    Anyone here ever deal with Ridernomics? I ordered some Daytona engine parts for my Ohvale over 3months ago. They said it would take about 3 months for the parts to get into the US but now they won't respond to emails and the phone number just has a busy signal.

    I've never heard of them. Just curious: what made you opt for them?

    Ohvale usa has been the go-to. https://ohvaleusa.com/

    There are 1-2 other ohvale distributors in the country. And depending on the part you seek, there are other minimoto vendors sites.

    They finally got back to me. DmanSlam, I went to them because they are a dealer for Daytona who makes the engine in the GP2 190 and they have some parts that Ohvale USA doesn't list. Most people seem to be just getting a new engine when the manual says it's time for a top end but I want to do the top end.

    I've got a stock top end and cylinder with extremely low hours of interested. I did a 212 swap.

    That's what I'm doing too. Did it give you more torque? Did you use the stock carb or bump up to a 33mm?

    Definitely more tq, also seems to be a hell of a lot more compression to kick start lol

    Carb went with nibbi 28 or 30mm I think

    I better start some leg workouts. I ordered the high compression 212 piston.

    zx250r did you do anything to the cylinder head on your 212 swap? Seems like the squish band would be in the wrong place with the bigger piston.

    Found another good source of Daytona engine parts. Motorkit in Belgium is great. Parts showed up quick.
