so we have been riding the past 4 days with the kids, problem was 2 of our blastys were down and it was getting old letting everyone take turns riding. so batt and i looked at the nephews blasty (which was blown up lol) and tried to think of a way to get it going without the new piston kit and bore job thats got to be ordered .......heres what we did
we had an old 240 cylinder that was 0.50 over sitting on the shelf that could use a new bore, the piston was fine but the rings where shot. well i just happened to have my stock piston kit from my vitos 240 kit collecting dust, so we put stock rings on a .050 over piston, thru on all the gaskets bolted her in and was amazed at the amount of psi that this thing had lmao!!!.....this just might work lol....so after i rejetted the stock carb..340 main and 37.5 pilot (its all we had there)...we slapped it together and fired it up.....she started on the first kick.....smooth and idled perfect!!! lol, then it was time to see how it ran.........well it ran like dogshit, spitting sputtering, no power at all...so i look down while its idleling and BAM i see the prob....the airboot had come off of the carb......(this reminded me of blasterdude27"s problem with the velocity tube).....so i put the boot back on clamped it nice and tight.......and to both our suprise, this blasty runs like a maniac lol.....the kids rode it all day with zero issues lol.....now before yall start saying how bad this could be we are well aware of the potential consequenses and the grenade thats ready to go off in that bike.....no biggy lol.. hey the kids all got to ride at the same time instead of one always waiting....ill also get some vids today of this blasty tearing it up....it just amazes me that it worked lol
