Ditto....

This bike is definately made for the smaller adults or teenagers. It does need a smaller rear sprocket, the one on it now is a 46 tooth, but with a 16in wheel, so in comparison it's like my kazuma when I first got it with a 56 tooth, if that makes any since. It has plenty of power, I think the motor is rated at 10hp. I haven't ridden it much, probably gonna resale it if my wife doesn't ride it. It will do 45-50 comfortably, haven't wound it out since it's still in the break-in period. I did post a couple of pics in my gallery album yesterday. I felt it was a pretty good deal for $663 shipped, I've seen them elsewhere on the net going for over $800. assembly was very easy, handelbars, front wheel and mirrors. After getting the carb adjusted and going over some key nuts and bolts it took about an hour and 1/2.

Push rod engine? I'm assuming it would be.

I guess that would be a 19" front then?

Also, the seat looks to be more cushion than the one on the 200's.

You better tell your wife to ride it so we can get an honest woman's opinion. You know that's what I'll get if I got one for my girl.

I would say the seat is about equal, it does come off easily to access the tool kit. Front wheel is 18in and the engine is OHV(pushrod) design.

fatboy250 · 03-12-2007, 10:48 AM

Can you tell me what the stamp is on the carb? PZ27 perhaps??

Also, was the MSO marked motorcycle?

Jason

bfe71730 · 03-17-2007, 10:50 AM

yes, the carb is stamped pz27, it's the same carb I bought off ebay and installed on a 200s atv. there isn't anything filled out on the MSO except for the vin # and model #. I dunno what is instore for me when I go to get a title for it.

mule3010 · 03-19-2007, 06:07 PM

In KY. they are as easy to title as any GY. I have sold several and the folks who decided to title em haven't had any problems. I have one in the garage that I may send down to the shop and sell. I brought it home thinking my wife would ride it.(no such intrest as yet)

I bought this one for my wife, but after hitting that damm dog last week she don't want anything to do with it. I even ordered a smaller rear sprocket to boost the topend. I'll post the results in another month or so after my ribs and collarbone heal up.

go figure.. maybe it was a sign.. but you can always tell her "you only live once.."

that one seems to make people want to try new things...

fatboy250 · 05-08-2007, 11:09 AM

bfe71730, You still recovering?

Jason

bfe71730 · 05-08-2007, 08:23 PM

I'm about fully recovered, left arm is still a little weak, but have got full movement. I've been busy catching up on stuff around the house from the past month being disabled. I've got a smaller sprocket to put on the 150 and a front tube to install on my 200, the original one went flat after the valve stem came off the tube, can't complain too much, it did go 3000 miles on the cheap rubber.

fatboy250 · 05-09-2007, 10:26 AM

I'm on the verge of getting a DB-03 for my girlfriend. Any passing thoughts on the subject. I would likely get the smaller sprocket as you suggested. What did you end up getting? I would think a 38-40 tooth sprocket would make this more of a daily driver at speed.

Also, have you had any other major problems with yours? You know, besides the dog??

Jason

mule3010 · 05-09-2007, 07:05 PM

Jason, I think they are great bikes overall. Old but reliable tech. I have heard they won't be produced anymore. How true that is I don't know. For what they are though they are pretty good. If you were closer I'd give a deal on one gathering dust in the garage.

pedez2000 · 05-09-2007, 10:39 PM

you did good on price but im pretty sure that bike has the rotary tranny. which if you carefully you'll still sift from 4 to 1 and thats bad.

good luck im a dealer if you need parts at a good price shipped and i take paypal. lol

have fun. tell me how everythings going so far.

John22j · 05-10-2007, 12:30 AM

The little pitbike I bought has a rotary tranny --- all down - n-1-2-3-4-n-1-2-3-4.... over and over. (or up n-4-3-2-1-etc) So you don't go from 4th to 1st, you hit nuetral and know all you have to do is pull back up on it and you're back in 4th.

I was worried about it at first, but it's really not that bad - and I think it's very easy to get used to.
