Re: Mitsubishi 43cc kit I purchased this friction drive because of the engage and dis-engage
option with the lever handle. In stop and go traffic it quickly became
a pain in the ***. So as I was impatently waiting, instead of killing the
engine and peddle up to speed again, I left the motor run and peddle a
little bit and engage with rollers already turning and it spun the tire on
the rim enough to snap the valve stem off the tube. It set in my machine
shed with a flat for a long time before I even got to it ,to replace the tube.
Thats why there is such low milage on it.
The set up can be very frustating if you have not set one up before.
But once you have it set up right it can be very enjoyable as long as you
remember to kill the engine when you are coming up to stop or simply dis-
engage by lever handle and then kill engine. Start peddling again and engage
lever handle again and your on your way........Still interested? |
