The brake rod system is the same as used with the previous X1 serie cars.
Shame we have to fumble again with small 2 mm screws and nuts where a dedicated Z shape servo arm would make the car better in appearance and less parts to brake off.
This still looks like a 90's solution.
Adjust the rods according to the drawings in the manual.
For the brake side a piece of the silicone fuel tube is used.
We will show you in the tips & tricks section we use springs instead of silicone tube to have a more linear braking feeling.
The 2 stage foam air filter has a large diameter.
There is no air filter oil in the kit.

We advise to use foam filter oil you can buy for motocross bikes. A bottle is around 12 Euros and will last a long time.
Use one of the bags from the parts and put both stage filter elements in the bag.
Put some oil inside and massage the oil thoroughly trough the elements so no white color is shown anymore.
Then inside the bag squeeze as much oil out as possible and take the element out of the bag.
Take an old piece of clothing and press the element a little more so excessive oil is removed and the element is evenly colored.
The second stage filter is nicely covered at the edges to prevent a possible not filtered air leak
The first stage filter nicely covers the second stage filter.
A covering edge would have been nice too so it prevents the first stage filter to move.
Make sure when you mount the air filter on the carburetor neck you use a zip tie.
The air filter correctly mounted on the engine.
