2005 Peugeot Ludix Blaster review from United Kingdom
"Nippy, cheap and fun"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Nothing goes wrong with this, it just keeps on going.
Hard to start the odd time, but a little wd40 on the plug and you're away.
General comments?
Accelerates very fast, and it's reliable.
To answer the other questions, if it has a performance filter or exhaust fitted, you MUST up jet the carb 1; to stop it spluttering and 2; to stop the engine seizing, as petrol is used as a lubricant for the cylinder, so 5% upjet for just exhaust and 10-15% for both the exhaust and filter, and 10% for the filter.
I have a Leo Vince ZX exhaust and upjetted to 60 main jet (original was 55 as with all Ludix models) and it purrs really well.
As for slowing down when warm; mine does a little, but this is with the belt getting worn, so buy a new kevlar one. It still happens but no where near as much.
Any other questions, email me on adamcrawshaw222@hotmail.com
