I put heatshrink over these to minimise moisture getting into them. Theres nothing stopping water/mud getting down into the connectors. The start and kill switch terminals are pretty cheap and nasty.
They were all locktited and have not come loose after some pretty hard riding One of the front sprocket bolts and 2 of the chain slider bolts were loose. We re-loktited it and it seems to be ok but i check it before every ride to be safe
You cant tighten it too much or the lever wont have any free play. The main nut that holds the rear brake lever does not have any type of shim to hold it in. We decided to run it around the paddock for 30 minutes then check everything over. on visual inspection it looks well designed and built. It is a blatant rip off of the Honda CR 250. It is a slick looking bike, very tall initialy before the suspension settles a bit. I spent ages on this site reading up on things you need to do to the chinas if you want them to run for any period of time. I will do my best to list the problems you should definately check /rectify with these bikes!īefore I bought the bike I was fully Expecting to have to do an out of crate assembly. Most of the dramas listed below he had as well. I have had the bike for a bit over a month and thanks to a month worth of holidays and mostly good weather, I have logged about 20 hours on it so far, with its first service done at 10. There doesnt seem to be much info kicking around about these particular bikes so i thought I would chuck in a little review and thoughts.
