Technical Specifications Displacement Capacity: 70cc (Sport Class Baseline) Cylinder Bore Diameter: 47mm Wrist Pin Diameter: 10mm Cooling Configuration: Air-Cooled (AC) Only Material Composition: Heavy-Duty Cast Iron Cylinder \/ Aluminum Head Manufacturer Part Number: 4614340 (46 14340) Country of Origin: Italy (IT) Carburetor Tuning Note: Running a 70cc kit requires immediate fuel calibration. You MUST up-jet your factory carburetor main jet (typically an increase of 10–15% in size) or pair this kit with an upgraded carburetor layout to prevent running dangerously lean and causing immediate structural heat seizure. Pro Maintenance Tip: Always practice a proper heat-cycle break-in procedure during the first 150–200 miles. Mix a light 50:1 ratio of high-quality synthetic 2-stroke oil directly into your first full tank of gas to guarantee extra top-end lubrication while the new rings seat to the cast iron walls. NOTE: Please check your wrist pin size before ordering. This kit comes with a 10mm wrist pin piston. If your scooter has a 12mm wrist pin, you'll need to also order this piston . Replacement 10mm pistons are available here. Replacement rings are available here. Notice: This product is intended for off-road and racing use only. Not legal for use on pollution-controlled vehicles in California or on public roads. Check local laws before installing. Performance upgrades are not covered under warranty.
