Hi Paul Thanks for your reply. I messed with engines for years but my knowledge of 2 strokes is limited. I got this ped for him with no head a barrel on it. I purchased a new kit and it seemed to be fine..... till now. I tested the compression with a gunstons screw in the plug hole, rubber tube and gauge on the end affair. I have just removed the head and barrel after your comments and found the new piston lower ring ais worn away with scoring on the barrel top and bottom faces which probably explains the low commpression. I think Its probably worth checking the oil pump.... what do you think? Thanks again for your help. Wayne.

Hi I've had a 96 850 for 7 years. My original exhaust collector box rusted off 1 week before my first BMF. I put the stainless motad system on it with the longer silencers and have had no trouble with it since. The down pipes will not stay shiney unless you are completely mad with the autosol. But you will need to keep the silencers clean other wise they will stain. (guess its not completely stainless eh) Hope that helps Wayne.

Hi I am currently playing around with my sons cs50 (02). It ran ok on its first outing for him on saturday evening (approx 6 miles) then stopped. IT wouldn't start by button but did with a kick. Since then its been cuting out alot and now will not start at all We have a good spark on the removed plug when you crank by button or kick start. I have strripped down the delorto carb and cleaned every thing, checked the jets etc and all seems well. The needle valve sits all the way down inside the carb and isnt bent and runs up and down ok with the twist grip. Do any of you clever chaps have any suggestions as what to look for to get it running again. (sensible ones please)! Thanks Wayne Add 1. I have just checked the compression, while cranking it knocks the guage up to 3 bar or 47 ish psi. I dont know what it should be though.
