hey i just baught a great express from ebay 400$
it runs great... i get up to 27-30 mph
it didnt have any gass in it when i bought it
i filled it up and it started great but it smoked bad for a block or two but i figure that was from it being on its side for an hour long drive
after the first night i had it i noticed (in the morn) that there was a small puddle under the engine
smelled like gass
that day i took it to work and when i got out of work (5 hrs later) it was out of gass
so today (the 3rd day i have had it) i turned the gass nob under the seat to the off position...
was this my gass leak prob?
also i am a new to the whole bike/ moped scene
i have herd alot about running lean, adjusting the carburator, and other adjustments that people should look into
what should i do and or check on to see if my moped is in good setting and condition?
also i want to look into suping up my moped
what websites are there?
and i herd some talk about getting parts from honda...
does honda still make parts for my express and where can i find a catolog and or website?
i live in manhattan ks if that helps any
i dont want to spend alot of money on it buy i want to be able to get parts quick if i need em
thanx a ton for all the help!
