06 zongshen speedometer/odometer problem
I am about to begin searching threads for info on this, but I thought that I would go ahead and ask for help w/ my zong issue
So I'm cruising down the road and the zong is about to roll over to 1000miles. I glance down at the 999 and smile. I look down a mile or two later and it is still at 999. upon further review i see that the speedometer is reading 0. I pulled over and noticed that area that attaches the cable was loose. I tightened it and rode home. I just unscrewed it and there is a piece approx 1'' long that is loose going down into the wheel area. has the cable just broken or should this be in 2 pieces. I know that I am showing my true colors as a motorcycle dummy here, but oh well. If the cable needs to be replaced, does anyone know if that part interchanges w/ the tw200? (I am also selling it if anyone is interested in the dallas area...$750) http://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/mcy/1960063258.html Thanks for any help |

I'm still waiting to verify I'm "legit." As soon as Zongshen America responds to my first order, I will promptly update my signature. I don't consider anything official until I can actually deliver some goods! Spud

I just completed my annual trip of riding my Zong to Salt Lake City; this excursion totaled a little over 500 miles. During this trip I also test rode the Pitster Pro LXT400, and the TMEC 200 motorcycles. I will soon post a ride report, and my impressions on those two motorcycles, in the appropriate forums. In case you are wondering, yes, I did take lots of photographs! Spud

The zong sold today :? . I'm delivering it to the buyer this weekend. Sad to see it go. I let the buyer know about the greatness that is chinariders.net. This was truly a great resource for info/maintenence/etc.
