hello,
kinda new to drx's, so far it runs great when its running, it an 07 50cc now converted to a 70cc. when i first got it, it wouldn't even pull a small uphill if my boy stopped in the middle, had to get clutch adjusted at my expense to ride around the house. next wouldn't start, took back to dealer and they tell me my cylinder wall is scored, i agree not a great stock air filter system, this is when i upgraded to a 70cc, put a malossi kit on, what a difference, this was probably my fault not knowing to upgrade air filter first thing. i have been learning alot by reading this forum!! next exhaust pipe broke off about an inch down from where it connects to cylinder. now it has been at the dealer for 3+ weeks because my gears are stripped and the case cracked. dealer has told me he has never seen a drx case cracked, other atvs yes but not on of these. apparently they are having trouble getting one because they tell me drx doesn't carry this part number anymore because they thought the cases were the same as the 90's so this part number got discontinued. they told me a week or so ago one was coming next day meaning next week from tawain!! i am beginning to think i got a lemon. this thing is a big headache, but when she is running i enjoy seeing the smile on my son's face!! did i mention it is only 4 months old!! any suggestions please help, i am about ready to get him a ktm dirtbike
thanks
