Ok...48cc motor
Noob here and I hope I do not set off sparks by asking this question: Which engine and where is the best place to buy??
I am headed towards buying a HT engine kit for my bike transformation to Motored! I have read evaluations of various vendors. The variety from Gasbike seems to be wide and their rating decent. Mostly. So yes, chain driven and 2 stroke for me, for no at least...
So I see Grebe( China- perceieved as not so quality) and all sorts of Raw / Ghost, etc , etc. Balck Horse etc . Some black ( mostly cosmetic AFAIK) some not, slant heads ( for mostly clearance issues AFAIK)
1. Is there a better place to buy from? If so why?
2. Is there one of the 49cc engine or kits that is, for reasons I may or may not yet fully grasped, that I should consider first?
I want the kit that comes with the most dependable engine, click and hold clutch handle, best series carb, throttle with inegrated kill switch, etc that I have seem listed.
I do know that I still may and will want to upgrade components at a later time.
I am mechanically able, have a shop and understand that oney buys quality. But to a NOOB, many things may be equal in these little engine kits and some may not. I would rather save my money for needed extras and not waste it on "names"...
Be kind, and let the rock throwing commence!
Kidding, a little- seems a good buch here so far. I just cant get a handle on is there a "nw "series of a certain engine thatI should buy or avoid...
