pulse adrenaline 125cc project-plans

[devulge96]

hi there, new to the forum,

i'm looking to buy a pulse adrenaline 125cc bike towards september, it is going to be a project of mine and i want to get the maximum out of the bike.

i have researched some earlier forums, but they only talk about engine swaps (which i do plan, but i wish to do more)

i'm looking for a new 200cc engine that isn't expensive, aswel as a 250cc big bore kit for it.
i'm looking for new tyres as i have heard the ones currently on the bike are pretty poor
a new front sprocket (apparently 16t will be best)
new handlebars
new exhaust

budget of around £2500-3000 for the bike and upgrades.

thanks, luke.

If your going to spend 3k then why not just get a stock 250cc in the first place?

If you still want to go ahead with it you might be better off with a 250cc engine instead of a 200 with big bore kit; I'm not 100% on this but the mounting holes on the 169FMM engine looks the same as the ones on the K157FMI which is the stock engine on the pulse adrenaline and as a bonus the K157FMI sells for about £500 new so you could sell that and recover most of the costs for the 250cc engine. http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=7888501512

If you want a 17 tooth sprocket for the stock K157fmi engine I have a couple for sale here http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=280836052054

Hey thanks for your help, how much is that 250 engine in gbp? I only have my phone for internet at the minute, and theres no translation. Also, is there a restrictor on the bike?

The engine costs £178 plus £20 postage which sounds amazing but you still have to pay 10% to a taobao agent and the postage from china to uk is roughly £300 for a 30kg package, I am trying to find a cheaper way to have one delivered. Your bike is not restricted, do not be fooled by performance or de-restricted CDI units.

Edit: oh yeah you need a carberettor for the engine aswell which I belive are sold in the uk. There was a simular 250cc chinese engine on eBay for £300 a few weeks ago but the seller ran out of stock, it would be nice if some more came on ebay for the same price.

I'd be interested in the upgrade myself. The 125cc engine is fine for around city driving. I'm based in Ireland. If you can come up with a a cheaper way of getting them over to the UK/Ireland please let me know

The other option os putting in an NSR 125 2 stroke engine. It's about 25+ Bhp
