    I never had my DF topped out but have seen 75MPH indicated which is probably 68 or so real MPH after changing the sprockets from 13/45 to 13/33 and changing the high speed jet from a 88 to a 100.

    These are 229cc push rod engined bikes so don't expect too high a top speed. Maybe 70MPH is the max and you don't want to stay there for long. Not an interstate bike. If you want higher speed then you need more motor.

    So still no MSO today... So I called countyimports to bitch at them and this is the response I get.
    We don't know why we don't have the MSO yet we applied for it on the 30th, I said this is unbelievable I order the bike on 3/3/11 and it doesn't show up for over 3 weeks and now a week later you don't know why don don't have my MSO!!??!! Se then said shell look into it and call me back.
    15 mins later I get the call back and she tells me she got a hold of the manufacture again and should have the MSO tomorrow because they will overnight it to her...
    Se then tell me I should have it by fri-sat. If I don't have this MSO by Monday I'm going to tell them to come pick this bike up and I will just run over to NJ and pick up the heist because I'm not gonna play this game with them for another month. Also on a side note do not let any water touch your bike!!!!
    I have a cover on the bike and being out in the rain for 2 days and the water splashing back up onto the wheels from the ground all the spokes are already rusting...
    They really use some shitty metallurgy so the only way to fix it is get some turtle wax chrome polish that has the wax in it to protect it from further damage.

    Trouble, but he worked it out. Hopefully you will too.

    Then I should have just went through scooterdepot in the first place lol
    The only reason I went through countyimports is because someone posted on chinariders they they had a good experience with them, I on the other hand am not =(
    I also heard horror stories about scooterdepot, and when I actually google countyimports review it gets BAD reviews and I can see why. I just believe all these Co.'s are exactly the same (shit) with scootedepot being the ring leader importing all these bikes into the states.

    Well look at it this way you called the DMV and they said that they would tag it so there's a plus, lets just hope that you get there and they do

    Took a ride out to Sanibel island to do a little work on our cottage there. Such a beautiful day that I had to take the bobber.
