my bare bones elite
its an se50 i picked up for $150.
plan's try to register it. it is out of the system.
if registered try and gather enough body panels to make it hole if i dont want it bare bones any more. we will see when the time comes.
if registered save for a dio swap.
if not registerable do a goped style build like the ones that capturedbyrobots has built.
give me feed back please good or bad. i will try and get some more pics asap.
as you can see it has a bunch of different things on it headlight, blinkers front and rear, taillight.
parts i have for the bike so far.
death grip's. (they are black with little skulls)
head light (i will see how it looks.)
thanks for looking

Re: my bare bones elite
yeah im not gonna do anything to it till after i figure out the registration. i was looking over the bike and saw that some of the wires need to be taped where they were joined.

Re: my bare bones elite
Not bad I got to say. The parts look nice and clean. For $150 you can't go wrong. Just get some plastics on here, and fix her up and it'd be PERFECT! Pretty loud I'd say as well.

Most of my money is spent on scooterparts. The rest is just wasted.

Re: my bare bones elite
well i like the bare bones look if anything i will just paint the aluminum pieces flat or gloss black and reupolster the seat.oliveskate wrote:Not bad I got to say. The parts look nice and clean.

i will get a better video of me riding it around the neighbor hood when i find a way to mount my camera so you can really hear this thing.

Re: my bare bones elite
I dig the flat black. Really clean looking scoot. I'm not sure I'm fond of the front turn signals though, but as they say, safety first!
Re: my bare bones elite
yeah i dont like the signals either i am looking fr some replacements to put on once i register it.
