I would like to know what kind of life to expect out of a non race play ridden rookie shifting 125 typhoon stock motor. 1 day? 1 year? More?

It varies... Ours last for over a year. Some like leager-n-ky
were alot less. I've read where they went less than a month.

We had three of them, and they were fine untill the boys started jumping bigger jumps, I dont know if they were landing with the gas on, or off, but it seems as if there was some backlash on the centrifugal clutch (mounted on the crank), as far as a backyard, trails, dunes etc... The bike is awesome, but like ANY bike out there, if you race it, your gonna have to modify it.

The Tumbleweed Speedway TT in the flat field behind the house and at the dunes only. I just can't buy it then have it break within the first 3 months.
I will stay off of it if I have to.lol

Keep sharing. Anyone else have one? I would like to hear how it went for everyone.
Thanks
