You can get cags for $100 - 350.00 on ebay i wouldn't pay any more .
1.When you get the bike u need to change the pulg , grade bolts all over, fuel line add a flitter.

2.When learn to ride first go get your self a fat boy pipe, 14/14 rep a fiber glass reeds.

Or you could just check it over straight out of the box and ride it till it dies or you have the throttel pegged then do all the mods but remmeber , do one mod at a time because its easier to fault fine
welcome to the sport.....

hey beans....
do beans make you fart... they do for me... anyway...
im gonna have to agree with ya beans
buy a watercooled bike... so much more fun and double the power..
then after a while mabee buy a aircooled to muck around on (mechanical wise)
but once you ride a water cooled you most proberly wont go back to a aircooled...

cheers..

the samuir bikes are fine but no where nere as a good as a w/c (water cooled)..
there are diffrent types of w/c
blata b1 rep or chinese name is mta or somthing along thoses lines..from what ive herd are ok but fall apart and need slight mods to get up to speed.any where from$350 to $600 but ozminimoto has a lot of spares for them and the geniun parts fit them too. only get the sq modle

polini 911 dream bike chinese name is taipan zx1 or 911 rep are good but need some $$$ spent to get them moving and have weak frames.. around the $700 from zuma or contack maylands ive herd they handle good and again no problem fiting the euro stuff


banshee (grc gp rep) is good need a little bit heaiver but strongs frame good bike the clutch and carbie arnt the grastest and has a taperd crank sharft so changing clucth to euro means u need to get a special zocchie one or u just put the new clutch shoes on you old backing plate .regared as one of china best bikes.$500-$700

z1 havent herd much but wat i have herd it is a bit unrelible but have great power (than again all chinese bikes have their problems) bot sure on thier price

im sure some one elese will add their thorts
what ive told you is only what ive read and herd and is my own opinion...
go banshee woo
