out of the 4 bikes,i like the first one the best.So would be great leaving some feedback on each bike.If theres anyone out there that is selling something similar to those bikes let me know.or you guys can recommend other bikes my budget is around $1000
 
Hi Xtasy
We have 140cc bikes around the price you are looking at.Bike Sales
Check out our website & Email or phone us we will look after you !!

Cheers Brian


thanks,but the only problem is that you guys are in SA and im in NSW and your gonna probably say we can ship it out to you etc etc but in the end im looking at another $150 for delivery and thats now over budget.Im not saying theres anything wrong with your bikes or your shop but i could get the same stuff you have for the around the same price but their shop is down the road from me :)
 
hey what you guys think of the difference between a lifan 125cc air cooled compared to a lifan 140cc oil cooled how big is this difference? is it worth going the extra mile for the oil cooled 140cc?
 
man that thumpstar in the trading post looks sweet ;) id stick away from ebay.. not saying there **** and if you look after your bike and arnt too hard on them then thats a good way 2 go but im sure your after abit more performance and something abit more long lasting

you seem to know how to ride and spose and ebay job is just a learner.. well it was for me

at the end of the day i spose the minority of the bike come form the smae place but just getting a good brand and that tradin post one looks good
 
yeah i called the shop up today and they told me something i didnt wanna hear !!! they said they are sold out of those bikes !!! but he did say that he would have them in again at the end of this month which is ok.

lol the 1st one from the trading post is an ebay bike lol... not a GENUINE thumpstar...it is the same as the pitpros and dhz bikes it just has a sticker kit lol....
 
yeh id wait out for one of those man =P a good bikes worth the wait =)

yeah most likely i will wait for it,and it would be easy to get just 5min drive down the road :D and good price too !! $950 without the sticker kit !
 
ok after seeing the new MSO i want it !!

what you reckon is better the new MSO 140s or the thumpsta in the trading post?
 
hmmm well there is a quite few diferences id go mso beta bike higher quality parts.:D:D:Dhigher quality bike altogether

i got a thumpstar genuine with a 140cc lifan engine and i mite in the near future sell it and get a crf50 as there somegood prices around.maybe you should think about a crf50
but up to you.good luck

there are BIG differences between the two!
The biggest difference is the suspension!
(1)REAR= no brand (trading post) vs DNM (MSO 140S) which produce an even better suspension than fastace!
(2)Forks= Non adjustable (trading post) vs fully adjustable dampning and rebound these forks have alse been rated as good as the fast ace as-02's...
(3)The you have the tyres...
****** no brand tyres (trader) vs Kenda front and rear (100 for the set)
(4)then theres the exhaust, ive heard the d-shape mufflers restrict the air flow heavily compared to the MSO 140S
(5) then theres the look of the thing, the MSO look WAAAAY better IMO
So theres five differences between the two and i sure know what bike id go for..your paying an extra $150 but your getting like twice that back with the quality of the different parts.
and dont forget MSO are the best people to do with and IMO, THE ****!

mso has a new range of bike! 140cc similar to pitpro and are located an hour out of sydney!

If you have the budget go the MSO for sure. It craps all over anything in your shortlist IMO.
