nice wee scoot.. love the fa and fz series

Between this polytech shit and the thing with the vag, I'm turning into such an antisocial mofo.


Please excuse my dumb questions. This is the first car I have worked on.

yeah its not that tidy in person. so you rekon just tidy it up abit and recover the seat?? kinda keen on the older fa50 spoked wheels. orr just roll it as is?
also i kinda think it has abit much rake with the front end like that it just looks kinda weird?? still handles sweet

That rake will be sweet for riding it on dirt etc... And if you put FA50 wheels on it you'll gain top speed (they look smaller than an FA wheel?).
