That hibird one looks pretty good... It looks to be scaled a little bigger.

Need help! I'm new!
Just got mine yesterday and it's so sweet!!!! I drove about 100miles on it no problem but I noticed the speedo is off by like 15MPH (wtf) I was going about 40 but the speedo was reading 65... I also noticed the brake light sucks other then that it's a tight chopper. Just odered my mirrors yesterday too... Any help on this bike would be sweet.. Thanks

Hate to say it but start reading from pg.1
I think I would be the one that has done the most repairs and MOD's. Feel free to ask for help. |

I have read from pg1
I have read from pg1, I would like to know where you got that brake light and how much it was, does it come with signals like the stock one? I found the relay for the brake light so i'm guessing i would have switch out the whole cable and not splice into the wire. was it hard to change out your speedo?

I got most of the lights from ebay....you can do any light config.your
hart desires.However you would be right to replace and upgrade the wiring harness.I went to a local electronics do is your self store and got a 6 in one wire strand (6 wires of diff. colore wrapped in one). The wire is thicker and easy to work with.Now for the speedo.. take it off.You could get away with a bicycle one.That's about what mine is but it has a few more bells and whistles.It helped that I fab'ed my own rear fender that way I could mount the lights to it. Ill try to get more vid up in the weeks to come to show the "how to's" But for me it was simple just trial and error.I think once you get started it gets easyer.When wiring up the lights get a pen and paper wright down your findings.One more thing....before you start get a new main fuse.Raido shack I think has them for 2-3 bucks.If you dont burn out the fuse carry it with you in a repair kit that has ALL the tools to fix most repairs. |

oil change and driving problems
What type of oil does this bike take? How do you even do an oil change on this? Okay I've put some miles on the bike 180 is that a lot? I want to do an oil change cause who knows when the oil was first pured into this bike.
The problem part!- okay when i'm riding the bike wants to stall out, Ill shift into 2nd gear does the same thing, 3rd same and so on- when i roll on the throttle it seems like the bike isn't getting gas.. Okay now the choke needs to be all the way down right? or up? or in the middle? and the fuel valve needs to be in what position? and the little nut with the spring on the right side needs to be tourqed how much.. sorry for all the stupid question but i'm new to the bike scene but love it. |

Its been a while but I belive choke up to start then down to run.
The petcock valve can be up or down.And the little nut with the spring... try turning it all the way right (while idleing)as it starts to cut out go left alittle.The nut with the spring is the air fule mix if that helps. |

thanks
You've helped me out with that big time, I thank you but now for my problem, What do you think it could be? I try to open it in full throttle and it sounds like no fuel gets to the engine and it wants to turn off

Try adjusting the air/fuel.But I suspect that your carb is getting rust
in it.One of the first things I would do is treat the fuel tank. Because these things are cheaply made the tank will rust. And rust will mess with idle and fuel delivery.I think their is a vid on a carb MOD that will help.The carb is the same as the dirt bike 200 cc. Changing oil soon would be a good idea.I used 2 cinder blocks. Set them about 2 ft.apart.Park next to them lift the rear end and swing it on top.MAKE SURE BIKE IS STABLE!!!!!Their is a drain plug at the bottom of the engine.Better that engine is warmed up. I cant remember the type of oil but I use synthetic, get with a moto shop they could tell you.I think it will take 2.5 qt. You will need a funnel for the oil.And to check oil level you will have to make sure the bike is level.I have my wife check it wile I hold. |
