    For what its worth, you can buy 300cc kits & heads on Aliexpress for them.
    I feel a little uncomfortable putting so much importance on ethnicity, but I am a Kiwi.
    Those big bore kits are interesting, if I decide i'll be replacing the whole head anyway I'll probably go that way

    What's wrong with being a kiwi? An American would want to know everything about the topic before posting blow by blow accounts with pictures & movies of the whole ordeal & a Maori would have ridden it until it was completely fucked without ever putting a spanner on it. So I figured you were somewhere in between.

    Nothing wrong with being a kiwi, but everything you're implying (and explicitly saying, apparently) is somewhat racist and makes me uncomfortable.

    Oh fuckin please. If I applauded you for being a maori everything would be fine, but you didn't steal the bike & then thrash it without a helmet on until it was completely fucked, so clearly you weren't one.
    Theres something seriously fucking wrong when its considered poor form to be proud to have traits that are predominantly found in a white person from a certain country. Get some help for that one.

    False.

    There's nothing wrong with being proud of having certain traits. The thing that's poor form is perpetuating the idea that particular traits are inherent to a particular ethnicity or social group. Internalizing and normalizing the idea that members of particular groups are more likely to commit crime (or more generally have any particular trait) is doing nothing to actually solve the problem, it's just going to make it worse.
