05 Motofino 49cc to 150cc
I am in the process of completing a 150cc swap... all I have left to do is make a seat and a tail light, and find a few more plastics.
I will slowly be updating this thread as my internet connection sucks... lol Here she is when me and my friend Scootin150 Picked her up http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...ps2573b8b2.jpg :hehe: |

Hi
Welcome aboard Pleased to make your acquaintance Looks like a great project, cant wait to see how it all turns out Take care and ride safely Yours Hank |
Thanks Hank! Welcome to my Thread :clap:
Scootnwinn I could not tell you what happen to the scooter before I got it. What I CAN tell you is that the original 50cc engine that was on it DID catch on fire a couple times when we tried to get it running. That is when I decided I was tired of messing with such a small underpowered pathetic engine! :tup: |
Well looks like you got a ways to go you better get to it if you are going to ride tomorrow... ;)

Here I am grinding the frame down after I welded the mounts for the 150cc in. I also had to rewire my harness because I kinda ruined it by letting it short out. But its all good now :yay:

Kinda Jumping around on this build thread...
I had the 150 running for while and it ran pretty good, til the exhaust fell off one day. So I had to take the head off to retap the holes for the exhaust studs, and when I did that I found out the headgasket had been leaking. So long story short, now I have a ported and milled head (.070" shaved) , Running no base gasket and also running a hand made manual chain tensioner. I had to basically make my own head pipe because I hhad ported the stock one and it broke on me. So now I am in the process of replacing the broken part with larger tubing :yay::clap::yay: http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...psadc42faa.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...psbddb4269.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...ps014053b0.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...ps241b1b5e.jpg |

I had to repaint the scoot because the plastics were broken into two pieces... when this particular year Motofino had a one piece front end. So I had to bond the nose back together to make it solid and do body work on it. Here are some Pics. I still need one more panel for the passanger side.

I forgot to mention...This scoot weighs 120lbs Minus Fuel. So I am hoping to get good gas mileage out of it especially with the torque I have with the high compression :nod:
