Thank you Turtle!

Great, Thank you all!

Alright guys, I'm always posting bad news and stupid questions so why not just roll all that into one post!? Saturday night I installed the CMR 46mm/63cc bore kit from VTcycles on my SE50 Elite. It came with gaskets, cylinder, piston, piston rings, pin and clips. The install went fairly easy, we put...

Alright, so a couple weeks ago I left my scooter out in the rain, I know dumbass move, and when I went to try and start it after the rain it wouldnÔÇÖt start so I had to take the air filter cover off and remove the air filter I got it running without the air filter and let it idle a bit without the ...

I'm looking at getting the POLINI MODIFIED RAMP w/ ROLLERS from DAYWOT over on ebay. i was just curious if its actually worth the price hes asking, at the very least those weights look pretty sweet haha.
