      I would recommend the NGK B7HS, that is what I, and most people alway’s use.
      When you buy one, check the electrode gap and make sure it’s ~0,6mm and not 1.4mm which they sometimes have out of the box. :thumb

            More questions.
            How do install the exhaust?
            Do I have to swing the engine down?

            This part will not be “bent” under the frame piece?

              Nice to see that the brake part has finally arrived and your happy with it.

              For the exhaust you should first place the holder of the rear behind the frame piece and than put it on at the front, you should be able to do that with a little (how to say) practice.

                I have found these pictures online.
                Is this something that you will recomend me to do?
                Can you buy the needed parts somewhere?

                  I have both, the loose balls in the cup, and this bearing.
                  I don’t see a large difference both front wheels turn very long after a push when holding the front in the air.

                    Ok. Is it a straigth forward swap, or do I have to modify something?
                    And where did you bougth the tube that fit between the bearings?

                    Is this bearing ok to use?

                        Here is a video of the first start today :thumb
                        I think it runs a little too rich. It have a 72 main jet.

                            Yes!!!! I’m happy with that, but it makes sooooo much noise!! 😕
                            What can be done to “cure” the noise problem??
                            Change the exhaust, or change just the end can (damper)?

                              A littel to rich in the first piriod of a new cilinder is good, dont you think so?

                              Chance the demper. the proma cc demper is rubbich. so are a lot of exaust dempers. Im making one myself for my proma cc richt now.
                              The bigger the better.

                                Before you do anything else, please stop revving your vario setup with the wheel free from the ground. This is really dangerous, look at this:

                                And i like the way its running.

                                  You can’t really do that much to damp the Tecnigas CC because most of the sound is comming from the expension itself. You could try to get your hands on some kind of special cloth you can put arround the entire exhaust, that is probably one of the few options you have to make it less noisy.
