Venom Ghost Chopper 250

My new addition to the stable, I'm having a lot of fun modifying and riding this bike. So far, I have a little over 200 miles on it, and since I am pretty much finished adding all my accessories it's time to put some miles on it.

Looks great herbie! Same bike my brother bought a few months ago except his is red which as you know is faster. 😀

He actually sold it to a friend of mine that wanted a bike and fell in love with the Ghost. I really like the sound but the seat is a bit hard for my liking.

Thank you my KPR friend! Yes, red is absolutely the fastest color
I thought the same thing about the seat, but after riding it for almost 300 miles now, I find the seat pretty comfortable. I have a seat on my KP mini that feels really soft and comfortable but after a little while my butt starts to hurt. It's just the opposite on the Ghost, so far I have no complaints about the Ghost seat. Good to hear from you again!

Well I am at close to 500 miles now on the ghost and I’m liking this bike more all the time, especially since I have all the extra things on it that I like. Bike runs great and no problems at all.

Does this bike have tubeless tires? I'm an old guy, and can't fix a flat with tube type tires. Lots of thorns where I live. Thanks.

It doesn’t say in the manual that comes with the bike. Myself I usually adjust the valves before 100 miles but I like to tinker. I would say a good rule of thumb would be if the bike is running good from the start do your first valve lash check at 1k kilometers or 600 miles, then every 4k kilometers or 2500 miles thereafter.

Does anyone have a link for the spark plug for the Ghost. I had a link and now can't find it. Also what is the gap supposed to be. I always double check before I put a new one in.
Thanks

I know we already talked but just in case someone else wanted to know. The owners manual says spark plug gap should be 0.7-0.8mm or about .030 of an inch gap
