I think everyone has formed an opinion about bgf by now, based on the vendor reviews. This thread is supposed to be about this particular kit. If anyone chances it and buys one, great.

Let's here about the kit.

I vote with Joe I want to know about this kit.

Everyone of these Chinese kits is a shot in the dark. The fact that some guys stand by them is a simple rule of economics. You charge a percentage more based on the cost of replacing a certain number of kits. That is what the so called great customer service really is. At least that my opinion when it comes to china bikes.

It's kinda like the flu shots. They give them at the health clinic for twenty bucks or you can go to a private clinic for 45 bucks. My son in law says it's worth the $25extra not to wait in line with the riff raff. LOL the riff raff is me.

So tell us about the kits. And someone else will sell the kits if there is a buck to be made from them. You can just bet on it.

I have done busness with BGF repetedly for 3-4 years, along with many other well known suppliers. BGF has ALWAYS done the most that can be done to care for the buyer! They will work with you a a little on shipping rates, by email. They will get you what you want even if it's not in the catalog.
And, they will Certanly send you a new motor kit.
