Ok, so starting with the larger performance mini moto parts. The largest part you could get for your mini moto is probably a big bore kit. This will increase the displacement of your mini moto and give you great power gains throughout the rev range. It is becoming cheaper and cheaper to buy these kits for your mini moto and they certainly give the greatest power gains for the money so these kits are highly recommended. However some mechanical knowledge may be required in order to fit one of these kits, it is basically putting a new engine in!

Once you've got a big bore kit for your mini moto, you can start with some of the smaller mods in order to get the most out of your mini moto engine. I would now purchase a performance mini moto exhaust. These are great and if you get a good one you will see noticeable power increases, especially mid range and top end on your mini moto. In some cases these exhausts alone can add up to 10mph to your mini motos top speed and increase acceleration dramatically. Exhausts can be purchased for under £50 in many places on line, but if you are looking for a top quality exhaust system which is going to benefit you the most then it may be worth looking into some slightly more expensive exhaust systems.

I would now go on to modify the carburettor and air intake on your mini moto, I find these very restrictive on most mini motos and if this area of the mini moto is modified correctly you wont be able to believe the power gains and feel of your mini moto. Get yourself an upgraded performance carburettor. Performance big bore carburettors (usually around 57mm) will let your engine breathe and really let it perform how it wants to. If you combine this with a performance air filter, upgraded jets and tune it all up correctly the performance increases will be amazing. Your mini moto will feel like a new bike which will rev freely and be a lot quicker than the standard bike.

Now you have added the larger performance mini moto parts it is time to fine tune your mini moto and get the last dribbles of performance out of your engine.

After adding the above modification I would definitely now go on to improve the ignition system, firstly by replacing the spark plug with a high performance spark plug. I would recommend NGK spark plugs, and also by changing the changing the spark plug cap to an NGK one. This will help to stop your mini moto ignition system begin burnt out by the extra power increases. It would also be a good idea to change the lead and coil in order to cope with the power gains.

Also it may be an idea to get an uprated chain, one which will be able to cope with the power increases you have put the bike through. The reason I say this is because I have experience of the weaker chains found on most Chinese mini motos snapping on numerous occasions as they are just not tough enough to cope.

There are many performance mini moto parts which can be added to do with the clutch and gearing of the mini moto, this will ensure that power is always delivered efficiently when you need it. Try adding a rocket key to your mini moto, this is a very cheap modification but will make the bikes timing noticeably better, improving the speed at which the bike pulls away and its acceleration through the low range.

One problem with Chinese mini motos especially is the clutches on these bikes are not up to hard use. You will find clutches burning out very often and power gains being significantly less as the clutch can not cope. This is why I would highly recommend buying a heavy duty performance clutch. You will find the power is delivered faster and smoother than with a standard clutch and you will not need to replace it half as many times.

If you are racing your mini moto, or want to get better acceleration rather than top end or vice versa then you need to change the gearing of the mini moto. This is done by changing to different sized sprockets on the back and front. A larger sprocket on the back or front will decrease acceleration but increase top speed, whereas a smaller sprocket on the back or the front will increase acceleration but you will suffer top end. Depending on how you want the mini moto to ride will affect the sprockets which are used on the bike.

Now you have made these changes to your mini moto you will feel an enormous increase in power, speed and pleasure of riding. Remember though to always ride on private land and to wear safety equipment.

Keeping Your Bicycle Chain In Good Shape

Proper bicycle chain maintenance will allow you to keep your bike in tip-top condition for riding. Learning how to take care of your chain can save you time and energy.

A bicycle chain is known for failing at the worst time. This problem of a jumpy or jerky chain can be removed entirely, though, if you simply do some chain maintenance on it regularly. This means that you check your chain at least two times per month or after you ride it about 10 hours if you ride quite a bit. You also want to be sure to do a chain check if you have been riding in bad weather.

You should replace your chain if it is rusted, tight, worn out, or you have ridden more than 1000 miles on it. A new chain with 24 links should measure 12 inches and if it is too long even by 1/16 of an inch, then you want to replace it so that it does not damage the chain ring or sprocket. If you are replacing the chain rings or sprocket, then you need to go ahead and replace the chain so that you do not damage the new chain rings and sprocket.

The metal parts of the chain do not really stretch, but the chain does get longer because of the sleeves and pins wear and tear. Lubricating the chain regularly will help the chain to last longer. If you want to lubricate correctly, then you will want to put just a lubricant drop into each chain pin. This may take you a little time, but it will be well worth it when you increase the life of your chain.

Leave the lubricant on the chain for about 15 minutes and then wipe the excess off with a clean cloth. This will help to keep the chain from catching dirt and grime while riding. It will also keep your chain in tip-top condition.

If you need to clean your bicycle chain, then you can use a degreaser or dish soap. This is a great way to remove lubricant, grime, and grease to help your chain to work better. After you clean it, remember to lubricate it again. You should put the cleaner on the center of the cleaning cloth or sponge and then place it around the chain. By backpedaling, you should clean the chain sufficiently. Make sure that you rinse the rag each turn until you do not get any more dirt on it.

Leave the chain on the bicycle when you are cleaning it to keep it from becoming weaker. While you are getting the chain clean, then you can inspect it for any links that may be too tight. A tight chain can cause the chain to jump and jerk. If you find a link that is tight, then you can loosen it by flexing it between two points that are located at about give links away from the tight link. If you cannot loosen it, then you will have to replace the chain. Keeping your bike chain lubricated and clean will help it to last much longer and work much better.

If your chain seems to be making some noise and cleaning does not stop the noise, then you will have to replace it. If pedaling becomes difficult, then it will be time for a chain change as well. By paying attention to detail and maintenance, then you will have a bike chain that you can use for a long time.

on average, how lon will a chain and sprockets last on sportsbike?

average wise, and what about sprockets, will they both need replacing at time of chain replacement? does both rear and front sprockets wear at same rate?

Chain will go first, counter shaft sprocket will go second and last for wheel sprocket. Depending on how you ride, and the horsepower of your bike Id say about 8000 to 12000 for a chain, 2 chains for a set of sprockets. Of course you can run the sprockets until they look like saw teeth but expect the sprockets to fail sooner. Keeping proper tension is important at all times. Good luck.
