yeah many people have had unsuccessful ones as well.....read my email and you'll see what you can do. There are always options that are both negative, but one is better than the other.

Re: Custom 140cc x19

I'd love to go on with the setup..
I just don't want to risk wiring that much money
And not getting anything back, for any reason.
I think you would understand if you'd be in my shoes.

It doesn't matter what security you have, If the bike arrives damaged or not what he was expecting. He is screwed, He will have to send the whole bike back to get a full refund through paypal....

LOL, you don't think the 140cc set up is going to be fast? you have to be kidding...and with the set up I mentioned before, ill fly and you'll spend only around 750 bucks...Then if you want to add a BBK I think its a 154cc Big Bore kit if im not mistaking...It will be about $185. So that's about $900 bucks for a amazingly fast bike...Itll most likely go close if not more than 100mph....It will be faster than the 160cc set up

Why pay the 300+ dollar Labor fee then you can do it yourself cheap...

yeah 900 bucks and a $#!t load of labor. Plus with the 140cc you will not "fly" you'll go 70ish, There are many more factors to consider before going over 60. tires, tunning, gearing, stability, etc.

What if the bike arrives looking like a POS, and not how he wants it...

Nope every little mod you add you need to retune/rejet the carb. And to install the stuff properly (so they dont fall off) you'll need the right equipment and it'll take time.

File a claim with paypal they'll take a couple days to investigate then make a decision. Hence, the policy states that the buyer is always more trusted and supported when the seller dosent have enough evidence.

Re: Custom 140cc x19

It would be better getting the parts installed..And bring the bike to a local motorcycle shop...The parts are a piece of cake to install(maybe not to Frsh)....

They will tune the carb for like 30bucks...And that's why I included the jetting kit..

The shipping company also takes photos of packages 100lbs and high, paypal cantacts them ask for the pics if they dont match what i told you im selling you they immediatly issue you a refund. Also as soon as you file the claim my account access is limited and the money is reserved.

sure the teacher can help you with installing the carb and engine, but none of the harder stuff.....also how convenient would it really be? i doubt hes going to come to your house every day....
