1) Remove the rubber snorkel on the airbox, this allows it to rev much better. 2) Raise the clip on the needle in the carburetor on notch. 3) Remove the exhaust silencer and cut off the restrictive cone piece on the end of it. 4) Redrill a new rear shock mounting hole 1" further back on the frame, this will raise the back of the bike up and improve handling. 5) Raise the fork oil height to 6.5" from the top of the tube. Make sure the forks are compressed and springs are removed when doing this. 6) Add a 1/2" preload spacer to the top of the fork spring. (PVC tubing works well). 7) Remove some of the steel balls in the centrifugal clutch to raise the engagement rpm. (Leave an open space in between each one and distribute them evenly). 8) Change the gearing (We are in the process of finding the right setup). |

The oldest 80 is a 1983 which is standard except for a tal pipe.The 2nd 80 is 1991 and the one we are going to mod/tune.The 50(1981 model) we can not part with it's one of the family we have had it that long.
