Opinion on Kits

Go with DAX, he has a good product and is great to deal with. If you are looking for a high perf motor he has one also.

Amen to that,done a lot of ready here and DAX seems to be the best for the money,without doing a lot of work. A lot of people have to keep fiddling with and working on china engines. were as DAX is balanced and vibration free. I don't own one,but just what all the experienced guys have run.............Curt

I'll second what Cannonball2 says... Go with Dax, there's a big difference in quality with his engines compared to the others. I'm running a Dax bottom end on mine and run it past 10,000 rpm all the time with no complaints or vibration.

For the engines... Dax is the only place I buy from for my builds
For parts, I get the other parts from several other places like mzmiami on ebay, Fred's site www.crmachine.com for heads, Jake's for other performance parts, BGF motor on ebay for those kits with everything but the engine, and I got a few decent sources for the better large port cylinders. mzmiami also sells the cylinders with the 40mm bolt spacing on the intakes which are a really good base for a high performance build.
Another seller to consider is Venicemotorbikes.com since he's in the process of developing a new high performance head that looks great and should work just as well, I'll be buying one if his heads too once they go up for sale.
I also use www.treatland.tv for several performance parts, these aren't made for these engines but some stuff bolts right on and other stuff needs a little modification to fit.

Got a hot item on eBay it's a 212 cc 6.5 hp Preditor weights in at 38 lbs ship weight from what I see looks easy to work with centrifugal clutch or for the advanced you can likely build a clutch set with bell house and attach a stater to it it's a smart looking 4 stroke and with a Workman or better bike frame it's likely the best to start with. I'd suggest the steel frame bike only one or two I can think of..

Husky.com has nice heavy wheels...............Curt

Nothing like buying a kit from a local dealer less than 10 miles from you.

I have the 40 mm stroke PK 80 style 69 cc motors that everyone likes.
The motors now have really nice ports on them too.

Many upgraded parts in the kit, like all allen head bolts on the motor.
41 tooth sprocket, Speed carb, 4 bolt non slip chain tensioner, etc, etc.

A top of the line kit that I assemble and quality control the motor on.

You will save a lot of money, plus have local support and parts available.

You can't beat buying in person to check it all out before the sale.
thanks.
