Thanks guys. I did say that I wasn't going to pay based on misrepresentation of product and that that is illegal. I'll write back saying that I've seeked legal advice and that they have stated that Atomik is breaking the law. ohh.... just noticed a Pit Pro 125cc Daytona engine for $1599 ...

Guys, I have spoken to Atomik and they reckon the relisting fee is $50. Should I tell them to jump?

Guys, there is a 140cc Nitrous or a DHZ 140cc both for sale. The Nitrous will be about $550 and the DHZ $900 or so ... which one is the go?

Thanks. I've just emailled them explaining that I want to cancel the transaction, I said it wasn't a Thumpstar as I expected ... I'll see what they say. So ... is the 140cc Nitrous ok to get? Arrghhh ... this is frustrating but I want to get something useful. What upgrades etc should I...

Hey mate ... how do you propose I do this. I haven't paid any money yet. Where would I write "item not as described" ... should I email them? What should I say was not as described?? Ta

Thanks guys .... so, may I ask a silly question. What's the definition of a pit bike? I see that you mention "let alone pit bikes" ... are they harder to learn etc?

So don't buy the Atomik? I think it costs $100 if you fail to pay.

Guys, out of interest how much is the DHZ or Pit Pro bikes worth? I'm looking to spend around $1k on a bike for a beginner.

Thanks guys ... all your advice is appreciated. Is there any specific maintenance routine you guys follow after a ride? Re: the air filter .... what would I be looking for re: uni filter? Will it fit on the bike without alterations?

Thanks mate ... is there any specific type? Do I just look for Motul mineral based oil? Are they all the same? As you can tell I've got no idea. lol

Thanks again ... with the filter ... should I buy one now before the bike arrives? What should I ask for at the shop? Remember, I've never done this before.

Guys, what type of oil do you recommend I put in? I've read that the oil the bike is supplied with is only for transporting the bike. Thanks for the assistance .... or do you all think I should default on this bike and buy something better? Remember though that I'm only a learner and don't have...

Hey guys ..... thanks for the replies. To be brutally honest I have NEVER ridden before, it will be the first time when I get the back together and running so I won't be doing anything tricky on the bike. I've bought it to learn the basics of riding and if I get hooked I'll buy a better quality...

Hi guys, I've just bought my first ever bike, an Atomik Moto X 125cc Pit Dirk Bike Thumpstar. I've been reading a little about them and understand they are a cheap bike and as such I don't expect much, to be honest it's the first bike I'll ever ride when it turns up. I've done a little more...
