picked up this runner today. standard 180, not mintbut well worth it as the bike has done f all mileage
really nice to drive and pulls really well. it feels shit slow top end though but maybe im used to a 4 stroke that makes there power further up the rev range
what do you think

i dunno the 180 seems to power wheelie but then you get on the open road its fucking shit. even a main road it feels slow. it revs all the way through the range though so maybe its just me

finally fitted new rollers and a belt to the runner. i now have a problem with the clutch like a broken spring as it moves by itself even on the lowest tickover lol
i really miss my 4 stroke man. ive put £17 in the 2 stroke since yesterday, yes i did say £17 i only just cost me that to modra and back
i want my baby back 
i have to admit the power wheelies are good and its now fitted with a 25mm carb so it goes much better
