could be a duff battery too, check connections as DDT says

no way man, that's cool

it became tedious setting it up. the engine is like a hair-dryer, useful but not interesting. cycle parts are just panels that you screw together on a tiddly frame. everything's plastic

I did a scoot and enjoyed getting to grips with the CVT and its foibles. wouldn't do one again though been there done that sort of thing.Having said that, they are quite handy for nipping to the shops. Mike and I tried to blag the Tyco paddock bikes for a tootal along but got knocked back.
