Take the directions with a large grain of salt, look around here for anything you may encounter.

DONT over tightin.

old inner tube rubber might help with reduceing viberation.

do the sprocket 1st, becuz if you do the engine and be real frustrated when it take FOREVER to get the sprocket right.

so sprocket 1st becuase ull treat your self with the engine being "easer" and be happy.

also its easer to flip the bike for sprocket adjustment.

by the way, if its like a 12 speed, the front shifter derailer might have to come off.

ps have some soap for putting on the left grip. its a truffy

Good points Mike.

Don't count on the kill switch working for long or at all, I delete mine right to the garbage can.

Don't over tighten the chain either.

Thanks. These are the tips that will make or brake my patience.

And can somebody link a site to me for a good kill switch?

And I have a 7 speed urban cruiser. I just got the new motor tonight. Now I need to make sure its good.


thanks

Step 37 of your instructions PDF shows Live Fast Motors kill switch and many other vendors sell the same set up or one that is a little more orange. Live fast and most vendors will sell a kill switch or Radio Shack will sell one also.
