karmagedon Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Picked this up 2 weeks ago. I hear it's been down the O/S family. When I got it it wouldn't start. A quick clean of the carb and bingo, ran brilliantly. I didn't approve of random green rattle can in the middle, so I decided I might try get some painting experience. This is what followed. I decided a full strip down, paint and rebuild was in order. The strip down was entertaining, have never stripped a scoots before. putting it back together over the next few days. Might get a 70cc kit and a sweet zorst for max doorting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My name is Russell Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Seat and wheels look mint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karmagedon Posted March 10, 2011 Author Share Posted March 10, 2011 Seat and wheels look mint I bought a new seat cover from ebay, looks rather mint compared to the duct tape old one. Only issue is it doesnt fit snugly at the moment. apparently it will get tighter over time. And I gave the wheels a quick once over to bring some shine back Nah I still have the chrome mirrors, they just stashed away for now. Gonna learn to scooter and then probably go buy a 70cc almunium barrel kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karmagedon Posted March 13, 2011 Author Share Posted March 13, 2011 you should buy it. Also, takes me ages to get the thing starting each time. Think either the coil lead is nackered (it pulls out of the plug part once in a while) and the carb bowl floods if you leave it a while. So I have a new Carb coming, but if anyone has a spare lead, could you let me know. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
