Help with information

#1 Unread post by jtrent6415 »

Was hoping someone could help me out. My BIL was given an ecorider that we intend to use at the racetrack as a pit bike. This is the Diesel version and I think they quit making it around 2006. The problem is I have no owners manual or anything else. How do I go about finding parts, especially things like a fuel filter...or even just an owners manual?

Secondly, all of the wiring is just hanging outside the. It would be awesome if there is some kind of wiring diagram out there....wishful thinking...

Thanks

Jason

Hello Jason and welcome to the forum. I don't know anything about these bikes. A quick search found they are made in Scotland for hill farmers and forestry workers working in peat bogs ect. Extremely low ground pressure. less psi than a man on his own feet. Single cylinder diesel hatz engine, american torque convertor gearbox with hi and lo range forward gear, reverse gear , massive wide flotation tyres. seats two people and a dog. rear rack for carrying goods, the bike has the towbar kit fitted to it from new and it has the deluxe front suspension forks. front and rear light, horn all in place and working as it should. front and rear hydraulic disc brakes
People say I'm stupid and apathetic. I don't know what that means, and I don't care.
