1. The front motor mount broke after a few days. cost me $20
(improper instillation)
2. The spokes broke twice $50
(not sure, sounds like a instillation problem, never a broken spoke and all is stock)
3. The bolts all come loose and fall off. $10
(another case of improper instillation, and not heeding others advise)
4. The weel popped off.
(chalk it up to the installer again)
5. The muffler fell off, twice, and when i was fixing it it burnt my arm
(think? Improper instillation, they don't just "fall" off.)
6. Gas leaked all over my garage when i was trying to fix it.
(what leaked? a defective part or not paying attention to what you were doing.)
7. You really cant turn off the gas, so it floods the carb, and is very hard to start up in the morning.
(here we go...a defective part. just because it's new doesn't mean it's worth a da*n)
8. You get oil all over your hand, cloths, and houce when you fix it, because all the seals suck and it gets all over the engine, and all over your bike.
(I'll agree on the gaskets here. How many vehicles can you work on without getting dirty...some..not many...sorry you sound like a wimp, that's why they make Go-Jo (hand cleaner) and a washing machine for)
9. My bike broke down on me almost every time I rode it.
(most likely from ALL of above)
10. these are not a cheaper form of transportation, they break down, and cost alot to fix. A scooter is alot better.
(I'll disagree, they are a CHEAP form of transportation, don't cost much to repair. I can build 3 of these for what I pay for my truck insurance alone.)
