What up scoot! I haven't used them, but I see alot of posts on scooter invasion referring to them. I have also seen too many to remember posts of people running nyc parts. For me the real test is actually holding the part in my own two mitts. If it looks like cheap $hit it is. Not saying NYC is, just in general...

So far I found nyc has a 110cc kit for the QMB engine. I'll keep looking to see if I can find anything worth posting. One thing, That is a HIGHLY modified engine. Stresses are going to be quite high. I wouldn't jump right into it w/out a lot of research. Perhaps the seller will hook you up with some of his sources, and reference material.

i should say 88cc head and with the 2% crank the larger . higher valves added to the cylinder must make that kind of cc,s.  Can,t wait to see it he runs his own busines and is coming out to look ot mine , maybe fix maybe trade, anyway i call everynight so they want forget me they say they havnt it will probably be the weekend though with the weather the way it is.  tha way i understand it all thi dude does is work on scooters. First for a big company then at home. So I,m willing to wait.  With that experience you,d think check for leaness I just hope he lets it brethe enough.  If not I will have to go with at at least a 105 main and a free flowing filter hypothetically speaking o,course? with a plug chop or two to adjust right/ by the way How exactly do you do a plug chop? thank...Scoot

Here's a description of how to SET your chops:  The color of the plug should be read at different rpm settings. You will need one for top end (full throttle) and one for mid range. Adjusting the idle mix screw will only alter the idle. It has nothing to do w/ other rpm ranges. Put in a new plug and run the scoot for about 1 minute at full throttle. Hit the kill switch, and close the throttle. That is the plug you want to see. The color should be tan to lite brown. If not post a pict and we can tell you which way to go with the MAIN jet. Repeat w/ the throttle at 1/2-3/4(with another new plug). To set the idle mix, adjust the smaller screw 1/4 turn at a time in either direction untill you get the highest rpm's. You can turn the larger screw to adjust the idle speed to suit. Once you get the best adjustment turn the smaller screw 1/4-1/3 turn counter clockwise, and your idle will slow some. bring your speed back up w/ the larger screw, and that will be your final setting. use either plug, and ride around as per normal for a few minutes/ miles, and you should have a nice brown plug

No troubles guys. I keep posting because there are so few places to get advice on ANYTHING that you can trust. I found the forum looking for help, and found the guys here to to top notch . I generally have a better time here than dealing w/ my own customers. Go figure...
