From NB50 to 1970 VW Bug

So I got my Aero 50 to a a GPS verified 45 and since it runs so beautifully I moved on to the next project( I always need a project). So I got this 70 VW Bug, not my first aircooled VW, I've had 2 bus'. I'm surprised to find the corelation between scooters and VW owners. I think it's a "used to...

I was just telling my anti-Dead friend that the album to start with is American Beauty. What do you think?

Rode a 72 Corsa today, will never be the same...

Man, I rode this thing and I was scared. It barked the tire at 15mph, brings the nose up at 50pmh! Having never ridden a truly "built" machine, I have a new respect for the BBK. It's an entirely different beast. I never knew what the big deal was until today...http://anchorage.craigslist.o...

Re: elite?

it IS an Aero. 86 or 87 based on the kickstart, could be swapped onto the 85 though. Pretty good deal, not great though with no title.

Bolt on NOS on ebay--anyone tried?

has anyone tried the Sneaky Pete bolt on NOS kit? Sounds pretty rad for $35. If you can control your trigger finger doesn't seem like it'd roast the motor to me. Then again, I've never tried it. http://cgi.ebay.com/UNIVERSAL-NOS-KIT-SNEAKY-PETE-BARSTOOL-RACER-GO-KART_W0QQitemZ330382648716QQcategoryZ...

Re: Ruckus Vari needs belt to benefit?

I'd just like to say, Drizzle you were right. With a Ruckus vari and stock belt I saw a substantial top speed increase, up to 5 mph(unconfirmed except for speedo guestimate). I think I'm around 46 on flat, up from 41. I'm gathering washers to try out my Polini .006, but it hasn't made it off the ben...

Re: derestrict 01 elite S, SR oil pump necessary?

1.5 hours of WOT is a terrible idea. I don't think the motor would survive. There's gotta be a better way.

"view new posts" empty, why?

I'm just curious why the the new posts are sometimes a full page then other times empty. Shouldn't "view new posts" always be a page full of the most recent posts? what's with the reset to zero new posts?

Re: Hybrid carving trike, cool!

meh. If you were close to where you wanted to go, maybe it could be usefull. Otherwise I think bike, skate, scoot, walk are good enough options.
