    I would do both and get an average. Then add just a ouch more. Some fluid gets trapped in the bottom of the fork slider under the dampener rod.

    my bike has had a couple carb issues and i am considering replacing it.I have cleaned it like twice, but it sputters every so often.
    that's the carb but sure you cleaned it properly...
    I only say this for it's likely dirty or a leak.
    find some fine wire and stick it through the jets. and look else where for a problem like exhaust seal or intake manifold leak.. not too many issues can't be solved rather than replaced.

    that said this new rebuild kit has everything​.

    the jets are pretty close if ur not picky.

    without a slide, cheaper
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/291807976434, but no description of jets.

    or if u insist the whole thing cheaper than you posted.
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/322477941584

    if u don't want accelerator pump, which I find off little use,
    then u can have it for 16.99 all in.

    that said I'd send u mine for the cost of shipping... Im running a D slide type carb now...

    They are pretty much the same bike. IIRC, Dong Fang make them both. The hiest just gets a little more detail paid to it. I'm not sure what you mean by the fork racks. There is, or was, a Heist thread on here. You'll have to try a search for it.

    People have been having some luck with PSM. http://www.powersportsmax.com/index.php/cPath/482_483

    There is a thread on www.chinariders.net about good and bad drop shippers. There are no true dealers in the US. Only some that set up and sale as a retailer.

    I really wish someone would wake up and start selling replacement engines for these bikes. My new motor still runs fine, but it was not easy to come by.I got lucky locating it. If they sell the bike, they should offer parts as well... including engines. Just saying.

    what u really want is a 400cc - 500cc with a cg footprint I wish someone would wake up and produce that.
    you can actually find the cg250 just not always if ever in Black.
    I've replaced the head twice and cylinder once, both times I had to do the paint.
