Have people found an effective way of cleaning the interior of 2-stroke expansion chambers yet?
I used to use a caustic soda and water solution .. but probably should not have even bothered..

Fill it up, thrash it, put it away.

Repeat.

Frequently.

Is there more to biking smile

Eventually any 2-stroke will need de-coking and i know of no way to do it quickly and efficiently.

I'd love to own a bike like that. A mental 2 stroke with a decent frame & brakes. Cannot imagine how big my grin would be riding it. *Like a cheshire cat* springs to mind. biggrin

Only been out on it twice but it's been great fun.. sadly now the winter is here there won't be much more biking fun.
