Great job and it looks like a pretty good bike for the price.
Please let us know how it holds up over time.

it is a very decent bike for the price! i rode it most of the day yesterday and it was so much fun. i stopped in to several shops to look at gear for my dad and immediately drew crowds around it. everybody seems to think its made by or related to KTM, they were quite suprised it is chinese and were really impressed by the price even more impressed that it is a suzuki motor. one kid immediately jumped online to read up on it, he said we wants to buy one to stunt it  [roll] but I guess it would be the right bike/price for that.

anyway, i ended up ordering a moose air filter and a bigger main jet. i found out what full exhaust system bolts right up and will buy off ebay. hopefully that will open a lot of HP. i'll give the review when those go in.

so far I highly recommend the bike.
