I have stayed up all night after work last few days putting this together by myself since this is for Christmas and getting up before work to work on it ....I am tired.

Are they aware that you're sharing your experiences with an online China-machine enthusiast community?

Sounds like how my projects tend go. Spent way too many hours loading things that do not want to fit. I have never heard of the enduro being too big for liftgate service.

The shipping company had these items 5 days, I contacted them on Friday and they said it would be delivered by Wednesday, by then they had it for over a week. I wonder if they didn't have any deliveries in the area (88 miles away from them) and didn't want to come out.

I wouldn't doubt it.

I'm sorry to say it, but it seems honor has greatly disappeared from this nation.

Uncrating pictures in shippers parking lot, It got dark on me so pics not very good.

andyj812 · 12-14-2014, 05:48 PM

I am glad you are being compensated.

I'm sure you are tired.

After you rest a bit, please do post photographs.

SpudRider · 12-14-2014, 05:58 PM

Thanks for posting the photos. That looks like a nice UTV.

I eagerly await more photographs taken outside, in daylight.

SpudRider · 12-14-2014, 06:49 PM

I like it!

We love photos; keep posting them.

SpudRider · 12-14-2014, 06:56 PM

Wow! That UTV looks great.

How did you discover BMS? Judging from the telephone area code, this company is located close to CSC Motorcycles, in Azusa, California.

What are the cooler lines for? It looks like they connect to the engine, but I can't be sure. The cooler that is in front of the rad looks to be very well thought out.

Any idea what the engine is patterned after? I wonder if it's like a Kawasaki Mule.

Have you considered spraying bedliner in the box? I spotted the box mat, but it's the sides I'm thinking about.

This is a Rhino clone, I'm not exactly sure what it cloned in but I read in another forum when trying to research before I ordered it that it was possibility an unused engine designed for Suzuki but I have no way of verifying that. I believe those lines are oil cooler lines, they connect to the engine near the oil filter.
