I purchased a motorized bike from a guy in San Francisco, and after riding it for less than 30 days, it broke down and he couldn't figure out how to fix it -- so he sold me a second engine at a reduced price (how dumb am I) and I put it together myself. It worked for 3 days ... After finally talking to a car engine guru in my family, it appears that both experienced a broken piston ring causing a scored piston. The label on the engine is Rico Group Inc.
I understand I can have the piston machined back into shape ... any suggestions on where to get replacement piston rings? Also, any recommendation on a good quality motor -- this seems to be NOT.
