Very nice, I like the paint job. As for advice I'm not familiar with mid bikes. GL with your recovery
Thank youVery nice, I like the paint job. As for advice I'm not familiar with mid bikes. GL with your recovery
thanks for replying also. i've seen your bike a lot and i got to say, it is a very clean bike. I was wondering though about your tires! did you use the original rims? can you add different size rims like 12"? just wondering.You have an X15 aka GS-57 AKA GS57 Interceptor
I have one...I fully modded and converted mine to streetlegal status...I used real D O T legal lighting n such on mine...............Good luck with yours..
Thanks....The rims are stock 10" but the tires are high perf scooter streetlegal tires,,,Pirelli SL26 90/90-10 in the front and Kenda K13 130/70-10 in the rear.........My bike has been raised up over 2" aswell so the pegs dont ever scrape the ground...Thank you. the paint job is still a work in progress because of the fairings, i don't know if i want to add them or keep them off. and thanks for leaving me a response.

Thanks and youre quite welcome..........:thumbsup:wow! off topic, but that street ride is cool. Right up my alley. Thanks Cam2 for the motivation
thanks for the advice. sorry for late reply been busy getting follow ups with the doctor. i was wondering also, what do you think about bike pegs on a x15I would go with a 22mm on a 110cc stock engine, might want to get a jet kit for your new carb. Look on eBay motors/motorcycles/super pocket bikes for a carb, CDI, and hp coil.
yeah the white was just primer because there was a huge crack on the fairing, so i fiberglassed it and bondo. but i'm trying out different tires. right now i'm looking for a rear though because i still have the stock tire on.Much better than white. I would stay in the 50 low profile wide tire. Like 140 or 150mm x 50mm x 10" or as wide as you can get. I put a 100 on my X18 front, taller and wider.
so i wouldn't need to do anything with the swing arm? because i'm probably going to get 130/70-10..I got a 130/70-10 Kenda K13 rear tire on my X15.....Fits pretty good..

welcome to the siteNew Here too. No pics yet but I have a Blade. I have prior experience working on the chinese 2 strokes so eager to assist with any questions.
Nice job getting the mod done and the carb dialed-in....Now you need to do the headbreather and hp sparkwire mods............Youll really feel a difference after thattoday i worked on the carburetor by removing the tab, 10 degree float and moving the c-clip, also cleaning it of course. results when i took it for a joy ride just up and down the street, i notice a difference. i'm not sure if others experienced a difference but i sure did. well since i've finish my custom paint on the body, i'm basically tuning for performance now and i'd like to get some advice.
oh just to let you know when i first got the bike stock i went 45+ on a straight road, i used my gps and my friend rode side by side with me and said i was going around 45-50mph.
tomorrow i'll do another top speed run and let you guys know how it goes with my stock carb mod and adjusted valve.
thanks cam2! as for the head breather and hp spark wire mods, are they diy or something i have to buy? Good thing i joined the forum because i probably wouldn't have known about the carburetor mod and get all this help. when i first rode the bike, it felt like it wanted to let out so much power but something kept it from going faster. doing the carburetor mod, made my bike smooth. but so far doing the time working on the bike is really going great.Nice job getting the mod done and the carb dialed-in....Now you need to do the headbreather and hp sparkwire mods............Youll really feel a difference after that
Oh I know the floatnowl restrictor tab removal mod works....Im the originator of the find and will never ever know about it unless you become a member here ...I found the problem back in 08 when an x22 I bought kept starving out after a minute riding wide open and when I released the throttle it died everytime til the bowl refilled it wouldnt restart either....Put it on my dyno I had in my basement and fiddled around with the carb and fuel flow from the tank many-many times til I realized where the anemic flow was originating from............
