfaces of original penis extenders can never achieve it. People make their own penis extender because it does not cost much and so easy to make one. Articles and tips on making homemade penis extenders scatter everywhere, but it does not include what happens next when you start using it. They give too minimal information on the result of homemade penis extender usage. None of it can explain why a man laded in the hospital after attaching a rope with weights to his penis.
