Hey guys,
I have a 125cc thumpstar that i bought locally from Marshall Motorsports, ( one of the sites sponsors)
not very happy with it paid $750, it is absolute junk, not much torque pretty gutless,
but now i have a new problem,
when i get to half throttle it starts dropping power every second or so, i have to either ride full throtttle or hardly any at all,
i recently put 800ml of oil into the engine and it blows some smoke when started for possibly 10 seconds, other than that a little bit of smoke now and then,
I know my valves are probably off,
oil is leaking from front of engine, 1-2 drops here and there, chinese crap bike, so i tightened those bolts and i dont think it is leaking anymore..
ONE IMPORTANT THING :
on the top of the engine there is a thick black tube going just near the wheel off the engine, and oil drips out of it, whats the go with this? never noticed it dripping before,
has ruined my driveway ahah so not too happy.
also have a little hole in my exhaust, ( probably about 4mm circular) air comes out of it obviously when riding, should i leave this or get it soldered over? or any of you guys have a spare thumpstar exhaust you'd sell for cheap, ill buy it newcastle region.
thanks guys, much appreciated.
