Re: Pirelli SL 26 3.5x10... anybody use these? will they fit?

Greetings: A tubeless type tire should be run with a tube if used on Spree/Aero/Elite rims. You must convert to Met rims if you intend to run without, or ride at the peril of sudden catastrophic deflation next time you run over a 2x4. The 3.50 fits the SA50 without issues in front, but the 1.85&quo...

Re: My 86 Aero 50 "Silver Bullet"

Re: Why did I waste all those years in Michigan!

... As T-Jamz stated, Snowmobiles are pretty much the most ridiculous toys ever. Without snow, you can't experience that. Who needs snow? Ever tried waterX? 180hp pushing 151" track on a 480 pound machine :twisted: BTW, my 670 summit will out run my 650 jet ski on the lake. I know a lot of peo...

Re: Why did I waste all those years in Michigan!

Life is too short to spend it indoors!!!! I ride my snowmobile all winter. :thumbwink: I agree snowmobile riding is fun..... But you have to go to certain places to do it. Being from suburban Detroit... You can't just get on a snowmobile and ride to work. It's still no way even close to a trade off...

Re: My mini T-Rex - Honda Elite

I like the rear even better!

Alot of so-called builds on here are just throwing a bigger engine on a painted frame with no panels and calling it a "build".

Not yours!

This really impressed me!

Again great job!

Re: My mini T-Rex - Honda Elite

Very cool build!!!!

One of the best on here!

I like the use of the scooter wheels, turn signals and speedo......

Looks really heavy though?

Definitely need more power than what's currently being used.

Why did I waste all those years in Michigan!

Don't get me wrong... I love my home state of Michigan and lived there nearly 40 years! BUT ....Boy does the weather suck there! Especially if you love to ride a scooter! Been riding my scoot down here in Texas for a while now and even though it's hotter than the face of the sun, at least you can st...

Re: Help! Variator=No acceleration details 4th post

Belt has grease on it from the clutch. Take the clutch off and clean any grease on it and re-clean the belt. While the clutch is off replace the center spring with a stiffer one. This might possible fix your issue.....
