Hey everyone, there is a few points in the video I refer to this as 3D printed. That is incorrect. This is a polyurethane casting and I hope you can forgive me for the error! Have a great day! :)
The original intake "manifold" on these was in part a rubber hose, and you can substitute a chunk of 5/8" ID heavy fuel line. You have to understand what a tin whistle diameter size the carb on this bike was. I believe it was less than 14mm in the venturi quite possibly 12 mm, I never measured mine. The tube to the top of the carb/like most little Hondas was a tuned intake that improved the overall power/RPM. Considering this bike only did about 26 mph on level pavement, it was about 1.4 h.p. Removing the air-filter tube was a sure way to drop the top speed to about 19 mph. BTDT. So by keeping everything stock you end up preserving the original's performance what little it has. So just for comparison I have a 1957 J.C. Higgins bicycle which has a Chinese bicycle engine kit of 48 cc which is a 2 stroke but makes about 1.5 h.p. It's comparable in speed to the P50 but has more enthusiasm for climbing hills. Digs in with more torque and maintains about 20 mph on hills that would have bogged the Honda down to about 16 mph. Of course the fuel mileage is not as good as the Honda, and the drivetrains of these bike engines can be wretched.
i never see that moped and i use to believe i knew pretty much all of the mopeds ...actually i watch this vid thinking you will show the amazing honda pc 50 but this is amazing too ...clearly not as good as the indestructible pc50 ...i enjoy the vid anyways thanks ...very good vid im going to give you a trophy
LOL I wouldn’t say “indestructible” as there are many non-running PC50s on Facebook! Wish I had one tho! Thanks for the comment and have a great day! 🙏
For Gawds sake don't cut back the carb air intake tube from the aircleaner, it's an active part of making your bike have a wide RPM and torque spread. And that is the height the carb sits at. The cut out is for ease of access to adjusting the idle speed and mixture screw/jets.
@@Yoshi-Mooch My P50 carb sat at about the same height as your's does presently so yeah, if you can leave the tube that comes from the air-cleaner "box" as it is. The upper tube fits over the carb's mouth with about 1/2" to 5/8ths" overlap now? That's where the carb should sit.
Asking $4000 for that in my opinion is ridiculous and greedy that motorized bicycle with pedals is cute. I see it’s got a step through design. That’s nice. Look forward to seeing more videos of this thing. I don’t know what it’s top speed is though but for my purposes, I think it probably wouldn’t be fast enough

i put a nice comment in this vid but it desapear there something wrong in your chanel
I think the hole is meant to allow access to the carburetor adjustment screws.

So are you asking I should leave it how it is?

People do get crazy what they ask for the P50 and PC50 but they’re not even worth half that… maybe in untouched,
