  4. There are simple tests to identify what sort of plastic you are dealing with. I have it in a book but it should be findable online somewhere.. Google "identifying plastic types" perhaps.

  5. If the Better end E-ATV's are design off of the principal of EV cars? They will be come cheaper and less robust in build quality and to software dependent. Plus heavier. Factor in (Real World) Not estimated Battery range. Voltage Type, Charging, Ambient Temperature & Weather will determine your real battery range and life. Factor in the planned Obsolesce of the product (ICE or EV) Limited ability to repair major components, limited parts, Battery replacement costs exceed value of product. Or flat out replacement with new machine. This is what my industry has been faced with in last 5yrs (Outdoor Power Equipment Sector) With the Electric's Some Good, & Some Not so good. I can't imagine the E-ATV doing the same work as ICE without serious repercussions. Until battery Technology becomes Reliable, safe, & efficient, affordable. It still has a ways to go yet. It's come along ways since its inception 100yrs ago. If they only had todays tech back then? Thats where were at now.

  6. Yup, what Gw says, get the engine free and test for compression. If it has no compression then pull the head and cylinder off and check the crank bearings by moving the rod sideways and then pressing down hard on the rod and rocking it on the bearing as you slowly turn the crank. You are checking for any rough spots on the crank. If the crank seems ok, get on the end of the crank shaft and try lifting and moving it down looking for play in the main bearings. If the crank and rod seem ok, then consider fitting a piston and/or rings and/or new cylinder. When you are lifting the cylinder, make sure the piston is at the top and then only lift the cylinder as little as possible that will allow you to wrap a rag around the rod and into the crankcase hole.. to stop and broken ring falling into the crankcase. Compared to all that, the electrical issues should be minor..

  7. Where i ride: I ride everything from woods to gravel pits, winter out on the lakes, and down dirt roads.. The reason I ride: The reason i ride is for the Rush, and knowing that every ride is going to be the same there is always something new and exciting. It Also gives me something to do besides sitting home or running around the streets in town getting involved with drugs like some kids do when there is not much else they can do.
