well guys, i think im going to stop on this project for a bit. i ran out of parts for it. im still lookin for a front brake cable, speedo cable, tail light, fuel lines, seat. i do have the leg shield to paint. i might as well hold off till i get the cables put in. i hooked up the jumper box and the engine turns over nicely. :D till i can find these parts for dirt cheap, im just going to put a sheet over it, and put it aside for now. i was hopein i can trade off some other parts for the parts i need. no biggie. oh yea, heres a pic of the muffler. :wink:

Yeah but that tire only works if your not a fat * like yhe guy i got mine from. The dealer put on a new tire that size cuz the load rating is a little higher (thats what they told him) . But his lardness made the tire side bulge out and wear threw the fender. Hence if you look at the post of my scoot youll see there is an aftermarket filter on it, thats why

Did you use any special paint on the engine or gear case? Like a high temp or anything?
