How to know if your bike is reliable

Please add.

1. Pull start always engages and retracts properly
2. Throttle returns freely
3. Brakes lock up when squeezed hard
4. There is minimal smoke
5. There is no oil/carbon escaping from the joins on the exhaust

Wouldn't say that comes under reliability... Because if the sucker doesn't have a spark plug she ain't going to start! haha

for reliability you need a NGK spark plug, good coil, make sure the space between your flywheel and coil is exactly a business card apart. And your carby need to be set up right.
