  • would a 1.5l gas tank bolt right on?

  • @apu2169 Yep, and pretty easy to do.

  • @PMWgoped make a video on how to change the bearing in the engine, the one the spindle uses, spindle bearing? crank shaft bearing?

  • @FrenchValleyAirport A video will take me some time (up to a few months) before I can get around to making that video. Its not to hard but the trick is pulling the flywheel off so the cases can come apart. Watch the video I made on replacing the cyclinder and pistion because some of these steps are needed to get to the bottom half of the engine. Note: you do not need to remove the pistion or pistion rings.

  • @PMWgoped how often do they need to be changed? what are some signs? i dont think mine needs it, but i bought the goped used so i dont know...

  • @FrenchValleyAirport Not all that often, I would say depending on the care of the engine 200 to 400 hours of operation but I have seen many go much longer then that. When the main seals start going bad starting get hard or imposable, idle RPM starts fluctuating on its own leading many to believe the carburetor jetting is off, or the engine may end up seizing because the added air that leaks in through the seal is preventing the engine from getting the lubrication it needs.

  • @frenchvalleyairport I have the impression your engine is working fine so I would not worry to much about the engine seals unless of course you're experiencing something that may lead you to believe you need new main seals.

  • is this how you do it on a bigfoot too?

  • @enriqueg96 put your sport/ped on its centre stand. loosen quick release. set epw all way down . put about 75lbs of pressure on deck at rear fender. tire will touch spindle hard. ( wiht pressure) while applying that pressure, move EPW into position on tank bolt. then tighten quick release. youre good to go
