Hi, I haven't been on these forums for so long now, but I have been riding my proX 140 heaps, It is holding up good. anywho, My dad is thinking about getting my younger brother an Atomik Blitz, I have not heard much good about china bike engines above 125cc or 150cc... This is because...

Tom....i can't put a face to the name, but I'm pretty sure i would have seen him before, probably even spoken to him. Yeah, I'm pretty sure that river your talking about is the ovens river, i go swimming in it every day during the summer holidays, its awesome....it makes me feel depressed when i...

Sorry, what i meant was actually feeling the exhaust coming out of the muffler, the pipe coming from the engine head gets hot, but the exhaust fumes is pretty cool...This could be normal, i dunno, im just curious i guess.

After riding for the last two weeks on my grand perants farm, i noticed that the exhaust(when i feel it with my hand) Is cool, almost cold. It took 1 hour of hill climb style riding to make the exhaust feel warm. Is this normal?

I roll started my bike nearly every time i started it for the last two weeks (school holidays) I usually did it going down a hill, but even on flat ground i found the 3rd gear was the go (for a pit bike if thats what we are talking about, i cant remember now...) I just ran with the bike...

I'm no good at keeping a story short so this kind of drags on a fair bit....(all this riding was done with a fully broken in engine) 2 weeks ago I got a atomik pro X 140cc bike and now i have just returned from my grandparents farm and i thought a would say what i thought about the bike. I...

Nah, i in clipped the zip tie in the breather pipe, It could be the carby, but I am pretty sure it is coming from inside the crank case, on the left hand side... Well, the bike will be tested starting tomorrow, for 2 weeks on a hilly farm that my grandparents own, so we will know if it's ok...

The Rc car is run off a 11.1V Lithium Polymer battery... It's a pain in the ass sometimes though because it can be running great for a week or two, then the next time you run it something will break. So you fix the problem and go back outside, then something will break again..... at the moment...

DOH!, what i meant was whats the difference..... Anyway, i think its time to start spending some money!!! YAY I have just finished spending stacks on my Rc car, its a 1/18 scale electric off road car, converted to on road and is now able to cruise around a velodrome at around 80-90Kph with...

what are pro taper bars?

as the title states...What do you think? I'm asking plenty of questions because I'm leaving for Myrtleford on Monday, so i want to know what i should to before i go.....

I just went out and started the bike up again, getting it into neutral is easy now (now that i know how to do it) Its just 1 up from 1st gear and a tiny bit down, not a full click, and then its in neutral. I think i will go to buning's tomorrow and buy some steel bolts, i reckon any bolts...

This may be a stupid question, but i'll ask it anyway.... I have a new Atomik ProX140, it has only been idled for about 5 minutes, when its running, it sounds like there is a 'swooshing' sort of noise coming from inside the engine case. Is this normal? This is my first bike so I'm pretty...

Are there any upgrades that are necessary? Or what do you think are the best upgrades? Keep in mind that i don't want to spend BIG$$$, as i don't have BIG$$$ I have already changed the oil to a high quality oil, should i change the chain, fuel filter, or anything else? Thanks,

those high tensile steel bolts you talk about, are they the ones that i can get at, for example, bunnings? Or do i need to go somewhere specific?
