Count what's on your bike. The easiest way is to count the plates between the links, and multiply by two.

One is for your battery, and one is for the non existent tool kit.

Not making sense. The one that looks like a Y is for the tool kit, but these 2 are about 1.5" long. Long enough to wrap around your finger only. Maybe spares for the cables coming off the handlebars ?

I never had anything like that with my bike.

alright so I got the KPM and been keeping it between first, and third gear around the block while i wait for registration... day 3 im noticing a squeaking noise coming from the front wheel area of the bike... I'm thinking it has something to do with the breaks but im as qualified as a bucket of bolts. Once i get it registered im going to take it to the local bike shop for an inspection. should i just wait, or anybody else have this issue?

The oil is completely up to whatever your preference is. I use Castrol in all my vehicles, except my Yamaha.

My suggestion is that you leave the OEM headlight (The looks of it is likely one of the reasons why you bought the bike in the first place) and simply add external LED driving lights. The headlight itself is not a normal bucket type that's interchangeable.

Just a random auxiliary light test

Did you grease the axle when you installed the front wheel? What torque did you use to install the front wheel? Does the wheel spin freely when you spin it? Does the noise change or stop when you hit the front brake?

I bought the bike from Powersportsmax all that i needed to put on were the handlebars. bike runs great except for the squeaking which happens in all gears. when i press the brakes it stops...

Falkon45 · 07-15-2022, 05:50 PM

Ahh, ok. The brake bad is dragging

Got mine from Powersportsmax. at around 600 miles the top bolt holding my front brake caliper on come out. dang near locked the front wheel. was extremely lucky i was going slow at the time. I highly suggest going over every bolt after a couple hundred miles and adding locktite where necc.
