Hi. I´ve had this since 1997 to now, It isn´t much to look at, plastic is UVed to death. However it´s motor is sooo strong and never been rebuilt bottom nor top! , starts 1st kick almost every time. 5 gears though, contrairy to specs on this site. It does about 120kmph without pushing too hard in top gear. It comes stock with a 62 tooth sproket, I went down to a 46 in 2000, and wow what a difference, better speed and longer on the pipe, also first gear actually moves!. Great bike!, awesome trail/bush bike. I wouldn´t recommend much motorcross style jumping with this ride, better for tack courses, hills and olf logging roads.
