I got the scooter for a good price, and taotao was one of the top selling scooters. Like I said 1st scooter. I've never even driven any kind of motorized bike before last year and I'm 62 yrs old. Thats why they say live and learn. This is my screw around scooter. Next time I will get a better quality machine and a 150cc, but my foot barely touches the ground because of my height. That's the main reason I want to build a 50cc. What brand BBK is the best affordable quality for this taotao 50 or any scoot I know Naraku is one but way too expensive for my first project scooter. I was going to buy impusa? They have a egr friendly BBK.

I'm sure someone else will chime in here and I may be mistaken but I think quite a few companies use the same frame for 50 and 150 cc scoots so the size is really the same

I found out they charged me $400 to put a 50mm piston in and no matching head because I never rode or knew anything scooters.And then had the balls to charge me $ 100 to re- jet my carb the fucking scumbags thats x t ream toyz in Dracut, MA.for the future unsuspecting!! I'm going to rebuild it myself with a full kit and use it a while and get a 150cc moped. At least I won't feel bad selling a scooter thats going to blow up.I'm just looking for a good quality kit to use in it.If you know some excellent brands to purchase buy all means let me know.I don't want any overpriced products under my balls when I'm riding. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience. I truly do appreciate it.Maybe at some point I can help a new- b like myself not get ripped off. One of the reasons I brought up the matching cylinder head is the Combustion Chamber diameter should always be the same as the Bore Size to at least maintain Stock compression ratio According to some sources (wiki) the 50 is stock compression ratio of 10.5-1 so going up at least 11mm in bore size with the stock combustion chamber you can see that you really bummed up those numbers, we don't have any volume numbers to know how much, but especially with the Stock cam it is a Tune Down..

You can get these shock brackets shown on my Scoot, they will lower the rear a 1-1/2 -2" something like that.

Those look Beautiful. What company makes a high quality 100cc bbk kit for my 50cc gy6 139qmb 4t at a reasonable price. I would like to get one made in Tiawan. I've read that they are of the highest quality. In any event one that will take a likin and keep on tickin.

if you want a full 100cc your going to need a stroked crank otherwise what is called a 100 will only give you 80cc
at that point you may as well get a new 150 motor as it will cost less and have the bigger ball bearings you'll need to have for a reliable motor
so ..... don't play with a bbc and stroke your crank or you'll bust your little balls 😂

How did your know I have little balls lol. I'm gonna get a 150 after I blow up my little balls. But is there a break in period after I install the BBK. I like the 50cc frame because I'm short and have little balls. That was great I'm very amused by your comment. I just need to know if I have a break in milage period.

Very little break in on the Top end The rings will seat in in under thirty minutes, even some of the worst product Ive had my hands on has a pretty darn nice finish on both the bore and piston and decent Stainless rings. Remember these are running in a bath of oil so there extremely forgiving. So ya don't nee to go all crazy with some concoction of assembly lube and baby it all you will do is put a percentage of glaze on the bore that will lead to less than optimal cylinder seal. So put it together and run it!! Good luck!
