This Knock-off any good?

I was looking at getting this knock off, yes i no it aint as good as a pitster or a real honda, but for the price do you think its any good? It looks to be a pretty good ebay bike to me...

I would recomend spending a few extra bucks and get a better one. By the time you get that bike, spend money to fix it after it breaks, you could have a nice pitster, or thumpstar, or sdg.

i guess it looks ok for an ebay bike(meaning i have seen much worse).....but its VERY hard to get into 50's if you cant really afford even a decent knock-off

I think it looks pretty sweet! From what I hear, the thing you might have to worry about would be the motor, because if you are beatin on it the knock off gears seem to get all messed up. I was looking at this bike myself~

because it has a lifan engine, I would just swap out the frame and swingarm for five0 (much lower center of gravity) anyways if you do get it-let us know how it works out.
