Guys I've got the gx parts diagram updated and will publish a parts listing as well tomorrow. Right now, I'm waiting on the starter box parts diagram and will publish them together. As with most distributors, we have been relying on the dealers to work with customers in regards to parts ordering. This is why we send out the gx partaking diagrams with all dealer and wholesaler price lists. Also, the starter boxes come with one in the box, but I've asked Taiwan for the soft copy several times. They said they'd get it to me tonight, but we shall see.

+1 on that.

If you are running the motor nice and rich for break-in, the front bearings can seep a lot. Especially when left over night after a few tanks.
If it´s not machine gunning at idle, or the idle is not raising up by itself for no apparent reason, then the front bearing is most likely ok and is not leaking air.

Red face exploded views

Well,
I have exploded views for the GX5R and GX7R on my website.
It's a weird path to get to them, but it was the only way I could get around the goofy software from the web host.
( I want to run my business , not be a webmaster ) sorry, frustrated with all the web time involved due to software designed by idiots. !!!!!!!!!!!!

Why is it no one likes the 3 port? I have one coming from racer22 that he modded. can hardly wait. should be in the 60's here this weekend. sent in my mg-66 to see if he can get some bottom out of it. He has a very ingenious idea on how to do it. moto thanks for the diagrams. Your web site is something I was going to do. just a place for people to go and get parts. no hassle. I'm still working on my design.

I don't know why the GX3R seems less popular. I stock it, but have received little interest in them. I guess the GX5R and GX7R "overshadow" it.

You'll like working with Rex, he is very customer oriented and racers attest to his engine mods.

Rex will take care of you. He knows how to work these motors over good. I bought one of his Go .25's and it screamed. It was a fun motor to mess around with.

I have a gen 5 powerhouse modded 3 port. For club races it is my go to motor. I love that thing. It is very Speed like.

That's interesting... we do stock them, but as moto said, very little interest in them. they work pretty well with the 0801 pipe, which is why I only order the 0801 combo for it. 2072 is very torquey, but not much top end. I still like the 5 port the most though.

I liked the 5 port also. but found it a bit much for my capabilities,in my buggy. It was a modded one. I like my mg-66,but lacks bottom end imo. I will see after rex gets done with it. I want to see how the new 5 port works for every one. cause you know I will be saving up for one. Any body have the coral colored 3 port head out there? preferably new. or can some one chime in with a price for a gxr 3 port head.

i think the GX7R would be perfect for you in the buggy, thats what i run and is super smooth and very controlable low end with plenty of getty up when needed

Same here... I ran a modded GX-5R in my buggy, then a stock GX-5R, Then a stock GX-5R w/ the long needle. Ended up settling on a GX-7R w/ the long needle. About to get a mugen buggy to match my truggy... hopefully I'll have a sample GXII in the next few weeks.

Also, the GXII will initially have a modified 2 needle carb, similar to the GX. The LSN will be a modified long needle w/ an all new taper. HSN will be different as well, for more finite adjustability.
