All of the things I've done are tuning, adjustments, upgrades, and fixing flats, etc. Mine has a carburetor, no EFI, and mechanically it has been excellent. But some people have EFI gremlins or mechanical failures that they deal with on their own with some guidance or suggestions from these folks. You really need to be able to trailer (or drive it) it to a dealership in a pinch. Yes, you will find people having EFI problems, even on the KPX in threads on this site (you should know- full disclosure ). Rare perhaps, but we don't actually have numbers so it's unknown.

Yes, The the last batch of KPX had some idle and throttle hesitation issues. American Lifan is already on top of it and offer to reflashing the ECU's with new map for free to resolve the issue. Mine was one of the first batch to arrive and have had no issues.
