 Re: Riding in the hood.
Being the thrifty (ie cheap) person I am. I have tired to use the parts of my bike kit each and everyone of them. So far I have had to upgrade from my pocket... The clutch lever (chrome garbage)... the throttle and kill switch. I broke those while trying to make the engine run. The chain because I couldn't find my extra links. Today I bought some gas line from the auto parts store. I expect that was due to the old line being on and off the bike so many times. Nonetheless I had to replace it. I hope the one from the auto parts store is more resilient.
I know there is a better clutch handle with some kits but the rest is pretty much the same er er stuff (note i did not say junk) Don't get me wrong i love my bike and the engine is really quite the surprise considering how poor th rest of the kit seems to be. A lot of the stuff I broke myself, but it would have been nice if it were a little tougher.
At least when something goes wrong it cost 2 bucks not 200 like on my car. |
