Hello from NYC
Well I am a new Kinroad owner. My brother owned the vehicle for 10 years and only road it for a grand total of 225 miles. It has a rev limter so he stopped riding it. This vehicle has sat for all these years until this summer I decided to put it together.
I havent road a bike for 20 years so its a good introductory bike. its a 2000 Kinroad Xt 200 Gy. ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Welcome to the forum.
![]() I only rode a bike once in Manhattan. A 750 Nighthawk. The experience was, shall I say, intense. :wink:

Welcome!
![]() Search eBay using generic terms such as "dirt bike brake pads." Most of these Chinese bikes usually employ the same front brake calipers, et cetera. ![]() Spud ![]()

I have ridden in many cities. Manhattan was the most difficult, Miami was the most dangerous, and San Francisco was the most fun.

Yeah Manhattan can be dangerous. I was riding down there today in the village. Brooklyn is even worse.
I just received a new Killswitch but it doesnt work but the ignition does. My fuse is blowing while I am riding which is terrible. I have no idea why its doing this..... |
