So she has 500 miles on her now. Some things I have noticed over the past couple months on this bike.
Top speed with me, about 200lbs, is roughly 65.
The carb was a pain to adjust properly and I'm not certain I have it right yet.
The small tires are perfectly fine, expected them to loose grip time to time.
The original gearing is worthless, ordered a new 16 gear for the front. Will report back on how that changes top speed.
Tighten the bolts, lost the steering lock somewhere between here and work one day. And the front rotor came loose. Don't forget about that one.
All in all, I think the bike was a perfect purchase for a first bike. Had no issues titling from anamcycles here in MO. Time to start modding. Front sprocket first, then probably air filter/jet.
