- Today, I try to fix a broken 50cc gy6 scooter. I dive into this non running scooter to find out if I have what it takes to bring it back to life.

I'VE MISSED YOU! Glad to see you're back! And holy hell trying to trick that thing out before flipping it would be a major battle of willpower. Diggin the new hq too.
The colder weather helps not wanting to do upgrades! Hopefully I can get the garage in order and clean lol. Believe it or not, it's way more messy now🤣
@@throttle_therapy LOL you know you're gonna wind up doing upgrades. it's ok though, it's only natural. and i'm pretty sure wintertime is when most of the zuma upgrades are gonna be happening. i'll keep you updated lol
I bought a "glixal" high performance variator from Amazon for $20 after my belt broke. It made a huge difference.
Good to see you boys back!! 🎉
Feels good to be back!
comment for the taotao you need to cut the hole bigger for the carb attachment tube with the larger carb, ditch the flat carb, properly dial in the af and idle, adjust the c clip diaphragm needle on the top of the carb for better mid range. my tao tao without any mods but 5.5 rollers premium fuel and proper inflated tyres and that c clip needle adjustement pulls 70 kph on a flat, also valve lashing adjustement is essential it helped me big time and i hit 80 kph, i think my speedos off so i will do some gps runs to confirm.
the black taotao videos pls
i want to swap my gy6 bbk abd i still dont know what u should change in cluch and variator
Its been a while! How is everyone? What do you think of the Thunder?
You've inspired me good sir, I got broke down old moped not that long ago that I thought I'd never get working again but while searching CZcams for the answers on what to do, more the 80% of the time I found myself back at your channel and now it's almost running, you're an awesome teacher and I'm glad to see another video of yours in my feed once again, keep up the amazing work!
@@duckydaduck3757 Thank you! I hope you get it running. I'm glad these videos helped
you need sport air filter for a carb that size
first, great content keep it up😍
Appreciate it!
Perhaps you can have the subtitles as optional? I find it distracting
Thank you! Just testing the waters on using them. I know sometimes I get quiet when I have the camera facing away, so it helps a bit there. I appreciate the honesty!!
@@throttle_therapy Ah I thought it was for non English speakers or something 😄. Smaller font maybe. Nice job anyway… With the engine lugging perhaps the rollers are too heavy? Like it’s shifting to a higher gear ratio too soon.
@@Tom5555 I will maybe swap some rollers around and see! definitely a possibility!
Theat R gives you 25cc and you have two soo you have +50 cc and its tunder soo thats like 250cc bro you gonna flip it in no time
🤣🤣 shoot... I had no idea someone else does math like me!
@@throttle_therapy yeah man my dad was Albert Einstein so i am very good at it i can teach you if you want
@@dusanvujosevic8395 I would be honored!
Its probably stolen i knew a fat kid in high school who bought the exact same moped for $150 on facebook marketplace needed a new top end.
Tao tao’s are fun but can be extremely problematic. Definitely fix it, sell it & let it be someone else’s problem. I have a Yamaha riva razz from 1999 with almost 7000 miles on it runs perfectly every time with next to zero maintenance and I have A Tao with less then 600 miles on it and I can never get the damn thing to turn over and broke the kick trying to do so. Those Chinese scooters are built like shit and run like shit so definitely dump it and come to the world of Yamaha & Honda. It’ll be Better content & a few less headaches. 🤟
