Re: sad day in scooter land

Re: Traffic Light Tactics
Tennessee law allows motos to proceed with caution after waiting a reasonable time. The intersection your pass through however, better be loop-signal controled, or you have no defense... ALSO: The common U_TURN is LEGAL, Except Where Posted.... :urban: Phoenix is like that and for the u-turn, as lo...

Re: Traffic Light Tactics
I ended up sitting at a red light for almost ten minutes because a cop had someone pulled over just before the light on the other side of the intersection. And I was in my car along with about 20 other vehicles behind me.

Re: Honda Elite SE50 (split from build thread)
Thanks for all the input. Since I have to order new shoes, I will also order a clutch spring. I'm thinking either a 1k or 1.5k. Also getting that bigger jet and shave the head.

So, lighter rollers might help takeoff, but will hurt top end.

Re: Honda Elite SE50 (split from build thread)
Today was fun. I put the stock pipe back on and went for a ride. It seemed faster, I was still hitting 37+ on the flat, pushing 47+ on a hill, still at 25+ on a uphill, more up a slight slope. Then I'm losing my front brakes, I'm hearing grinding when I stop. I tear it apart and one of my shoes had ...

Re: Honda Elite SE50 (split from build thread)
So today I turned in the mixture screw an 1/8 of a turn, put all 7.5 gram weights in and took it for a ride. I hold 25 up a hill, 30 up an incline, 36 on the flat, 47 full bore down a hill. Problem being, there are not many flats in my area, well, I guess Seattle in general, so I need more speed or ...

Re: .....it's a flamin' Aero....
Are all people from Tennessee sight challenged?
Not that I'm complaining, your use of the extra large font helps me when reading.
But I just realized I was born there at Millington NAS.

Re: Honda Elite SE50 (split from build thread)
Hi, I have not sourced any jets yet, I will probably just order some online, my local honda place is slow as molasses. In February. North of the Arctic Circle. They also tell me they can only get up to an 88. I really need to do a plug chop to see if I'm lean or not with the pipe on. I know im boggi...
