My friend Patric both both mini bikes to see which one he likes the best off road. We took both of the up my mountain and he had a good work out with both bikes.
They are a BT200X and a CT200U-EX. The latter seemed to do very well on the steeper climbs and loose rocks. He did notice there was a banging in the front end. I though maybe the forks were bottoming out, they were not.
What we noticed was the front fork head was fee to move over 1/2 inch up/down. This does not look right to me. I would thing this should be solid only allowed the smallest of play by free to turn right/left.
I can make him some spacers that will prevent movement and protect the two dissimilar metals.
What do you say?
