So dropped V50 off to auto sparky, so he had play around with lights etc so not going run battery and run lights off magneto, so able to run 6v or 12v bulbs which is good, more variety, took a while to get even balance after few popped bulbs found that need combined watts of 55w between my two lights if had more lights be better but only got headlight and tail light, so at mo it's running 12v 35/35w headlight and 12v 21w tail light, going keep messing round with different bulbs to get good set up
-
Yeah name time and date and be there pining for QCR ride

Pic dump been riding C50 all day today still running roughish and trying get use to the wheel stand changing gear..did some good ks on V50 yesterday
-
Yeah hard tail again could be option. Still think another 2inch might be needed haha and fat back tyre
-
Rode those today for first time..was amazing so happy got some back guard rub when hit few pot holes haha. So much firmer in front and better handling/turning circle. Thinking of making whole new swingarm and bit longer 4inch might not be enough and moving seat back...thoughts??
-
Got bike all back together just got to de loom all wiring as all wiring was in behind old forks..so just need ignition and power for headlight. And sort throttle cable and its riding time for a month till rego runs out and then see how changes go and might be few more mods if not strip it down to paint. Enjoy
