That line just hangs there. It is a vent hose but I removed it because it got in the way of the choke. Glad everything went well for you. The bag of washers is for any bolt that you can fit them on so you dont have to use locktite on them. If you think it is too narrow you can get wheel spacers for the front. They make a huge difference in handling and the suspension will actually work better.

 

Hey just serviced my boys 110 baby falcon. My question is how much oil do I put in, the book says something like 760ml, but I was told to go by the sight glass. Problem is if I go by the sight glass, that only takes 250ml to fill the sight glass, this does not seem like enough oil. Can you help. Also I noticed when my son went in reverse the front wheels toe in real bad, I lifted the front end up to inspect and the wheels straightened back up. I think this may be bad front shock, has anybody else had trouble like this. One more thing then I will stop, I have read about some type of width extender for the front end, where can I order some.

Thanks

Go by the sight glass. It will take about 1/2 qt maybe a little less. You can get spacers from Raceway atv or even Ebay. They help alot. When the tires toe in bad did you check the air pressure? How much does he weigh? They do toe in a bit in reverse. At a stand still how bad is the toe looking at it from the front?

 

Wire on foot brake? I am assuming this is to force them to push on the foot brake to be able to crank it? Good idea, but I don't see any such wire, no switch for it to hook up to, and have always been able to start it from day one without pushing on the brake. Is mine missing an important safety device?

Thanks,

f6hawk,

The falcon 110 does not have any safety feature on the foot brake.

 

TT,

I went by the sight glass, and have taught my son to look at it before he starts it, making sure it is where it needs to be. Also, make sure you check it on a level surface, and wait a bit after shutting down (is why I have him do it before starting) as it can take a couple of minutes for the oil to drain back down.

Ours toes in also when in reverse. First time I saw it, I thought it was broken. Does it much worse on pavement than dirt, of course. I think that is just the way it works. I caution the kids to ride slowly and as little as possible on pavement, so it should not be an issue.

And on the width extenders, I saw a set on eBay, they were selling 8 pieces for a 2-wheel kit. Why on earth would you need 8 pieces for 2 wheels? If each one extends 2.5", for a total of 5" ext, why are there 8 pieces in the kit? And $60 seems a little high to me, but I could not find them at raceway to compare prices... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/5-Kaz...spagenameZWDVW

Enjoy the ride!

One more thing that may be helpful to all... what is the chain tightenting specs? I seem to recall from old motorcycle days that about .75" of freeplay is desirable, measuring from the slack position on the bottom of the chain, and pushing upwards. Remember, a new chain will stretch a lot in the beginning, but a tight chain can be worse than a loose one in terms of wear.

I ask because I noticed that the chain is rubbing on the bar just below it (bottom chain, not where the wear pad is), and I am sure it is not intended to.

Thanks again!

 

They sell the 8 pieces for four bolts per tire. The Kazuma only has 3 per tire. I have a set if you are interested. PM me . They were on out 110 but I dont have that one anymore.

 

the reson for eight is that they mount one on each lug nut that type is junk as for price the ones at raceway $120 kind of spendy but its a 3inch spacer

 

Regarding the number of lugs per tire, there must have been a change recently as my daughter's baby falcon 110 has four per wheel. We received it last friday, 1/6/06.
