jincheng knight 50

[desperado]

Thinking about checking out this bike but it's 2 hour drive to go see it.
Is this bike is any good and are the parts hard to get?
2001 knight 50cc, 2200 miles and $150 is what he wants for it.
no battery or spark plug, so I can't see if it runs.

Why no plug? Bring one with you if the bike has a kickstart.

[desperado]

yeah, I can bring a plug.

If you don't mind that it is a chinese-made POS, and you don't mind pretty much throwing $150 away, then yeah, go for it!

that thing is AWESOME. pretty sure jincheng makes some good honda clone engines. they use them in a lot of pitbikes and such so parts are plentiful. you could probably swap in a lifan 140cc manual clutch engine in also. slap a cafe seat and clubman bars and you got yourself a neat little cafe racer!

I'd buy that Knight any day for $150. I just thought it was kind of odd that there was no spark plug or battery. If you bring a plug and the owner objects, then you'll obviously know something isn't right.
