i AGREE WITH THE FIRST COMMENT.
WHAT I SAY TAKE IT FOR WHAT IT IS WORTH .
FIRST IF YOU ARE NOT A MECHANIC, AN HAVE PLENTY OF PATIENTS REPEAT PATIENTS . DO NO, DO NOT PURCHASE THIS 260, SO THEY CLAIM.
FOR TURN SINGAL SWITCHES, IF THEY GAVE YOU A DOZEN, THEY WILL NOT LAST . ( IF YOU USE THEM . ) BREAK DOWN AN GO TO A BIKE SHOP AN PURCHASE ONE. ( LUCKIE i, MADE MY OWN, ONLY THING IT DOES NOT SELF CANCEL )
FOR SAFETY, NEVER, NEVER START IT ON THE SIDE STAND, FOR SOONER THAN LATER YOU WILL FIND IT ON THE GROUND. FOR IT DOES NOT LOCK IN PLACE LIKE A REGULAR M/C. USE THE CENTER STAND.EITHER ONE MAKE SURE IT IS IN AN ON A SOLID FLOOR OR UP A SITE GRADE.
NEXT, WHEN YOU FIRST START CHECKING IT OUT, FOR ALL FLUIDS, DO SO, AN FOR THE COOLING SYSTEM, DO IT EVER FEW MILES, FOR IF YOU KEEP FILLING THE RESEVOIR, THAT WILL NOT GET THE RADIATOR FULL, SO ALWAYS MAKE SURE YOU FILL, FROM UNDER THE SEAT. WHY FOR MINE GOT HOT, SO YOU LOOK AT THE RESEVOUR BY YOUR GAS FILL, THAT IS GOING TO SHOW AN, NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM .
REALLY TO SAVE TIME, WHEN YOU FIRST GET THE WHOLE THING, TEAR IT ALL APART AN RE ASSEMBLE, YES, YOU HEARD ME, FOR IN DUE TIME YOU WILL BE SAYING THE SAME THING. FOR YOU WILL DICOVER MISSING PARTS THAT WERE NEVER EVER INSTALLED, MINE DID NOT HAVE THE MANIFOLD GASKET, AN THEY TRIDED TIGHTEN IT TO STOP IT FROM LEAKING, THEY BENT THE EARS ON THE CLAMP, WHEN IT HEATED UP THE NUSTS CAME OFF AN ONE STUD CAME OUT. WE MFG OUR OWN GASKET AN MADE NEW STUDS,
NEXT THE SMALL VENTS BY THE FOOT PEGS, WELL BEWARE THEY WILL NOT BE THERE LONG, FOR THEY SNAP OVER A PLASTIC PIOLIT PIN, AN THREW THE VIBRATION, THEY SNAP OFF, AN THEY WILL BE MISSING .GET SCOCH DUBLLED SIDED TAPE, AN PUT THAT ON AN THEY MAKE 2 TRIPS AROUND THE BLOCK.
ALSO WHEN YOU FILL THE GAS TANK, TAKE YOUR TIME, FOR THE FIRST TIME, MINE AROND THE SEAM IT WAS NOT MFG PROPERLY, LUCKIE i MADE UP A TOOL TO RUB JB WELD IN THERE TO STOP THAT LEAK.
NEXT I ORDERED NEW TIRES, FOR THE BRAND NAME, I DIDN'T CARE FOR, SO THE BEST i COULD FIND WERE AVON, THAT WAS A MISTAKE FOR WHEN THEY CAME IN, NOT THE AVONS I KNEW WHEN I WAS IN BUISNESS, ONE WAS OUT OF ROUND, WAITING FOR A PICK UP SLIP . AT LEAST THAT WON'T TAKE 3 WEEKS.
BIG BIG QUESTION, WHAT IN THE HECK IS A WARRANTY NOW DAYS. NOW THE BIKES I SOLD WAS WARRANTYED, AN I WAS REIMBURSED FOR ANY WARRTY WORK . WITH THERE WARRANTY, AS I SEE IT, THEY SUPPLY THE PARTS. AN YOU PAY THE LABOR . AM I CORRECT ????? AS IT IS TO DAY, 50 TO 65 DOLLARS AN HOUR, TO HAVE THE REAR TIRE CHANGED, ( I KNOW IT IS NOT A WARRANTY JOB, YOU CAN SAY 45 MIN TO 1 HOUR.
WARRNTY NOW DAYS TO THEM IS A FARCE .
THE TOTE BOX, WELL, THEY SENT APIECE OF GAKET, TO GO AROUND THE TOP, BUT SHORT 14" TO COMPLETE TTHAT JOB.
i COULD GO ON AN ON, FOR i AM WAITING FOR PARTS ALSO . I NOTICED THERE IS A MFG, THAT MAKES A CYCLINDER HEAD AN PISTON THAT WILL RAISE IT TO A 300 CCC. THAT WILL BE MY NEXT PROJECT, AFTER IT GET ALL PARTS TO BUILD MY OWN, FO THEY SHOW IT GOING UP TO 80+ MPH. FOR MINE MOST I EVER GOT WAS 65 DOWN GRADE. AS I STATED BEFORE, ONLY WAY AS IS, TO SEE 80, IS TO TOSS IT OVER THE GREAT WALL WHICH IS NOT TO BAD OF AN IDEA. ( PATIENTS )
YES FROM WHAT i SEE SO FAR, AN HAVE READ NOW. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON EVERYONE OUT THERE. QUOTE, ANY ADULT PURCHASING THIS FOR ANY OF HIS CHILDREN, DO NOT, FOR THEY ARE TO UN SAFE, I COULD COME UP WITH MANY REASONS.
MYSELF I AM RETIRED, AN OPERATED A M/C SHOP YEARS AGO . ONE THING I NEVER RUN IT LIKE WE ARE BEING SHOUVED AROUND . FOR NO PARTS AVAILABLE, DON'T GO OVER 30 MILES FROM HOME. FOR SOONER THAN LATER YOU ARE GOING TO BE HOOFING IT HOME. YES i AM SURE THERE IS SOME ONE THAT HAS MADE IT A SLIGHT DISTANCE FUTHER..
jUST STAY AWAY, SAVE MONEY, PURCHASE SOMETHING THAT MAY COST MORE, AN A LITTLE MORE TO BE DEPENDABLE.
DO NOT TRY TO TRADE IT IN ON SOMETHING, FOR YOU WILL REALLY GET YOUR FEALiNGS HURT. THEY DON'T WANT IT, THEY WILL TELL YOU TO TAKE IT TO A FLOWER SHOP, AN YOU MAY GET $18.39 . I SAID MAY.
I HOPE THIS HELPS SOMEBODY . AN HOPE THOSE THAT HAVE ONE, GOOD LUCK, FOR YOU WILL NEED IT. THOSE THAT ARE LOOKING . BEWARE.
HAVE A HAPPY LABOR DAY WEEK END. |
