Comments on: Installing a Malossi 70cc piston/sleve Kit on a Kinetic TFR http://www.kinetictfr.com/blog/?p=227 A moped blog about a moped Thu, 09 Sep 2010 16:35:39 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.4 by: Ryan http://www.kinetictfr.com/blog/?p=227#comment-58 Sat, 24 Feb 2007 04:20:14 +0000 http://www.kinetictfr.com/blog/?p=227#comment-58 Thanks for the info, john. I do know that the crank case on the kinetics is wide enough for a 43mm kit. I think that there are some Polini kits out there that are 43 and some that are 46. I also think that the aluminum sleves from Polini are 42mm. I think that there are a few 75cc kits from polini that are 46mm and would require boring. Please send some photos when you have them. I am curious to see what you did! Thanks for the info, john. I do know that the crank case on the kinetics is wide enough for a 43mm kit.

However, I recently was asked(by a customer) to install a polini 70cc kit on an 04 or 05 kinetic TFR. Everything seemed to match up except where the cylinder sleeve entered the crank case. Now it looks like I will need to have the crankcase oversized to accomodate this kit. I urge you to inform others who may try to undertake this task that at least with the polini kit, ports will need to be slightly oversized and matched as well as the bore of the crankcase where the sleeve enters it. Looking forward to posting the results. Thanks - John Courage - Mechanic - Urban Moto Shop, Austin, Texas. Your article seems informative and useful.
