Thanks Sam!
Some times you just have to say some choice words, then you feel better and remove them because you know that the trolls live for those moments.
Ill have to say this for certain, its better to just ignore the moron and hope not too many people follow the advice of a guy whos only blown up every engine hes tried to build.
Hope the weather gets better in the states for some good riding weather and we all get out and enjoy our kymcos!

Seems my friends think you have to ninja kick them to start them so I need another kicker cover if anyone has one. Let me know how much etc. Thanks!

Up for sale is a tao tao cy50 t3, comes with title and 2 sets of keys. New stator and rear rim. Apparently it had a faulty stator and there was a recall on the rear rim from a factory flaw. Runs great and mileage may increase if I take it out for a few more spins. Currently it has 20 Km on it and still doing the break in which means no real throttling is being done. So no clue what top speed is.
750$ and its in St Louis Mo, I can deliver it for the amount of gas it takes to drive there and back.
I will get pictures up later on today or tomorrow. Its black tho. Heres a link to what it is and the online price which is 60$ cheaper than around here.

Heres a few pics to show the swap done easily, it is a drop in swap.
Malossi gear about to go onto the zx counter after pressing off old one.


This is what the case side looks like stock after trans final drive housing is removed.


Housing side with the C clip on the final drive out put shaft, Im sure thats not the technical term but back off it is what it is.


You take the case with the primary gear over to the press and press it out, you can use a torch for a little heat if you plan on replacing the oil seal.



Try not to let gears hit the floor ever, I have a bunch of soft stuff under it also including the bag.

Side by side kind of shot from on top.

Press Malossi back in with some grease after freezing for at least 30- 60 minutes, I do over night.


Press malossi big gear onto counter shaft after freezing the shaft for at least 30-60 minutes, I do over night when I can.


Put them back in the case to make sure they line up. For final installation I swapped location of the blue trans washer and the metal washer on the counter shaft, other wise it binds, but after swapping its always perfect. The blue will go towards the clam shell side and metal will go towards case side.

Dont forget to put the larger inner diameter washer under the final drive gear against the case so when you push the trans clam-shell closed it will be pushed against the gear and the bearing opposite of the C clip. the gear will ride against the C clip and the washer to gear combo.
Use this diagram from kymcopartsonline for reference if you get confused on location of anything.

I hope any of this helps in an easy swap and you dont get stuck like this guy did in front of my house. I think hes on the crack.

Id like to thank my neighbor for letting me use his press and his help with this.

Anyone use one yet? The one I see has a 12mm adapter and the zx has a 17mm nut.

I bought a 04 zx50 for the forks and front body panels, I'm parting out the rest. So anyone need anything but the triple tree, front body work or the floorboards let me know what you need and where to be shipped to. Also the engine runs awesome, it has an aluminium cylinder on it not sure by who and alot of aftermarket stuff too.  Frame has a title as well so I will sell the frame also if anyone needs it.
