[ss27gogeta]

You said you got tags for it hows its street manners. And dose the mco say motorcycle or offroad only/dirt bike I've always thought it be cool to have a street leagle 2 stroke.

MCO says motorcycle, you take the MCO pay the sales tax and it's no questions asked. You will recieve plate in mail nothing required. Its counter balanced, and very very silky smooth. There is no constant acceleration/deceleration or coming onto the pipe etc. In terms of vibration, I think the WR250R is an excellent bike to compare it to. It is much stiffer however, even on the softest suspension settings, and the seat is like a rock. My seat is getting a bit softer with time. That aside, it does very well on the street. The stiff suspension doesn't bother me, I actually enjoy being able to really feel out the road. No idea on gas mileage, others on the ADV forum have claimed around 35MPG which sounds right. This machine is oil injected and damn, it barely sips the oil. Not sure the total capacity of the oil fill up but I suspect the tank will last easily 5 tanks of fuel if not more. I wanna say I used maybe 60% of a quart to fill it, can't remember. Stock fuel tank is 1.9 gallons, so you won't be going far. GPXMOTO, I believe, has in stock the oversized tank priced less than 200 dollars. Wanna say its a 3.1/3.4 but it's out there for those who want it.

Thats good to hear the mco says motorcycle dose it come with turnsignals or dose gpxmoto sell a turnsignal kit. I live in Indiana so the mco has to say motorcycle and needs lights and turnsignals to get a plate. I can for see one of these in my future since it should be easy to plate. I just got an rxb 150 so it might be a bit though.

There is a light n loom set etc for these in China - worst case I am sure I can supply.

I had several street legal 2 strokes in the 60's thru the late 70's that did quite respectably against the 4 strokes.

Kawasaki A1 250, KE 175, Can Am 175 enduro, Suzuki 370 (not exactly street legal but, hey we were rural), Can Am 250 qualifier... almost forgot Bridgestone 90... I still have an early 70's Kawasaki 90 kids bike that is locked up and someday... and y-zinger 50 that still runs.

It amazed me that diesel trucks, capable of obscuring the highway for miles with black smoke emissions were OK and small displacement 2 stroke bikes were killing the planet...

Here is the video post jetting. Bike is def faster than the WR now. Just don't have the gears to hang past 55mph.
