Thanks for the advice.

It's true that we listed a plastic spacer on our instructions, while sending washers as a replacement. We have changed our documentation being sent with these upgrade kits to reflect this change, as we have received 1 email about this issue also. I apologize that our documentation had this error.

The one thing I would like to have better with this kit is the tightness of the "D" holed, 28-tooth gear. These gears are being broached to be a very snug fit on the D shaft of the Mini-Bike motor. If the motor's shaft is marred slightly (by beating on the shaft to get the manufacturers' gear off... or by the manufacturer's gear set screw), then our 28-tooth gear needs to be pressed on firmly.

I suggest 2 things to help this situation:

1. Use a scotch-brite pad or a very light sandpaper piece to clean up the Mini-Bike motor shaft before adding on the 28-tooth gear.

2. Heat up the gear to expand its hole before putting it onto the motor shaft.

These two steps should help facilitate this installation. I will add these to our documentation also.
