Put the parts down and step away from the scooter. Concentrate, padawan. The time will come.

Now get moved so we can see this come to life.

Chi-town what!

I'll bet your getting excited!

I'd be living out of a box if that's what it took to get my scoot running again. You are a patient man.

Another IL person woo! Yeah I'm getting pretty amped about this. Good things come to those who wait.... next summer the streets of Chicago aren't going to know what hit it after I roll this out haha.

cleaned up the engine a little more tonight, put some fresh electrical tape on the harness from the stator and tapped in the new oil plug

for your viewing pleasure





one may ask, ben, why do you have most of your engine covered in blue tape? a) I'm going to be shipping it to traffic sooner or later here b) I don't want spiders nesting in any of the crevices

[Bear45-70]

You need to put washer and bolt in to retain the plug or it will come out.

This thing isn't going anywhere. Trust me. I had to pound this in with a hammer. I actually PM'd toboggan at first and was like 'hey dude this plug is too big/doesnt fit'

It's a super delux edition plug , not the big money plug traffic fabbed up

[toboggan]
