Re: Rain = Slipping belt?

I ordered the belt and gasket before this problem came up. I needed to change it out anyhow. I'll let you guys know what I find.

Re: Polyethylene Painting UPDATE!!!!!!!RESOLUTION NOW POSTED!!!

I have had good and lasting results using bumper paint on PE body panels.

It adheres well and lasts, however, it will rub off if you attempt to do a wheelie at a stop light and drop you scooter. :oops:

Rain = Slipping belt?

I had three days of going home in the rain and now either belt or clutch is slipping because the engine will rev up but there is hardly any forward motion.

Has this happened to anyone else out there? Any ideas?

I have a new belt and transmission gasket on order.

I measure 43 inches from contact patch to contact patch on my Spree. The platform is 60 inches wide so there is plenty of room.

I use one of these.

It works great for me and it is a lot easier to deal with than a trailer.

Re: White walls

The paint showed up in the mail yesterday, so for now at least I know that the company is legit and not just scamming money for nothing. They said it would be here last Friday, but considering it came by mail and Fri/Sat were USPS holidays they had the transit time right on. My wife and I have hous...

Greetings: Dang tank ain't even dented! I thought they came that way. :) There was a time when I'd have done almost anything for that very bike. So you gonna restore or just ride it?
