I'm stuck with a 12 mx and no trade in deal because its off-road and trade ins must have a clean ca pink/ not a off-road title proof of purchase and current reg.... And I'm local to the factory..... Bought the bike from the factory.....so I have proof blah blah blah.... But it's not cover because as the voucher states only x and xu are the 12s for the "x platform". I was unaware that the mx is soooooooo different ..the dealer sure didn't think it would be an issue but not covered.. Ha
Sooo. Trust me I'm a little more mad than you right about now.... Hard to make light of that kind of situation. And yours trust me....
I have that exact same motor. And I thought it would be a nice replacement for the zero kart instead of the older original motor..... Big mistake lol..... Even the smaller fx would be more capable, I mean it's 2x the motor. Don't have to deal with brushes etc just an encoder angle......
I might have some brushess/ holders that you can use now lol shit.... Shit..... Shit....
Yeah that sucks. They really do need to look at who was there for them at the start. If you could find a brush and even just measure it for me, that would be helpful. There is a guy here who says he should be able to make me some. I don't want to take my motor out again just to measure them, I would prefer to at least have some replacements to put back in. I know the thickness. I would like to know the exact width and length if you have a newer one plus the pigtail length. The width is the most important measurement that I need right now.
Cheers, and thanks in advance if you can even get the measurements, that would be great... If you actually have a set of brushes and a holder I would be interested in buying them if the price was right too, even if the holder was a bit burnt up but essentially intact, I am thinking of trying to modify one a bit anyway. It shouldn't be this difficult to get parts for a bike less than 5 years old.
Under the current Australian consumer law, they really should be providing spare parts and service:
Consumer guarantees for supply of goods under the ACL
The ACL requires that goods supplied by businesses to consumers are of 'acceptable quality'. This means goods must:
be safe and lasting
look acceptable
do all the things someone would normally expect them to do.
When determining what is 'acceptable quality' for a vehicle, what is normally expected for the type of vehicle and how much it costs are taken into account.
Goods must also:
match descriptions made by the salesperson and in promotions or advertising
match any demonstration model or sample you asked for
be fit for purpose - this will include what the seller told you it would be fit for and for any purpose that you made known to the seller before purchase
come with full title and ownership
not carry any hidden debts or extra charges
come with undisturbed possession, so no one has a right to take the goods away or prevent you from using them
meet any extra promises made about performance, condition and quality
have spare parts and repair facilities available for a reasonable time after purchase unless you were told otherwise.
THAT LAST LINE IS OPEN TO INTERPRETATION. IMHO, I should be able to get parts for a bike that was purchased less than 5 years ago. As for the line about lasting, 1500 miles doesn't cut it.
