The bong dosnt bother me, I wish they would use it for medicine.

What does though is the broken solo cup.

I do use it for medicine! I got a prescription haha. I cook it into butter and mix it w food or make cookies, works like a charm. Works for my back pain & helps me sleep.

It's not broken, it's knotched out to hold my phone so I can watch YouTube while doing scooter-work.

Ya I hope I can Polish the carb up easy. It'll look sick w the polished kicker-cover, burial pipe, and polished atv rim in the back.

Oh, I mean every where.

And that solo cup is a good idea.


I pretty much am the dimmest bulb of the lot.
What do you use to polish the cover? I used a wire wheel to clean the enamal off and now its just aluminum surface.

So, I screwed up, but I hope I can help others. I started sanding off the paint, but it was oem Honda-san so it took forever to get through and was taking material (metal) w it. So I bought a can of cheap airplane stripper, which is basically paint stripper in a can, but ok for aluminum. After I stripped it I found smooth aluminum underneath that just needed a little mothers Polish to bring out a high luster, except the spots I already sanded :/

My panal looks like brushed alum so I might keep it that way it looks unique.

So I got my manifold,carb,reeds, and adapter plate all lined up to put in and.... the adapter plate doesn't line up. I needed to drill out a couple holes, if you look closely on sss' ad it shows it in the pick haha. I didn't notice before hand and almost chewed a thread in my block. Got it drilled out and mounted now tho, w thick paper gaskets backed up by permatex ultra grey (closest to hondabond oreillys gas) just in case.havent fired it up yet, still need to do heat cycles.

Cool thanks

Got it started today. Gas was leaking out the carb like the float bowls are stuck, but it idled smooth and was running good. I've still got some heat cycles to do.

I need to remind myself not to look at this thread, it really ticks me off...

It reminds me my that i dont have a slammed aero, and I'm not ok with that.

It's looking great, keep it going.
