The pic of the plug shows the inside of the plug boot still on the plug. It might cause you some problems if it shakes off or is loose now...I'd suggest replacing the cap and wire with a good automotive wire and boot.
ya I replaced the boot and plug a while ago. used an indian motorcycle boot lol. i need to get a new carb and throttle cable. my cable looks like a darn hamster nawed on it.. idk how that happend.
I will give you a pat on the back, it's cool you get a feeling of accomplishment from learning new things on your own. The school of "Hard Knocks"(learning through self experience) is a tuff school, but the best school because you never forget your mistakes or accomplishments.
ya id definitely say that this bike has been a huge learning experience. i took a small engines class last year, and with in the 5 months ive owned this bike i learned more than in a whole school year. i still have fixed the bike yet.. but christmas is around the corner and i told my parents what i needed to fix my bike. i got a new rt carb, throttle with integrated kill switch, and a 41 tooth sprocket. i want to get a x pipe. but im gonna have to save on my own for one.
Good for you, Merry Christmas. Keep on saving for that pipe, I think you will learn that it is the best mod you can do to your china girl. I hope you got a good rt as some can't get a consistent idle no matter how well it is sealed. Have fun.
Here is one I built
Genesis...what part of Florida you in? I have a brand new expansion chamber laying around that I will let go cheap!

so heres what my bike looks like today! to this day im still not even close to finishing my bike. i still need to get the tank bondo and painted. http://i1277.photobucket.com/albums/y487/jonathan_crippen1/IMG_20130121_152147_zps1d34431d.jpg
The one that comes in the kits fits just fine. When I put mine on I ran 6 out 9 bolts skipping every third hole. I've been riding it like that for quite a while with no problems
Hey Wats up everyone. I told myself never again when I blew my last motor. That was about a year ago. But I got a job now and some extra cash to spend so I've decided to get back into enjoying the fun of tinkering these little China kits. I'll be using the same bike but I've painted the fork, fender, and handlebars teal, and the frame flat black. Right out of the box I'm tossing the muffler, throttle, carb, intake, and the head. This time I'm around I'm trying to get rid of all the parts that always broke on me. I just bought a new 70cc hi hi compression puch head (which I've heard great stuff about) I've got decent x pipe, a sbp throttle (this thing won't break I'm sure) and an rt carb, high performance plug wire along with an ngk plug. I'm hoping for a max speed of 35 maybe even 38 and a decent cruising speed of 25 maybe 30. Also I'll be running a 36 tooth sprocket. I'll be using it about 3 times a week on 15 mile round trip. Hopefully this all works out and doesn't break down all the time because I need this to get to work
will. my kit should be here tomorrow. the head should be here by wednesday. any suggestions that you have for reliability that would be awesome
