Default ran the boys LT 80 out of oil!

Well I blew it! This bike uses so little oil I forgot to check and see if there was any in the resivor. The piston and ring are shot! I have to have the cylinder looked at to see if it can be bored. While I have this thing apart I have stripprd the bike down to the frame for new paint and am working on cleaning up the plastics so it looks like new. Any suggestions on hopping this thing up a bit while I am at it? The boy is only 6 and has no fear so I dont want to go too wild and get him hurt. Lets hear what you guys think. We basically ride dunes only.

dont be to hard on yourself about the oil thing, the pump more that likely would have gone out on its on sooner or later[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] First thing do away with oil injection, as far as plastic put stickers on it my boys is so covered in stickers you cant even see the plastic, as far as the frame, before you paint it any were you see paint all ready chipping off i would suggest have those spots welded then paint it. As far as making it go fast motor and clutch mods will do the trick, talk to lt80(jack) for those.

My wife wants me to go ahead and put the 110 kit in it or send it to CT racing for mods, anyone do this? What are the reliability issues?
I dont plan on putting the oil injection system back on thats for sure.

One of the reasons I tossed the oil injection all together and premix my gas. I just knew sooner or later I'd forget about that oil tank... Now if I can keep my gas cans straight I'm home free....
