Nice. I've been thinking about picking up an Express. They seem to go for pretty cheap on CL.

d*** near any moped can be made into a Spree killer (except maybe Benellis and Betas...even Batavuses are goin' fast now). Seen the Wildlion stuff on Treats before too, so not as rare as you'd lead people to believe. What has my curiousity is that if you have the Fastest d*** Aero in the Known Universe, why are you even mucking around with something as pedestrian as an Express?

That's good to hear because I have a 70cc DR BBK, high comp malossi head, boysen 2stage reeds, K&N filter on the way as we speak cleared customs a day or so ago. I also have a new carb on the bench and some jets for it on the way. It has a 0.25 cyl on it now all ported to perfection and just broke in. I also have a pocket bike pipe for it all ready to go, I put the stock pipe on for the break in of the cylinder piston and rings. I must say I really like it, it is pretty darn fun. I like being able to just pick between the spree and express depending on my mood. The other night I had the express out after the gig in the city, put it on the rack drove home pulled in the yard and hopped on my spree and went for a late night blast around close to home.

Oh yeah and I ordered a trailtech cyl. temp gauge to go with the new setup, I should have ordered one for the spree while I was at it, I should order it now. I figured all that money spent on goodies that a temp gauge would be a good plan to help dial it in.
