Thats really funny...
Try looking or put an ad on your local Craigslist so you don't have to pay for shipping.

Or you could just start getting into the hobby and soon you will have your
very own blown motors LOL

i think you're doing something wrong whether it be beating the **** out of the engine, poor mixing, not adjusting the carb for your altitude,not mounting your motors as securely as you thought, or simply improperly measuring how far you've actually gone.

they mite not be the longest lasting motors on the planet, but the average break in period is a few hundred miles so i'm sure you can see where my skepticism comes from.

don't mean to come off as a jerk but something just doesn't seem right.

Frankie a lot of people think there is a market for these bikes cause everyone who sees one likes the novelty but most won't invest in one good luck in your venture!

Well, if you build em, you should ride em - leave your personal one out there during business hours. Unless you weld it to a frame, you're not going to have one there for very long.

Crescent wrench and a chain breaker will get that motor off the bike in less than 5 minutes.
