Most kits are the same (similar), except very rare cases. For example Rocksolidengines in australia who rebuild their engines and replace with quality bolts and stuff before selling them. I don't know of any vendor in USA that does this. Other than these kits, and the branded kits which concentrate more on performance than quality, most engines are same (similar).

I used to stall my bike to stop it, but instead of jerking my bike to a stop, I disengaged the clutch, came to a rolling stop, then engaged it. That was before I worked out my kill switch. I believe the stalling way is better for the engine because the kill switch pretty much short circuits everything to stop the engine, plus it tends to flood the engine:confused:.
Not really, I've never flooded an engine that way but that's odd..... All the kill switch does is cut the spark, I think if you had choked the engine while it was warm, then it may have flooded out. I've never heard of that happening before.

I am familiar with his motors, I don't think i'd ever want that much power on a bicycle lol. 40 is fast enough for me. As for this argument why don't we just end it I admit I was wrong, I admit fault. I think the motors could be made to last longer but I still say that most of them aren't the same. SIMILAR but not the same
