Im thinking its also the batteries. I will check everything tomorrow. I got a question about what type of engine to use. I know a 2 stroke would be better than a 4 stroke. But what size and brand? Thats kinda cheap
i got a tecumseh 2.7hp 2stroke that runs, let me know if you think it would fit and work with your set up, also have a clutch for it

nice looking scooter would this be a good engine?
that looks like the motor i got on one of mine, people tell me that its not a 47 or a 49 but its a 43cc . they told me it was mismarketed

supposedly you can tell by the way the fins go around the head, i cant see the head percectly clear but it looks like the fins on mine and my motor is the smaller 43cc that was sold as a 49cc

you can also explore using friction-drive parts as an easier route than mixing and matching wheels & sprockets & whatever. you can find ready-made clutches & rollers that'll bolt right on to these engines.

and just so you know:

nice looking scooter would this be a good engine?
that 47cc engine comes with a bowl carburetor and requires a gas-tank that's higher than the engine for gravity-feed. you can buy diaphragm conversion kits, but they will double/triple your final cost.

the other style, 22cc-49cc, uses a diaphragm carby, and you can place the tank anywhere. you can also get versions with an attached tank.

for reference only, not a recommendation, just a good look at your options:

PSA: it's my small-engine opinion that what you're looking to do can be accomplished with as little as 22cc, especially if you have an eye open for legal & social tolerance. be mindful that gas motorized bicycles have become illegal in WA because of abuse, you wouldn't wanna let that happen to scooters too.

no i would not want them to become illegal.

so a 22cc will be able to get me going close to 20-30mph?
