I've been working on my latest build for weeks now and just yesterday came my first test run! It is a micargi cruiser type with a ez-motorbike automatic kit (brand new). After fixing a few chain-tension issues I took the bike for a spin and everything seemed to be working fine, although it seemed to me like the rpm's were pretty high for how fast I was going. When I got to the end of the street I turned around and started to drive back. The street was a slight incline on the way back and the bike continued to run up the rpms but the power being transferred was not enough to climb a very slight incline. Also i'm not sure what the transmission/engine should sound like but it sounds like something may be scraping and there is a rubber burning smell. I haven't broken in a 4 stroke engine before but this doesn't seem normal to me. I've stopped running it for fear that it might get more damaged.
Can anyone tell me what might be going on here? Thanks
