i already have a watercooled race bike, do i really need another? the answer is no, i do not. bailing out on the 120cc and doing an aggressive 70cc setup. more to follow.

lol update, G9 so kindly took back the 52mm bore and crank and i ordered up the Polini/SSS corsa pipe. got the front end ALMOST functional, the speedo works on the ZX headset with the ensure racing wheels. I ordered the corsa from G9 today. Going to get tires mounted and get this thing rolling tonight. Hoping for an easier time tuning the cvt this time around. what a s*** show last time, NOTHING would work. i cut the case for the bigger ruckus variator last night, things are coming together

I like the detail and color-matched wheels, but it looks like your stickers say "Fuek Scooter Swap Shop".

got the elite running last night, everything works on the zx headset, all the lights work and the bike sounds great. I think I'm pig rich on the bottom Its not snappy and responsive like my RT motor. will work on getting everything together this afternoon and get some pictures taken. hoping I have better luck tuning the bike this time around.

Elite is done!! I need better clutches for both my bikes. I threw the stage6 clutch off the ruckus onto the elite, maxed out the red springs and the launch is still sub par. I'm hearing the malossi delta and dr pulley are the clutches to run

Anywhere here's some pics! Pulled out my friends MINT elite Lx sporting the SSS slick willy

Stock vs not stock. Pick your poison >:)
