New build- some guidance needed 1996 to 2003

I need a complete seat..Not sure if they are all compatible but the frame I purchased to swap it he motor I have into is a 2003. It didn’t come with a seat.

im also going to need a carb. I’m thinking of getting the Vito’s 28 but it’s completely out of stock.



Any other recommendations ?


the frame I purchased came with a box full of goodies

current parts:

-2003 frame

-stock 1996 motor ($0 from the rusty old frame)

-DWT + ITP Holeshot Combo

DWT A5 9" rear and 10" front rolled lip aluminum wheels + Holeshot Master Tires

-Amazon purchased reed


-toomey b1 pipes(part of the new package)

- banshee axle



Advice needed:

- I would like a +4 swingarm - want to make it more stable and make it fit my adult frame + I like the stance

- should I replace the reeds with something better?

-carb + jetting will probably be a must, just not sure what to go with? I have a $30 amazon carb I purchased when I first got the 96 but I don’t want to go cheap

If you can send the carb back. They don’t use standard size jets and the numbers don’t cross reference, therefore nobody can tell you what size you need.

Not sure of the quality of the Vito’s carb. Check with Carb Parts Warehouse, Jets R Us, or Sudco for a genuine Mikuni or Kehine carb.


Carbs off a 80/85cc motocross bike is another option but you have to change several things to tune them correctly

Do you have a link to the reeds? They might be OK

I haven’t purchased the reeds yet, so I’m open to options

as far as the carb, can you help link me to the correct one? Will I have to drill for the idle screw etc?

I’m definitely removing Tors

thanks for the help
