i have a question for all the zong owners out there, i have given my help best i can for what little i have to offer now im asking for a return :lol:
if you could have a website to order stock replacement parts online for your zong (all models,scooters sierria,storm and sport) what would you like to see or think you may need such as cables,fenders filters etc. I already know knobbies :oops: and if i cant get the site up fast enough would you be willing to call untill i do :?:

no suggestions do i take this as no one needs parts, no one would use my site regardless, or maybe everybody hates me so much that i cant get help, i have been told im beyond help but i thought they were kidding :cry:

I guess by all the parts that people are mainly searching for here, Things like master cylinders, Manuels, Coils, and so on...I would think most would like to find the hard parts like that. Maybe brake pads and rims Cables and such. Who knows maybe You could stock some aftermarket exhaust for them also. Sorry not a Zong owner but those are the things I would like to find.

Non Zong owner but I like to keep parts on the shelf, mostly maintenance stuff like brake pads, chain and sprockets, tubes, grips, fluids and filters. In the past have also kept so body parts around.
The thing i run into when i look at Chinese parts is poor picture quality. There are so many different bike that I'm sure the parts would interchange but without a good quality picture i would not be willing to take the gamble. Maybe even take your pictures on a grid with 1" increments. You could also check the other parts sites and see what they are always sold out of.

I have two zong 50cc engines and needed (may still need) the complete electrical system. (headlight, taillight, blinkers, controls, CDI, regulator, coil, and most importantly the wire harness)

But at this point I'll work with the old and new stuff and make my own harness as needed.

I still need a few things but most of it is here or on its way here.

im trying to get everything together my web site is listed www.hallsauto.com also in my profile but hasnt been updated in a while but heres what im doing now i have turned the design over to someone who knows how, im getting together parts with zongshen america (manny) and i have ordered a few parts direct from china, just so everyone knows i am used to getting things DONE, DONE NOW, AND DO IT RIGHT :!: like the arrow relased from the bow but since i am relying on others heres a link to how things are going (i think im along for the ride) http://bleedingmoon114.deviantart.com/art/Snail-riding-Turtle-86342783 the reason i ask is i value everyones thoughts here of what i need to carry and what i dont the people here are owners not salesmen they know what to replace or needs replacement

People also need to remember that the best price is not always the best deal.

Better to order a part from a source that you trust and know it will get to you for alittle more money.

ill take that as a compliment kato and thanks i am working really hard to keep the prices a low as i can but diffrences like having something in hand ready to sell makes it harder but its the only way i know to avoid "vaporware" as a example what if i had sold the knobbies ive been waitng for but couldnt ship, btw the last story still has them 3 weeks out who knows i do know china is scared of our economy ill let a couple of cats out of the bag here zong was going to release a watercooled dual sport and a 600cc bike this year but its not going to happen now ive seen pictures of the 600 its a sport bike and no i havent seen it anywhere else on the web i would show it but i promised :cry:

Exactly. It costs money to have parts on hand ready to ship out the next day.

Personally, I am happy to pay a little more to support a reputable dealer who keeps a good supply of parts on hand. :)

Ouch my friend! That is very discouraging... i hope insurance of sorts is able to replace that for you and the damage to the bikes? :(
And as far as the buying goes, to be honest for the start its best to have the Phone ordering :) That way people can make sure they get their model numbers right and if you've got the info there as to what part fits on what bike(s) that just makes people feel that much better :) (and talking to a person! 8O wow
-now when that side of your business gets going more, then its for your convenience and others to buy at their leisure online :) (you've already got a good reputation on this forum without a doubt) Good luck!

PARTS btw, i would include
The best of chains (the one Spud has is a definite) links, breakers etc.
Gaskets, Screw kits/nuts and bolts (maybe something comprehensive to a zong) - Magnetic Drain Plugs, Sprockets of Varying sizes with some charts "Calculated data" as well as field forum data :) [make a "customer review section"], Cables, Intakes/Exhausts, Shocks, Seat Upholstery/padding? (staple kits too now that i think about it), Rear Rack accessories (waterproof bags, cargo trucks, toolkits, TRUNKS WITH BACKRESTS--haha), LED kits- various brake and signal options?, Maybe some plastics if you can, but i haven't seen many with that kind of problem... (ZIPTIES :D)
Maybe some of those bicycle speedometers?? and possibly some of those lifan dashs :) i would like to make a project of putting a better dash on the Sierra :) [big class with the gear indicators, volt and tacho-meters ] :D
... im sort of rambling i know, but im just thinking of things various people might wish to have 8) Can't wait to hear more about it ^_^
