First post. She's missing most of all the plastics. Need to source that anywhere used. Also, need to get the ignition switch off as there was no key. Police Auction, pretty much have no idea if it runs or not.

I attached a couple pics of the auction posting.

Oops, fixed the title as well. Need body pieces. Is this the right place? Thanks for the welcome message. :2thumbs:

It is a elite, but it's dressed up as a spree....

Looks like a old board member's creation, check it out...

Oh man. That's it! From Las Vegas to San Diego. Ended up at a Police Auction as an Evidence seizure. Hmmmmmm, if the scooter could just talk, lol. Such a small world and how these forums document everything. LOVE IT!

After looking at eBay and used body parts, this is going to cost at least $500 to bring back to original. Whole exhaust is missing too.

I might just part it out.

Agree with your thought, hardly worth the expense.
Good catch Tyler VR...I knew I had seen it somewhere.
Exhaust is hard to find for these... :urban:

I saw an exhaust on ebay new for over 200 bucks. Heck my Magnaflow on my Suv was cheaper.

Thanks man. Found a donor bad engine CH80 on Craigs. There was way too many missing pieces to give you a list.

bought a 2001 CH80 on Craigslist with a bad engine but had everything I needed as far as parts for $80. B M S Tuscan 50 with a 100cc mod. Also a non runner as I am sure he didn't assemble the kit correctly. Moved most of the parts over and the last thing is to remove the old paint from the faring and repaint. Getting there.

Sucks that this forum limits pic file sizes as I have a lot of pics to contribute :roll:

I use Microsoft Office Picture Manager to resize to an appropriate preset size of "640 X 480"...maybe this is possible for you too...mm

When I take pics with my iphone and want to post them, I email them to myself first. Before the email is sent it asks you what size youd like to send the file...I choose "medium" and they are post-able size.

I bet theres easier ways but Im too old to learn all the fancy tech processes. My new phone has 3000 functions and I use about 4. :mrgreen:

Pics resized to 500 pixels in order to post them. Wow, another bottleneck, can only post 3 pictures at a time.
