  2. Pulled scooter apart too check back brakes bearings spinning freely in the alloy housing whacked them out and backsides of them are open to absolutely no grease so purchased some new ones on the way home and some loctite 680, I hope that works oh and grabbed some of supercheaps finest lime green rattle can paint

  10. Oh and I had taped up the unused light holder from the original dash yeah they’re made of squishy rubber prob what actually killed the rectifier added bonus of now using dc circuit is its fused too
  11. So yeah that happened, whilst looking for a wiring diagram (figured should be similar to a grom which is popular in USA and lots of english sites) found you could buy a rectifier that just puts out dc for the lights so can also run led lights I stumbled across this http://tripageled.com/store/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=182 so just need a jumper wire to the DC brake circuit seems easy and free there was a aux switch already wired into the brake circuit for a extra taillight that I assume they used on the post bag that would of been on the back so chopped that and put into the headlight wire from the rectifier hey presto I now have switchable headlights and working led display
  12. Cheers man yeah figured for 337.33 even if it was toast I could use it for parts for my c50 but seems to be running mint, just need to seal a few oil leaks went for a night ride and discovered the speedo didn’t light up figured since I had the cluster apart and the handle bar loose I’d chuck my old cx500 straight bars on, also remembered I had a speedo too so on that went
