Yes, it's a shame. I had heard of this company, if you can call it that. There's so many good people selling online. It's a shame these people don't get shut down & jailed.

I made a purchase from these guys a while back. I would look up their business reputation with the Georgia BBB. I ended up having to report them to get my money back. They only sent half the order but kept all the money. I did finally get half the money back but it was a fight. Also they don't take credit cards. They want money orders and wire transfers... Red Flag!!!

I looked at this kit as well. One thing that got me was that in the description, it mentioned how to install the rear sprocket, but we all know Whizzers are belt driven, not chain driven.

Yeah Butch, that's a good one. You got a good eye for details.

I've wondered what these thieves do if someone actually orders a complete Whizzer bike from them? You'll notice on their testimonials page that there's not one Whizzer related item. And I think they don't take credit cards anymore is because there were so many chargebacks from ripped off customers that the credit card companies dumped them.

WOW..... Nice website but you cant add anything to the purchase box. These guys are about as low as scum. They need to be arrested and prosecuted. They are actually committing a felony. If more than one person owns the company or he or she has any employees or ever has when such crimes have been committed then its considered Conspiracy! Thats a Felony.

Whizzer can also be held liable or at the very least be taken to court and drug thru the system before excused at the very very least. They have a responsabilty to at least contact these guys throwing your name around like you are a full fledge dealer of some sort. First it can be proven that they know about these guys. That looks very bad for them since they chose to do nothing. That can possibly be made to look like they support these Felchers! I know many an attorney who would gladly name them in a law suit with these yahoos. Good thing I wasnt screwed buy them. Because thats exactly what I would do. You dont let people get away with crap like that. If Whizzer got wind they were going to also be included in a law suit then you sure as **** can bet they would start to care about who is saying what with there name! Just my 2 cents worth.

There are usualy several Whizzer engines Old and New on eBay at any given time. The only problem is they are pretty expensive and you usually have to buy motor mounts, fuel tank and other things to make them work. Remanafactured parts are available for Whizzer engines, but they are also expensive. I have about $1700 invested so far in a vintage Whizzer H engine and Columbia bike project.

Don't let the larger size mislead you though. A modern 50cc 2 stroke could probably outrun a Vintage Whizzer. That's why I am upset about the 50cc laws in several states. Maybe that's because I am vintage. I owned a Whizzer Pacemaker when I was 14, and tha was a lot of years ago.

I have seen new Whizzers on eBay, sometimes for under $1000, but I like the vintage ones.
