The need to sell a "kit"

[Kevlarr]

I mean a TRUE kit. Someone needs to start selling the HT motors completely disassembled and let us put them together ourselves. Heck, it'd save time taking one apart first.

LOL I second that. At least give 2 options: 1st is the way the kits come now for those who who can't or don't want to assemble an engine and 2nd is all apart and in pieces for those who wish to rework them (i.e. correct all the manufacturing defects).

Think of the current kits as pre-kit kits.

I've seen other 2 stroke engines from China offered that way. I would buy one. Gosh, how cheap would the "pre-kit" cost??????? $49-59????

The only bad side I foresee is that with the poor quality control in these factories as it is lots of these unassembled kits would probably arrive missing parts.

As a non-sequitur, I used to be into Radio Control cars that you had to assemble yourself nut and bolt and bought a few kits from Associated (American company) and Kyosho and Tamiya (both Japanese) and never had even one nut or washer missing. Good logistics and quality control.

If they came unassembled, maybe that would get around the EVIL C.A.R.B regs here in Cali.....Its just a box of "spare" parts then rite?...lol

That's a good point.
