Just got back home from a short 10 mile pleasure cruise...I can tell you that Bofeng carby makes a real difference on these Zeda 80s...If you remember, I had bought my Zeda kit in May of 2020, thats before they started using Bofengs as stock on these...Mine had the usual NT, and while it was good, the Bofeng is definitely better, smoother throttle response through all ranges and noticably better gas mileage as well...I went from 95 MPG with the NT to at least 115 MPG, if not a little more already, and its idle is sooooo smooth, as I prefer a lower idle which is of course very quiet in comparison as well.
All in all, a very satisfying street rider for all around town use and a very pleasant ride today cruising between 30 to 35 MPH at a quarter throttle...lol.
When i read about all the problems other members always seem to be having with their bikes, I feel i am truly blessed to have such a fine running machine, built the right way, the first time...It doesn't get much better than this with these things...lol...The only real nuisance was just the drive side chain guards that were constantly breaking off and it appears I now have that problem solved too...lol...Robb
Ps...60 degrees today here in Alamogordo, perfect riding weather and no wind today...4500 ft altitude above sea level...lol.
The new chainguard weighs in at one full pound and is slightly larger than the cheap kit ones that only weigh in at 5.6 ounces...heavier guage steel than stock...It is mounted using two "Adel" clamps from F-16 fighters to secure it on the frame of the bike, fore and aft, rather than attaching the front to the motor so as to avoid metal fatigue and breakage caused by normal motor and road vibrations.

I'm keeping it anyways, it's just so cool to fire up and blast down the street. For a serious commuter I am eyeing one of these, 52V, 19.2 Mah, full suspension, blinkers etc. I have to get off my scooters, with 10 in. tires they're to risky for an old dude like me.
