ok so a few weeks back a sold my moped being 17 i was looking for something with more of a real bike feel maybie a 125?
and i came across a little shineing star a kinroad xt50py
(yes its chiniese) by the sounds of the ad it needed a bit off work new throttle cable new rear brake rod new clutch lever ect...


soo i went and paid the man his £230 and got my dads friend to drive it back in his van and when i got it home i gave it a good clean and the proseded to take off the pannelsupon first inspection this is what i found:
battery: flat
indicators: staying constant and not flashing
sidelight: not working
throttle cable:missing
cluth lever: wrong 1 for the bike and therefore being lose
tial light bulb: blown
rear brake: drum cover not fitted properly and push rod missing
rear axel:bent
gear lever: nont clicking into gears
engine sprocket cover: missing

and thats about it realy lol
so far what i have done is replaced the throttle cable and that works well now left bike running for half an hour to give the battery some life
ajusted the clutch cable replaced the sidelight bulb however it still does not work possible due tho the tail light beeing blown?
ajusted the branch connection that connects the gear leaver to the engine so it can move enough to change the gears addeed fresh fuel and removed the rear wheel to sort out the drum cover under witch i found a rouge spacer?
wd40'ed the chain and sprockets and thats about it so the things i need help from you wonderful people are the sidlight wich dosent work possibly due to flat battery or blown tail bulb?
and the indicators staing constant insted of flashing any ideas people ill keep you posted as i find new things below are some photos
