Re: Throttle cable no longer auto closing

I disassembled the cable where it splits from one to two for carb and oil pump, if i twist the grip you can see the rod moving back and forth. I don't totally understand how that operates the rest of the cable. Where is the spring bear? the only spring i see in the whole assembly is the one under th...

Throttle cable no longer auto closing

So heres another snag in my build. I removed the oil pump, and plugged it with the aluminum plug from VT Cycles, but now I can't figure out why my throttle stays open after you twist the grip (grip doesn't recoil itself just stays where you twist to). I assume this is my bad because it worked fine b...

Cooling shroud fitment

How have people modified the cooling shrouds for the cylinder head in the past when running a bbk. The polini kit is significantly taller than the stock head, and I'm using head studs as well.

Re: Drilling out exhaust baffles

Yep, same one I ordered. Ordered it on the 8th and it still hasn't come yet, when they say a maximum of 22 days to ship they mean it! For 25$ shipping I'm not impressed, but thats what you get from taiwan. High people in amsterdam are faster shipping my gears than these guys are though :jack:

I ordered a tact exhaust for my se50p, basically just an unrestricted se50 pipe, and was trying to figure out whether it should be drilled or not. Any help would ...

Re: 87 SE50P Gears?

So I guess I don't totally understand, you'd just pick up the final and primary drive set for a dio and you're set? Daywot also sells both in his ebay store.

87 SE50P Gears?

Reading through the forum I can tell gears are a heavily disscussed topic, but I guess I'm still pretty lost as to which gearset to buy for my elite and where I can source the parts. Daywot on ebay carries gearsets for the Dio but didn't know if they were interchangeable with my elite. Any help woul...

Re: Joining the scootworld

Haha yep it's my first scooter. I've actually been living on these forums for the last month or so, since I first started looking into buying one. Great info here, loving working on the scooter so far it is definitely addicting though! Just like cars.

Re: Joining the scootworld

Haha thanks guys, I actually bought this scoot in Nashua New Hampshire. It's looking good so far, waiting for the uni filter, the jets, and my bbk to come in so I can finish up the project.

Joining the scootworld

Been fishing through these forums religiously for the past few weeks now sourcing out new parts, tech-info, and reading some build up ideas. I figured now that...
