Bgf no good, Recomend engine supplier?

[bluenosegoat]

So I just got my 15th engine from BGF and it will not even turn over! The piston hits the cylinder head! I've never encountered this problem before but I made a couple base gaskets (thin material) to bring the deck height back to normal and seems to be fine now. Might have to remove one as the engine seems to not have enough compression but will have to ride and see. Rick shi at bgf says he'll send me a head gasket but I will have to pay shipping- not gonna cut it with me. Sell me junk and dont fix it then sell me nothing!

Anyways I am wondering if anyone can recomend an engine kit supplier? I seem to build a bike a month just to sell and I need a good source for my stuff. Opinions please on where you get your supplies

Since your in AZ may I recommend Home in Tucson or USABikeMotors, Your source for Grubee StarFire Bike Motor Kits, Parts, Service (eco rider,llc)

I believe Freedoms ebay store is up and new web site should be up shortly but give them a call and ask for Grumpy. (520) 777-0926

Both of these guys have been supplying engine kits/parts/complete bicycle ect for years. And don't forget to ask them about the wholesale opportunity.

Justin at Pirate stands behind what he sells, gives great service and speaks English, too! The PK-80 engine he sells is a good one.

Zoombicycles.com has always done good by me. When I was building and selling motorized bicycles across the country I would order 5-10 motors at a time and have had good results.

If I remember right you get free shipping on purchasing 3 or more motors kits and of course no taxes because its from Canada.

Good Luck
