Hello Guys and Gals.
Recently I got the wife very keen on this adventure biking thing. Problem is that she has never ridden a bike before. In my wisdom, I reckoned a light 125 would be a good start, and seeing that she will most likely take a tumble or two, it should not be too expensive. I was looking at the disposable bikes that they sell these days, and settled on a Hyosung, as Kawasaki brought them in once in a while, and they looked the best of the lot. I was also assured by Smith Power (their new distributors) that parts were readily available.
I bought one with a slight tappety noise, for a very good price, and opened up to have a look. I found that the exhaust rocker arm has worn on the cam side, and would need to be replaced.
Herewith the correspondence with the Hyosung agents: Please check the date on the first mail.
This is the last reply I got today. All I can say that you would be dealing with these guys at your own peril. (I see his caps lock got stuck as well)
HI
NO WE CANNOT LIKE I SAID IN LAST MAIL WE ONLY IMPORT NEW MOTORCYCLES AND PARTS WE SO NOT DO SECOUND HAND PARTS AT ALL.
YOU WOULD HAVE TO GO TO DEALERSHIPS. I HAVE ATTACHED OUT LIST SO YOU CAN ENQUIRE THERE.
SORRY I CANNOT HELP AND I WILL BE RECEIVING THE NEW PART SHORTLY.
