Just picked it up. Got it for $125. Needs a foot peg replaced and previous owner said it leaked a little water. Said it needed a new seal but still rides. It fires right up. Think i got a decent deal? Now I have 3 different bikes lol.

Very nice bike.

 

[Sinnervision]

Thanks! Previous owner ran straight water in it. Is it better to use antifreeze?

 

[EPR]

Nice, what happened to the body?? Get the water problem fixed and you need anti freeze too.

 

[Sinnervision]

I asked if he had the rest of the body. Said he's never had it during the time he owned it. I'll get ahold of some at some point for it

The body looks nice, but it just gets in the way, and it's to get off and on. It has 2 times the power of a Cag. The Camel Honda avatar photo is my C1. That's an old photo, just put ultra soft racing slicks on it a month ago. You can get a set for $40 a SP4Less On Sale and $16 S/H.

Had a friend come by that was wanting to see the new one. So we fired up both bikes and had some fun. This mta4 is a LOT better than the cag by far. Thinkin of sellin off the cag, but may hold off a bit. Def keeping the mta4 tho for a long time lol. Glad i picked it up. I see some called b1's too. Which is it that I have?

 

[EPR]

There pretty much the same, the C1s go to Canada, the B1s go to England & Downunder. There are two size engines, 40 and 50cc, ( 39 and 46cc ), I have the 50, 39.5 bore the other is 37mm bore. My engine is in pieces almost ready to start assembly.

How do you tell the difference in the motors? From what I see on parts websites, I think I have the 39cc

Seeings the MT-A4 is a ripoff of the Blata Origami and the C1 Origami is mainly 39cc racebike theres a high probability the MT-A4 mimics the that bike........Only the Banshees and B1's were 50cc.........

You gotta measure the piston size

I like the 80 km/h, BS all the way, maybe 60 km/h with the wind at your back,lol. More like 5 or 6hp,lol.

Got a new body since my front plastics were gone when I bought it. Only had a few colors left in stock to choose from. But I like the yellow on it. In case ur wondering, I snapped the sprocket and waitin on the new one to get here. That's why the housing is off the motor.

 

[MathieuOuellette]

chain was on too tight?

 

[Sinnervision]

Yup you guessed it lol

 

[MathieuOuellette]

Yup you guessed it lol

thats a bummer. I get the chain tension to leave about 1/8th of an inch of up of down play in the chain. The drive isint sloppy and it doesent wear the gears down to much. Also lubricate it everytime I ride. Any plans to mod and race this bike?

 

[Sinnervision]

I might a little once summer gets here. I dont know anyone near me that has any bikes. theres no tracks to ride on either. Need to fix the slight water leak its got goin. It's not bad tho. One of the previous owners supposedly raced it a little, but don't think he did any mods. None that I can see.

When I got mine it was 6/72 gears, 12:1 way to low, except for a small track. I went to a Cag 68 tooth rear gear and 7 or 8 front pinion. I have 3 housings total. The 3rd one has an 05T/T8F 8mm 6 tooth pinion and putting a Cag 54 tooth 8mm rear sprocket on.
Mine is completely apart, sounds like you need to pop the cylinder up, water comes up thru the cases and into the lower cyld at the bottom and the base gasket is supposed to seal it. I used some silicon type sealer and put the cylinder back down. I might leave that gasket off when I put it back together and use Yamabond or something like that.
I have all SKF bearings and seals except for the water pump shaft, the red Viton seal. A real Blata rod bearing is to small OD the fit the C1 rod end. Goibg to take the parts to a bearing shop in town and see if they can match it.
