Where to buy 'dead' non running not working motorcycles. Tips for Finding more.?

l_aspenwal

hey there.

I am currently working on (not started yet) a DIY electric motorcycle.

I need to know where to dead motorcycles though. By that i meen ones that wont run from engine/transmission problems.

I plan on yanking the gas motor out with the tranny and fuel tank and doing a conversion for electric. I here you can get them for only $500ish give or take after you part out the dead/spare gas motor stuff. Im getting a street/race/superbike style and need all the suspension and other stuff intact.

any tips for looking on the internet if i trouble looking locally.

Ezip HANDLEBAR adjustable STEM?

jetman22

I want to adjust my HANDLEBAR adjustable STEM on my Ezip curry electric bike.I want to raise the smaller piece. On one side the allen head came off with ease but the other side won't budge. I am afraid it might strip it. Any suggestions?

Answer
You should pay special attention to the owners manual.

There is a little yellow sticker surrounding that bolt that tells you NOT TO LOOSEN IT. That was your first error.

There is a bolt UNDER the stem, on that "smaller piece" that holds a wedge in place. Retighten the bolt you loosened to the correct torque (don't guess), then loosen the wedge bolt until the extension (that smaller piece) can be rotated. Align it as desired, then retighten.
