I live in Japan and have any moped to modify. Which one should I get. Something eventually modify to a LC kit. Trying to steer away from getting anything I can easily get from the States. I plan to bring it back to the States someday.

Where in Japan are you?

The DIO and JOGS roam wild in Japan. Pick up the af28 ZX like paul said, or grab a 3kj Jog.

Jog has more parts! :2thumbs:

get polini corsa watercooled/malossi mhr 2 rings, cast bore or aircooled bore polini corsa or contesta. you can get polini/malossi crank 10mm pin or 12mm pin.

in oahu not many guys get load cash to buy japan dio. hard to sell!

get too many low baller and trade for japan dio! just waste !

Im in kanagawa prefecture right now.

Which Jog is not available in Hawaii and I should modify? And whats the difference from a JP spec Dio and US one? I don't want to bring back a bike to Hawaii and look like the rest of the heard.

Thanks for the answers.

which JOG is a good one to start with? its real easy to get any brand here for cheap. just wondering which style is the best. mostly which motor should i start modifying?

thanks for the offer CB900F. I want to try mod it myself but will need some help doing it.

Any Yamaha with the 3kj motor will be the best. The "Finest Selection" and "Artistics" look the best IMO, but the nextzone(japanese) and aprio share the same motor(3kj).

jog zr evolution has bigger intake cage . . vino in usa market has better motor.

you can run on any jog with 5bm block. just flywheel and stator assembly from the scooter .
