Grubee Starfire SuperRat Engine Kit!

- Start date
I decided to chance it and go with GasBike. I wanted just the engine, but there isn't anyone selling engine only Super Rats. I went ahead and bought the kit. It was $199.
I have ordered from them before, and I have had good luck. I hope my luck hasn't run out for this order 
i just ordered a super rat from piston bike. this will be my first motor. i have my fingers crossed hoping for the best.
Spent a couple of hours looking for any complaints at all. Found absolutely nothing at all. Haven't even had one letter good or bad from the BBB for the past three years. They even have a store front you can go into.
Please let us all know how it comes out...since they might sell out of them from everybody buying from a decent business.
people may not have been upset enough to file a complaint, but on the forums iv'e read plenty of negative things about them, at one point one of the people who worked there even started insulting their dissatisfied customer here on the forum.
Does anyone know if the super rat is capable of producing enough extra power out of the magneto to provide adequate lighting without killing the engine?
I'm excited and sad today. My super rat showed up in the mail today and it's great. They shipped the right motor and nothing is missing. My shifter kit from zoom cycles showed up today as well but all that was in the box was two crank arms and free wheel and a chain
Sorry to hear about your shift kit not showing up complete. How is the Super Rat in comparison to the older 2 strokes? Do you have it installed on your bike yet?I'm excited and sad today.

This is my first motor kit so I don't have anything to compare it to. I can't install this motor until I get a complete shift kit. I have a sturmey 3 speed drum rear hub
That is a bummer that your build is on hold. It sounds like it will be cool when it is completed
I bought the SBP kit for my Dad's build and he is still in the process of putting it on. All the parts are really high quality!
no resolution to my missing shifter kit parts yet but i do have a picture of the new motor Attachments
Just joking just joking.Well it's my first motor so I don't have anything to compare it with. Looks fine to me. It says it's rated at 3hp. Is it true?
