Thanks again, Scott. Imagine a 244cc scoot that can actually run too cool.  |

That's a nice compact cooler, Scott. Where on the scoot did you mount it? Did it take care of all your cooling problems? Was it difficult to bleed the air out of it? |

Welcome to Scooter Professor, Scott. It seems that no one is noticing the posted miles on your old Tank CfMoto 244cc. 60,000 km is equal to over 37,280 miles and apparently the engine was still going OK even though the scoot was falling apart around it. Great miles on the M-250A-JCL too. Sounds like you're a real veteran of the 250's.

I did this on my 50cc scoot with favorable results. Haven't tried the 250cc yet. Doing this might result in slightly decreased fuel mileage. If you raise the needle too much, the scoot may stumble (too rich) on acceleration.

Welcome to U Scoot, fflintstone. You may be a well seasoned rookie, but I know wolfhound is more seasoned than you. I'm sure we all hope to be scootin at 75.

Hey Jalat. Thanks for that info on an easy and worthwhile tuning procedure. That is a big gain in low to midrange acceleration.

What kind of fuel filter did you install? Some filters have been known to collapse internally which can partially block the flow of gas.

The headlight adjusters use a 3 point connection to the headlight housing. Looking at JR's picture at the right headlight, you will see 3 Phillips heads screws with silver washers. These are the adjusters. The top right hand screw is the vertical adjuster and the bottom left hand screw is the horizontal adjuster. If the top screw is hard to get at or is frozen, you can use the two bottom screws adjusted equally to do a vertical adjustment.

Please don't take offense when I say this, Todd. It couldn't have happened to a better scootist. What I mean is that there are not many scoot owners out there who would pursue and fix these problems and even improve on them. It is unusual that you have a Linhai with gremlins, but I'm sure you will exorcise them out and we will all benefit from the results of your labors. You and your Dad have the patience to document your results for our benefit. We are all rootin' for ya. ;D
My 244cc has been to almost 85 mph (indicated) which is over an actual 75 mph on the flat with no wind. This latest improvement came after a careful realignment of the venturi tube which connects the carb to the air cleaner. I think I was able to get a good seal and along with the K&N replacement filter, it seems to pull high speeds nicely. Now I have to find some time for extended high speed runs to see how hot the scoot runs. Haven't gone over 1/4 guage so far this summer. New England has had some nice cooler weather.

That is a thing of beauty, Todd. I am anxiously waiting to see how it turns out.

JR, keep up the good work especially all the CfMoto info. ;D Summer colds can be bothersome especially if they get mixed in with allergies. Take care of yourself.
