im looking more and more as i read that a zongshen is the starter bike to go with

just got my motorcycle license a few weeks ago... why do you need to remove the battery? should you just assume it was bad?... ive heard plenty on this topic about fuel filters extra line and replacement spark plugs...
also i got my license on a Honda Nighthawk, has anyone ridden one and how would it compare to the zongshen? (beside the obvious physical riding differences, im talking speed handling etc)

New Battery - may be bad? (somebody said something about charging the battery after you put the acid in?? - not sure but im assuming thats a new battery he's putting the acid into?) p.2 - 7th post
Replace Oil - peace of mind
External Fuel Filter - not sure on installation but i've heard will help
Spark Plugs - factory ones may not be adequate?

any idea on prices for all that?
the place i want to get it from is charging 96# for the MSO - highway robbery? then again im getting it alot cheaper than that dynasty place
oh yeah and xanthmo you commented on how you adjusted the clutch? ive never done so before so if you could go into some detail that would be awsome! thanks
