I thinking about putting Slime in my tubeless DF tires?
Opinions or experience?

Thanks for the info. Changing the topic a little but here goes. My background with Chinese clones is scooters, but some parts might also work with the DF. www.scrappydogscooters.com/ has a performance DC CDI that is designed for Honda clones that might work for the DF? I think they alter the timing curve and there is no rev limiter. They also carry a 30mm performance carb kit. I've used the carb on my 150cc trike and am impressed with it. It has the electric enricher instead of the manual choke. I understand that the B version has a 30mm carb already? The carb change would only be for reliability and ease of getting needles if needed. It would also let me remove the choke control and clean up the bars a little.

Roadkill,
All the DFs comes with a Deni PZ30 pumper carb with accelerator pump so I think it is a good item. No problem getting jets,etc. although the 2012 DF jetting seems to be fine.

If you want you can eliminate the choke cable and just use the lever on the carb.
I had to replace my stock air filter with a free-er flowing one to eliminate high rpm sputtering.

I think this was it.

I have a "racing" CDI which I have not tried yet but will report the results. A different advance curve might help.

Well then that saves me a bunch on the carb. No fuel pump so that leaves CDI, Coil and Plug. I always change out the fuel filter and hoses also. Thanks.

I use slime in my p/u trucks and it is spec'd for them.

ben2go,
Thanks. Sorry to hear about your car getting run into. I am enjoying your build on ADVrider.
Oh and coyote ugly.

Wow, I need to catch up... I haven't been able to ride in a while. I left off last year at message 3634, and the bike has been sitting. Now I need to bleed brakes to get back in the game.
