    New 212cc won't fire

    Brand new motor, but it sat in the box for a while so I can't take it back. finally put it on the minibike and get zero spark. is there a way to bypass all the switches to see if one is bad? Most likely dumbass reason for it to not start? (yes I am saying I may be a dumbass)

    Mike Bike issues

    I am tearing down my 69 Sensations Mike Bike and hit some snags. The bearings in the rear wheel practically fell out. I can not get the front wheel ones out. It is at the point I am afraid I will break the wheel pounding on it. What works? Heat? Also, the bolt that attaches the Fork to...
