If My bike has been sitting for 2 years with a cracked cylinder barrel,

What are the chances the engine is fucked??

What do you think will need to be replaced? the brakes? engine?

Whats is your opinion guys?

it will be fine i guess..

brakes may need serviced.
oil the chain ?
change gearbox oil ?
as for the top end i dunno how the barrel could crack, but aftermarket 50cc kits go on ebay pretty cheap.

i spoke to a guy from mdl spares said he had a barrel for £20 but didnt ever write back. there is new barrels on ebay but not second hand ones :rolleyes:

The guy that starts to sell second hand barrels and engine parts will earn a lil fortune i think.

Keep your eyes open if you can guys... will put down 25£ to the person that can offer a decent second hand barrel

lol don't buy second hand pistons or barrels, you might as well buy some second hand brake pads.
