Help needed..2001 Cobra racer 50cc
« on: February 14, 2014, 01:41:01 AM »
Hello All,
Few things I need help on.
First would be the carb mounting plate that inserts into the carb, on one of the bolt holes broke, leaving only a half hole.
Second would be a 5 plug ignition with a key.
thirdly would be a starter.
If anyone has any of these parts, could you let me know. please?
I got this scooter on a trade with title.
I got it to run using the kick start and an old motorcycle ignition but its a 4 plug.
Can anyone help this newbie?

Thank you very much,
Tony

You could try any Kymco dealer.  Parts are available.  You can also use Honda AF18 Dio parts since the engines are identical.  The AF18 wasn't sold in the USA, but it was sold in the rest of the world including Canada. There's also lots of aftermarket speed parts that might do the job.

..Welcome to th' Forum, jkyle187!!


..parts from any kymco 2t will work on the carb..

..pretty much any 50cc kymco ignition switch will work...

..starter is same as any 2t kymco...the 4t starters will also work, but are a bit smaller..

..all with the exception of the ZX...

..stadiumyamaha.com has new oem parts for your cobra...



peace

Good news- glad you got it running.  The AF18-type engine in your scoot is likely the best supported 2 stroke in the world, so you shouldn't have any trouble from now on :-)
