Hey guys, I'm new to the pocket bike scene and have been browsing the forum for a month or so now but have never posted till now. I picked up a FS509 for dirt cheap and its in good condition but I'm not happy with the little 49cc 2-stroke. I have torn the bike down to the frame and am now considering doing a 110cc 4 stroke swap with a 3-speed semi-auto. I can buy the engine and trans for cheap but the only issue for me is that the chain is on the opposite side. I know that i wont be able to just flip the rear tire around due to the locking bearing on the hub. I have access to practically any tool or machine i would need to do this but i want to be prepared and have all the parts ready to kick it out in a day. Just wondering if there is a link to someone who has done it with pictures or if anyone has done it and can tell me how. Thanks!

Your dilemma with the rear wheel can be easily solved....Most have welded the freewheel hub but in a vid from a former member here whos now into scooters he built one with an88cc then stepped up to a 114cc engine on his cateye....Its just ridiculous the way its so uncontrollable...

theres other members who get the 99 dollar 6.5hp ohv clone engines and remove the governors,,,with about another 50 bux and a handmade headder pipe you can have an engine with double the power

well that's simple enough, thanks!

yeah, that bike seems to want to keep pulling the front end off the ground. an extended swing arm should probably help that out.

better front forks will make it alot safer too/////////

Removing the governors on the Honda Clones or 4 strokes without upgrading their flywheels to a billet race style = extreme danger. point blank
