Next webike order hopefully includes turn signals and taillight.

I will be getting more aesthetically pleasing signals and taillight in the near future.

I have gotten over the initial disappointment of the oil leak and will be contacting the manufacturer (IceBear) soon to talk with a representative and get something figured out with them. I am sure they have a warranty program of some kind in place and will be able to deal with the oil leak issue and get everything resolved and make one of their customers very happy and satisfied. So for all who have viewed my thread and will view this thread, I will keep you all informed as to the outcome. Like I said, I am sure they will be able to work something out and get my new bike back on the road. I really do like the little bike and have had a lot of fun riding it.

So here are the wheels. They smell like they came off the cnc machine and then right into the box used to ship them. There's some spotting from cnc machine coolant, but it should all clean up easily and a light polish will make them shine.

Update:

With some help from minimadman, I was able to get in contact with the manufacturer regarding the oil leak, and they said I needed to take the bike back to the dealership where I purchased it. Apparently the dealer will do the warranty work and be reimbursed by the manufacturer. I am still waiting to hear from the dealership what the problem was and what all had to be done to fix everything. I hope to have it back and be riding it soon.

I am going to be placing another webike order soon. I am ordering a rear set, bar clamps/risers, extended swingarm, taillight, and probably a better looking seat too. I am still trying to decide what tires I want to run on the new wheels I bought. I am thinking low pro tires will look nice...

I don't think is go with low pro tires it would take away from the look, unless those rims are bigger than stock

The stock wheels are 8" the new ones are 10". I have to do an extended swingarm to make the rear wheel work, and I'm thinking a low pro at least in the front to clear the engine head.

I should have my bike back from the dealer tomorrow if all goes well after the test ride.If that does happen, minimadman and I will get the oil cooler back on and install the rear fender eliminator. The exhaust will have to wait until I get rearsets so the exhaust mounting bracket can use the mounting location the stock pegs are using now. Another webike order is in the works. Oh, tires too!!
