So, quite the long shopping list I have here. After reading all that's been said by wassonii and all you other guys, I've decided to include the intake manifold and 19mm carb as part of it. My only real concern, with all this, is that it's going to be too much to handle for a newbie. Setting up a carb from scratch with a new exhaust seems like quite the endeavor, so that'll be first. I have to have correct needle and jets, and so many little pieces and parts to make sure are correct... for someone who really hasn't personally done a ton of mechanical work, it seems like a lot. Also I've read most mopeds need a new throttle assembly to properly operate an aftermarket carb... one more thing to get.
Anyway, I'm ordering a LONG list of parts tomorrow afternoon so they'll arrive in a couple of weeks (including intake manifold and spacer wassonii linked and seemingly a million other little items), then I'm taking a week off of work for a little vacation time at home 'cause I need it, but mainly so I have plenty of time to work on the scoot and install each part piecemeal. I'm not really concerned about the money I'll have to spend on this, but I am concerned about
actually getting it to run correctly, not killing it in the process, and getting all the parts I need in one or two orders. The carb is most disconcerting. How serious is it going to be if I start it up with the wrong needle, for example? Should I go ahead and order multiple needles, along with the jets? Also, like I said, money isn't really an issue for this (I saved so much buying slightly used that I'm waaaay under budget), so I'm considering the Leo Vince ZX-R rather than the Tecnigas Next R or LV TT. I've read the performance difference is worth it, but I'd rather ask the experts first.
SO MANY PARTS TO CONSIDER, SO LITTLE TIME!
