Pulling Power

[Phil.Br]

Hi, I am new to mini moto's, and have a newbie question!

When i give them throttle standing beside the bike or on the stand, the revs are very high compared to when i actually ride them, they rev a lot lower.
Am i being stupid as they are only small and i shouldn't expect them to pull me as well or is there anything i could be getting wrong, like running them with too much oil? I have used a ratio of 25/1.

Any response would be of help, thanks

is it a real minimoto? or fake? 100ml off oil to 5litres of petrol..
clutch set at 7500rpm

I have 2 fakes i guess and one is a Midi DR?

Ok thanks, and is there any threads on how to set up the clutch?

try running it on a 50-1 ratio if its already been run in (a used bike) and try playing with the idol screw on the side of your carb, im quite a big guy myself and used to love riding the sons mini dirt bike and i found that it used to pull better if i had a little play with carb hope this helped

ok there if it is the clutch mate what I would do to my sons is where you have the springs remove them and replace with ether tighter springs or loser one coz this some times depends on the riders weight as it did with my son coz I replaced the woodruff key with an advanced one and trimed down the fly wheel to and changed the reed vales to but as I say I only seen a diffrance in the clutch with rides weight good luck
