Spent so much money buying parts for the DBXL, it cut into my engine fund. I was told this was a great engine, for the price I figured I'll give it a try. Should have it Friday, let you guys know how I make out.

I've seen one in action and it screamed,the only problem was that all 4 head bolts backed out after 2 tanks,we re-tightened them back up and all seemed fine afterwards

are you getting the stuffed crank version?

That number is most likely with a pipe. Take a couple off that if using a can muffler.

Are all engine bhps measured with a pipe? or a can? because that can be really disappointing. this is a marketing strategy to attract more customers. and I'm furious now

What about the esp 30.5cc that i'm going to install. They said 4bhp. But With a pipe? Or a stock can ??

because if it's via a can, the tuned pipe alone adds 33-40% more power, and with the lightened flywheel, clutch, new carb and filter, I believe I can reach 7bhp

Can somebody that has one of these engines, let me know if it really matters which 2 cycle oil that I use during break-in. I know not synthetic, but does the brand really matter. The guy said I should use the brand in pic to follow. Can some one let me know.

Thats the oil I use, breaking and let it rip.

I always use synthetic. I don't think it matters.

Any 2 stroke oil does the job. I use Motul
