Sportbikes / Where to get parts

« on: August 06, 2009, 02:48:23 PM »

Got in a crash today and need some new parts. Was wondering if some of you more knowledgeable folks could help.

I need to find a new clutch pedal and clutch handle. Any clue on where to get one, either stock or one that should work, and how to install?

Also a cover for the left blinker as well.

Finally, a new windshield.

Any chance of finding something I could order online that would work or am I basically out of luck?

Alright, love the bike but the Side Mirrors are driving me a bit crazy. Does anyone have any suggestions on replacement mirrors of things to do to make them more useable? Thanks?

Sportbikes / Battery Question, need some help

« on: February 13, 2009, 07:30:09 PM »

Hey folks, been enjoying my Zongshen. Had the first warm day since back in November, 70 degree's, so finally got to pull it out of the friends garage I've had it in.

Bad thing is, the battery light was flickering. Not really surprising as it was flickering right before I put it in the garage.

I was wondering if I could get any advise or information on how to charge the battery. The two terminals are under the seat correct?

What Voltage is our battery? 12 volt?

Are we a negative ground system or a positive ground system?

I bought a small, outlet powered battery charger that is for 12 volt batteries but for whatever reason when I tried to put the clamps onto the terminals it indicated it wasn't charging. Kind of stumped here.

Any help would be appreciated. As a note, while the battery light is flashing the bike still runs fine atm.

Sportbikes / New Issue; engine shut off

« on: November 15, 2008, 10:54:12 AM »

Alright, so I FINALLY have my license plate and was able to go on the road. I go to start it up, hit the choke, get it going. As I'm pulling out I stall out once. Not TOO uncommon for me at this part of things. However it doesn't want to start back up again, just kind of goes put put put put put.

So I switch to reserve, and it goes for a bit then off. Wonderful.

I go get gas, put it in, and boom, it goes.

Yet as I'm driving it around hte parking lot I start going up a small hill and it starts to put, put, put an then the engine cuts off. Damnit.

Again, I try to get it going, after a few minutes finally I get it started again and get to park it.

I have NO IDEA why this would be happening. I know its been raining at my home for days now. I had everything shut but could water have got inside somehow and caused this? I'm just at a loss.

Also, the little battery looking icon is blinking red at me. I'm guessing that means my battery isn't fully charged? How do you charge the batteries on these things? Can you hook it up to a car battery or gotta do something different?

Sportbikes / How hard to put together?

« on: September 26, 2008, 03:26:12 PM »

I was supposed to get my bike today, but unfortunately the delivery company couldn't find my street and instead of calling back to HQ like they were supposed to to get a mapquest for it they just skipped it. (GRRR)

Anyways, my dad is going to help me put it together but I've got a few general questions.

How difficult is the assembly and what all does it constitute? About how long does it take and does it take up a lot of space? I fear I won't be able to get this thing into my apartment based on the layout of things so I'm likely going to have to put it together actually outside in the parking lot. I'm just trying to get a handle of whats going to be needed from me and what I'll need his help on before it comes in on Monday
