I just bought an old Bavatus. That engine looks just like mine. The top speed is 25mph but I wish it was a bit faster. Could the top speed increase after a good cleaning?
I was trying to get it running. The original carb looked in bad shape. I bought the generic one from ebay, search for 'carb 49cc' and you should see a description that says 'carb 2-stroke 49cc pocket bike/scooter/atv ...' for $12.50! I fabricated an adapter to go from the flat 2 bolts on the carb to a hose and clamps to the stock ontake manifold. To my surprise, it worked great!

god i love 2 strokes.
wish all stupid lawnmower engines were 2 strokes. Loud but with right muffler would be fine.
All those lawn 2 strokes would make great gokarts.

The wire you're in your hand, where's it connected with?
And how do you start it?

The wire is actually the throttle cable. I started it with a drill and socket on the flywheel bolt.

Sounds great, may I ask what Carb, Intake and other mods you have done to it, and what this is going on?
