A small piece of 4taktwinkel history:

We remember it well: back in 2013 we launched our webshop.
Since then, we’ve grown steadily, with major spikes during the COVID period — everyone was at home working on their hobby!
After COVID, we completely revamped the website: we made it available in four languages and recently added the new “search by diagram” feature.

Thank you for your trust!
On to order number two hundred thousand 😀👍🏻

1. Setting the valves: Valves that are properly set ensure optimal engine combustion and performance. However, wear can cause valve clearance. Valves set too loosely create a ticking sound and can hammer the valve to pieces. Valves that are too tight do not seal properly on the cylinder head and eventually lead to compression loss or the exhaust valve burning.

2. Changing the oil: The oil in your engine block contains important additives and molecules that prevent wear in your engine block. The older the oil, the more these properties disappear. Also, over time, the oil collects dirt, which can get back into the engine block. And you don't want that! Therefore, change your oil (and oil filter if necessary) regularly.
3. Tensioning & lubricating the chain: A properly tensioned and lubricated chain improves the transfer of power from the engine to the rear wheel, which ensures that your moped runs smoothly. A too slack, or dry, chain can also cause wear on the chain and sprockets. Therefore, check regularly whether you need to tension and/or lubricate your chain.
4. Inflating the tires: You only really enjoy driving when your tires are at the right pressure. Too soft tires reduce stability, increase braking distance, fuel consumption and wear. The correct tire pressure varies from moped to moped and depends on the weight, type of tire and tire load. The rear tire usually needs more pressure because there is more weight on it. Check your tire pressure regularly, especially if your moped has been stationary for a long time. And check the condition and profile of your tires immediately!
5. Checking the bearings: Mopeds contain various bearings. Bearings reduce friction and allow moving parts to rotate smoothly. With a worn bearing, for example, an axle turns a lot harder and wears out faster. Also, a bearing should not have horizontal or vertical clearance. You can prevent this by regularly checking bearings for clearance and wear, and replacing them if necessary.
6. Checking the clearance of the steering bearing and swingarm: The steering bearing is the important connection between the handlebars and the front fork. The swingarm is the rear suspension of your moped. If you have too much play here, the moped can become unstable and difficult to steer. So check these, and adjust if necessary. This way you reduce the risk of accidents.

7. Cleaning and lubricating cables: When you are doing maintenance, you may have to disconnect a cable. At that point, remember to clean and lubricate the cable before you replace it. This will keep it running smoothly.
8. Cleaning electronics: Pulled out a plug? Then accustom yourself to clean it immediately and spray it with contact spray before placing it back.
9. Checking rubbers: Rubbers provide stability and prevent clearance and vibration on parts of your moped. If you remove a part, immediately check the condition of the rubber. Replace the rubber if necessary.
10. Protecting the rims: Cold and moisture can cause corrosion (rust) on your moped. You can protect chrome and metal parts, such as rims and spokes, by coating them with Vaseline spray. We recommend that you do this at least in the fall and winter. In addition to protecting chrome and metal parts, you can of course polish the chrome. How to do this is shown in this video!
11. Replacing the chain and sprockets: The chain and sprockets are an indispensable part of your moped and wear out slowly, with normal use. A worn-out chain set can lead to poor performance and lower reliability and safety of your moped. We recommend that you check your chain set (chain and sprockets) regularly for wear, and replace them anyway every 5,000 - 10,000 kilometers or so.
12. Replacing tires: Tires provide grip, stability and control of your moped. Not only the tire pressure is important, but also the profile of your tires. Worn tires with little profile can cause you to lose grip, especially on wet roads. Are your tires getting dry, are they older than 5 years, or have you driven 5,000 (rear tire) to 10,000 (front tire) kilometers on them? Then replace them!

To help you narrow down your search for a cylinder set for your Honda four-stroke moped, we made a list. In this list you will find which set fits your model.

Please check first if your engine is an actual new type (NT) engine. In the list below the models are listed with NT-type engine. Is your model not listed in this list?
Please read further in our blog about OT cylinder sets. Is your model also not listed in that list, please contact us.

Models with a new type (NT) engine:

New type engines are recognizable by its 12 volt electrical system with CDI ignition, also referred to as electronic ignition. Honda engine codes: GB4, GK4 or GB2

• Honda C50 NT, C70 NT (please check your engine code)
• Honda Dax (type AB23)
• Honda Benly (CD50 or CL50)

If you confirmed your moped has a new type engine, please search the list below for the desired displacement. When you decide to keep using your old cylinder head, please pay attention if the desired set fits with your current head. Its also possible to replace the cylinder and the cylinder head at the same time.

PLEASE NOTE!
We assume that engines are original! If you are doubting that your engine is original, please contact us!
