Hello to all....Picked up a free Metal Motorsports Rivet mini bike(just like a Doodlebug).It's not all that bad.I'm replacing the little engine with a 212 Predator.(got a coupon for 98.00)....I plan on keeping the rear 70 tooth sprocket and #35 chain.Just put on 2 new 15x6.00x6 tires.My question.......What would be a good clutch(sprocket count)for good low end that won't be doing wheelies every time I take off?I'm thinking 12 tooth...........any advice? And thanks for all the other good info I've already got from here!!!!

Unfortunately I don't have much experience with regular style clutches. I'd guess 12 is probably a good place to start. It won't be too hard on the clutch so the clutch should last a while.

If it wheelies when you take off, don't whack the throttle wide open. Just roll into it.

All of my stuff uses Torque converters and pulls the front off the ground easily. I like that tho. Keeps me on my toes and requires some finesse. Less boring that way.
