After much reading and researching here, it seems like the Dolmar 5100 would be perfect for me. How is the reliability of Dolmars? It's a concern since it looks like there are no dealers nearby in northeastern corner of PA. I also like that that they are made in Germany, I have a BMW motorcycle and lusted after a DKW dirt bike when I was younger(They had Sachs engines)
I would probably have to order online and do any tweaking it needed myself, but if I had a major problem during warranty) I would like a dealer within an hour or so to deal with.Should I buy a Dolmar? Any advice?:givebeer: :popcorn:

I live about 20 miles west of Wilkes-Barre, Pa. I looked at Dolmars dealer list and didn't see any dealers close by.
