Anyone had any experience?

http://minibikeparts.co.uk/Upower-14...ke-engine.html

Been thinking of upgrading for a bigger/better engine than the standard gen 3 yx 140. Was thinking of going for a zong 155 then I came across the one above. Just wondering has anyone had any experience? Does the price seem good? and roughly how much would I get for my yx 140 engine, with copy mikuni inc?(has only had maybe 5 hours use)

Cheers

Yea Daytona is the way forward if you want a strong reliable engine with a hand full of power. My next engine will be jap klx 155 possibly

It's really just a new generation retaged yx150,so should be fine.
I've read good reports about that newer one.
Same way m2r,luckymx,piranha,demon,stomp and ultimately oor rebrand the casings when ordering.

Re: Anyone had any experience?

well Mini-MX is where I got my Lucky MX from a couple of weeks ago and I can vouch for him, (even though I am new) Daniel provides a very honest service. I wouldnt worry too much about buying from him, if you are unsure call him and he will answer all the questions you have in regards to the engine.
I've been involved in bikes/racing for the last 10 years and you can tell when someone is trying to pull wool over my eyes and MINI-MX certainly DON'T do that.
