    Centrifugal to manual clutch conversion?

    How hard would it be to convert a standard centrifugal clutch to a manual clutch? I'd love to have one without having to fork out the $150+ for a 3d. Im not running anywhere near enough power to need something like that. I kind of understand the concept, just wandering if it can be done cheaply...

    Silence a Predator 420???

    I've seen those little baffles that hotroders use for zoomie pipes on show cars. Very easy to stick in the pipe, and remove later. Not sure if you could find one that fits your pipe though

    Should I?

    I say go for it. My first was a mini. Baja heat I've driven karts but none are as fun as bikes. As far as speed though, the 25ish a stock preddy will give ya is plenty. It feels way faster on 2 wheels. Something to consider is that it's not always the gearing/ power required to go 50 that is...

    GX390 carb on 212 preddy?

    Going for a larger carb for when I do some things to the preddy. Was told a gx390 carb had similar results to the 22mm minuki. And your fine lol. That's what I'm here for ---------- Post added at 12:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:23 PM ---------- Lol

    GX390 carb on 212 preddy?

    I was looking at cheap carb options for my preddy for when I cam it and saw amazon had a few very cheap gx390 carbs, ranging from $12 (may or may not be a clone, but is supposed to be an OEM replacement), to $40 (genuine honda). I'm aware of the need for an adapter plate and different throttle...

    PWK Carb?

    It isn't modified atm. Just looking at what carb to get with my other parts, as now I have a stock carb with a small jet. Was gonna get a flat top hemi piston, cam(BMjr), valve springs, con rod, and do some port work on my current head. Looks like they have a 30mm opton aswell

    PWK Carb?

    Have any of you guys tried the PWK 32mm on a predator 212? They seem to be much cheaper than a minuki. Cant seem to find an adapter, if one is needed. ---------- Post added at 10:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 AM ---------- Correction: PWK clone

    Help for a newb?

    Once again thanks guys. I'm new to this forum and this engine stuff in general so it's nice to have a place that will put up with beginner's crap. Lol ---------- Post added at 06:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:02 PM ---------- So while I'm here, how do I find TDC? Just rotate the...

    Which Engine Should I Buy?

    Buy a 212 preddy and go to town. Cheap, reliable, decent stock power.

    Engine pops and crackles

    Pops and crackles out of the pipe? If it doesn't have baffles than that's normal. Unburned gas. Doubt adjusting the idler would have changed anything either.

    Help for a newb?

    How thin of a gasket would you recommend for a stock piston? And what size con rod would you recommend? Would it be the same size for a hemi flat top? Thanks

    Help for a newb?

    I've got a non hemi 212 preddy (filter, jet, header), and I'm gonna get a billet con rod to pair with the cam/ springs I'm gonna order. What is stock length for a non hemi? Do I need anything else for the cam swap? (Don't say flywheel, lol)

    First 212 predator build

    Hey guys. I have a 212 predator, non hemi, that I've recently put some basic stage 1 stuff on (Intake Filter, Jet, Exhaust), and i want to build it even further. Pretty much a performance build for a yard bike. Does anyone have a 212 build I can take some inspiration from? Or does anyone have...
