There are two different cans you have seen injecting one thing or another into your pocket bike carb area. One is the popular boost bottle and then there is the Nos. The difference is the fuel/air mixture in the boost bottle comes from your bike itself and the Nos comes from an injected flammable chemical into your carb. Nos will provide you a better boost.

The Nos system described here is not actually a “Nos” system but will serve a similar purpose and is home made. It is simple to build and easy to install.

Parts list

1. Solenoid from automatic sprinkler controller.

2. Spray can with flammable substance (starter fuel).

3. Zip ties

4. Spray can cap

5. 5ft of red electrical wire, 5ft of another color

6. Two screws

7. Super glue

8. Flexible tube 4 ft

9. Momentary switch

10. Crimp-able connectors or soldering iron

From the list above things like the tube will change setup based on where you put the spray canister.

Once you have assembled the system like shown in the picture (see link below) you will need to attach the solenoid to your battery and switch through a series circuit. There is no +/- on the solenoid just connect to any terminal. This is very easy to do and gives you the flex-ability to use different flammable sprays. One side of the tube attaches to the little indent in the stray button on the bottle and the other end goes into your carb, you can better your performance by adding a spray jet to the carb side of the tube. See the link below for the diagram.

After three years of referring pit bike sales to OutlawPowersports.com they claim that they never had an affiliate program. After three years!
Here is their response:
“we do not nor have we ever had any type of affiliate program….We really have no idea how you were able to add yourself as an affiliate.”

Well it was available for anyone over the last three years. I wonder how much money they made off of other people’s referrals. I can just imagine how their orders are handled. Yikes!

Wales welcomed the team with almost perfect conditions for Rd3 of the Minibike Masters Championship. As we crossed the Severn Bridge the sun was out whilst on route to the CMX Centre in Cardiff. Team rider Johnny Groves was already at the facility putting the finishing touches to the track which looked to favour the larger capacity bikes with it’s long, fast, wide, rutted motocross style – a total contrast to the smooth technical BMX style tracks we are used to riding.

As the weather took a turn for the worst late Saturday evening, we all new that Sundays conditions were going to be a little different to the bright sunshine we experienced on our drive down. As suspected the weather during the night has wet and windy although the track was perfect for the first group of morning races. In the 88cc Pro Class we had some close racing and again Mat Allen, on board his BBR race bike, proved consistant riding is the key with another trophy to add to his collection and a 3rd overall. Johnny Groves had yet another bike problem after his throttle stuck open in race 1 launching him 30ft+ off the top of a jump! Johnny was extremely lucky to get away with no major injury although the bike unfortunately was beyond repair for the remainder of Rd3. Guest motox-collect.com rider Lee Hill showed his talent and despite the wet/muddy conditions rode three excellent races to get 1st overall. So a 1st and 3rd place for the team with both guys running TBparts 88cc Race Head Kits.

Debbie Phelps, in the KLX Super Stock Class, has been training hard since the last round and this showed in her riding. Debs looked far more comfortable on the bike although it did seem that the heavens opened prior to each race making the conditions extremely difficult. At times it looked more like an endurance race! Debs yet again put a few lads to shame with a 10th overall on the day and is really looking forward to the sand at the Doncaster Moto Park for Rd4. Despite being battered and bruised after his crash in the 88cc Pro Class Johnny Groves proved why he’s the reigning No.1 in the KLX Super Stock Class. Plagued with yet more bike issues after his KLX110 lost all rebound in his rear shock Johnny still managed to ride 110% and get 1st overall on the day.

Gary Phelps in the Mid Size Clubman Class also had a good weekends racing. His TBparts/BBR bike was running well and he was making some very good starts and riding with the leading pack finishing 4th.

So, a much better weekend for the team with 3 podium wins. Lets hope we can keep up momentum for Rd4
at DMP in Doncaster.

Current Series Standings
88cc Pro Class: Mat Allen (1st), Johnny Groves (4th), Lee Hill (7th)
KLX Super Stock Class: Johnny Groves (6th), Debbie Phelps (11th)

The reputation of being dangerous and loud is now countered by the electric engine.

On the other hand, the electric engine is a smooth quiet ride that stores as much as 700 watts of power in an electric motor. It provides a big image boost for the pocket bike industry since the quiet and environment friendly engine is inviting to the more noise conscious crowd.

There is still a lot of excitement and thrill in riding pocket bikes that remained intact in the development of the electric version. And because of the safety improvement, the pocket bike industry can expect to see more young customers with permission from their parents.

It is easy to see why electric pocket bikes are increasingly popular. The racers can start their practicing young and can upgrade to power pocket rockets as they get older and more experienced.
