I still cannot decide which one to go with, take a look and let me know what you would. And in the end it's just my money, not yours so no worries right? haha

i would spend the extra bucks for the airsal on provoscooter i've heard good things about provoscooter and i have heard a few too many bad things about ncy's build quality and attention to detail to buy anything motor-wise from them but it is nice that the second one comes with a head with larger valves i wouldn't mind having one of those
-
keep in mind though that aluminum could be a little touchy and or easier to damage/blow i don't know much about how they coat the cylinder but i definitely know cast iron is tougher than aluminum
-
Right, I'm just kinda worried about the durability of the aluminum. I do plan on doing a decent amount of driving with nearly wide open throttle and worry a bit about it blowing of seizing. I'm kind of getting the feeling that with the cast iron I may get some more life out of it.
But so far everyone I've talked to has had a different opinion, so that's why I posted this topic to try and get some feedback from Kymco and scooter enthusiasts themselves.
I know NCY is a Taiwanese brand which is a good thing and have heard great things about Airsal but hearing some negative things from people on here about NCY makes me second guess...
-
If you read what wordslinger wrote about the ncy clutch, I think you would give them a miss. I was a fair while ago, so I don't remember where it was. It turned out he had to machine parts of it to make it work properly.
-
yea i remember him having a lot to say about their quality control.. try and find a Naraku cylinder that's what i'm using and no complaints so far ;D

Finally done bugging you guys with all the indecision on which kit to order and went for the airsal, mainly because of reputability. Can't wait for 4-6 business days to get here!
