Has anybody tried to change the front sprocket on the TMEC. I have a few customers thinking about doing that mod but I'm not sure what it will do.

Thanks for the carb and manual links mmprestine!
![]() If I fail plugging the tube with weld or a bolt I'll do the aluminum plate option. Thanks again! Jim

When I finally had the 56 tooth rear back on there with that bike, I had the stock 17 tooth front back on. If your customers are looking for a higher top speed, don't touch the front sprocket since it is a 17 tooth. Other than custom ordering a rear, for about $45 including shipping, one can order one from a place in England. They were the only place that would ship to the US. http://www.urbanbike.co.uk/jtr113454...ket-6129-p.asp (I would not even bother with this sprocket since the stock one is 56 tooth) I bought this one: http://www.urbanbike.co.uk/jtr113448...ket-1655-p.asp (you can even read my review on this one, LOL) You could order these via JT Sprockets US subsidiary, but the transaction is more complicated and costs more(I think it was going to cost something like $52). I have tried to convince Wade Liu to find a supplier in China that can make 46 tooth rears for these bikes, as even the 48 does not seem to allow the bike to go over 65 mph. If you mention it to him (don't tell him I said so) he might consider it more seriously coming from a dealer! If your customers are looking for wheelies and such and DON'T want a higher top speed, then disregard the above and slap on a 13 or 14 tooth front. I think the ones I got were off Amazon for the XR200 (don't quote me on which model Honda, but it was common, and the sprockets were cheap and relatively straightforward to put on--someone could steer you as to what model Honda the front emulates (the rear does NOT emulate any Honda!).

It was disintegrated for a couple inches, and the rest of the hose is fine, so I simply cut the hose down and reattached it to the tube. Out of curiosity, I fired the bike up, and it sounded like it did when new--very quiet, almost like a scooter! It died a couple times too, at idle, although I only ran it for about 45 seconds and was not ridden (it was not warmed up). Here I thought I have been helping the atmosphere with smog equipment, and nothing was farther from the truth! ![]() I will be looking for a plate and the removal of the smog equipment soon--I want the bike to run like my '09. I will see how it runs on Monday on my commute to work with the smog hose back on, to see how much of a difference it makes compared to it not properly attached. Once I get the plate and it is properly sealed, and the carb capped, I envision it will be like 'old times' again!

Culcune, if you remove the smog equipment, you might need to rejet. That is, unless you keep the catalytic converter in place. You could swap the carb and exhaust from the '09 to truly achieve the 'old times'.

What effect was happening if the tube that sticks out of the side of the engine was simply going into the air (bypassing the smog pump) since the rubber tube was disintegrated? The bike sounded and drove like my '09, and was kind of loud (I had bought a copper grommet for the exhaust to quiet it weeks ago, not realizing the rubber tube was disintegrated and the smog tube was simply emitting into the air--the body plastic hid all of this).
Once I cut the tube and reattached it, the bike sounded like a scooter. It seems restricted a little bit, too, but I kind of enjoy the quiet?! I might not remove it after all...

If you blocked it, you'd get the same quiet sound. Hot exhaust was escaping through the small tube, where oxygen is supposed to be introduced, hence the noise.
