    another crazy question...in the pics online I notice they all have a clutch hand lever and a brake hand lever...the one I got only has the one on the right(brake)...is it missing the clutch, or is that something you guys added by way of motor swap or something?

    Yes added later. The ZB comes stock with the auto clutch. No clutch lever.

    cool thanx...now another question....
    as you can see in pics, I opened her up....maybe not the smartest thing, but I am very handy and with a book can do anything...so

    as you see from pick #1...all looks clean(this area supposed to have gas right?) then pick #2, the kick start in standby position. Pic #3 Kick rotated 180 degrees, nothing internal moved until this point, before this just the spindle moving and the spring twisting, is this the way it's supposed to be, or is something wrong in there?

    No gas as in gasket? The kickstarter shaft works off the transmissions first gear to start the bike.

    Damnit.... If DE wasn't 1300 miles away I'd take it off of your hands. Used to live in Dewey Beach (and Rehoboth for about 4 months). You can do an aftermarket engine swap pretty cheap on these, ebay has replacement full kits for a 125cc shipped to your door for $300.
