Hi Jason,

Blue one is a Blata B1 rep and Black bike is a Daytona Aircooled.

B1's are much faster and are capable of 90kph plus although being chinese they need a bit of fettling.

Check that they start and run ok, radiator should get warm as a common problem is the o-ring driving the water pump breaks and bike will run for 5 mins and then stop. Will start again after cooling.

Also check wheels spin free, usually the brakes bind but this can be fixed with a bit of tweaking.

I noticed the B1 muffler has pulled apart, may need a new exhuast which from memory are around $50-$70.

Feel free to ask any other questions.
