Default Brand New Member, Years Old Kit

Hi. I searched YouTube for motorized bicycles, and your website came up. I must say, I wasn't expecting an entire community dedicated to these things!

A few years ago, a friend of my father's game me one of the 2-stroke kits. I meant to set it up, but it came with no directions... I don't even know if all of the parts are there. The kit has been used, but I was told "not very much."

I'd love to get the kit working--school is a couple miles away and it would be more fun on a motorized cycle than boring pedal power. I tried google searching for a manual, but I couldn't find one...

Could anybody e-mail me a manual? Also, before I start working on the thing, are there are preparations that should take priority? I know very little about engine maintenance. Is sitting for that long damaging to it? Do I need to oil it? (the disassembled engine is literally sitting in parts in a cardboard box...possibly with fuel still in the tank.)

Thanks.

Now that what I'm talking about

Welcome to the forum, glad you joined us.

Link to manual.......http://motorbicycling.com/f6/vendor-...uals-3536.html

Link........http://motorbicycling.com/f30/bicycl...-care-354.html

If there is fuel in the tank I would drain it and get some fresh fuel and 2-stroke oil.

If any of the links do not help, just ask always someone here willing to help out and get you going.
