Again, kudos on the build. It has class full tilt... :thumbwink:
That carb looks wickedly close to the panel...maybe the shock is keeping it from contact...
would worry me on those unavoidable pot-holes from H/E/L/L... :urban:
Nice job concealing all hoses and cables... :eyeroll:

I can't find one thing i don't like about it :worship:.
I like the kicker and brake levers. Is it lowered and if so how much?

Yeah the carb is sooo close to the panel, I may trim a few hairs off. I do worry about potholes. :(

Thanks. I'm actually looking for a different kicker for it :lol: The extension kit and the rear shock make it a lot lower. I can tell you the exact parts if you'd like.

Man I'm tired, I thought the thread title referred to a dio that was ground up in some large grinding device lol.


Good job though, much better to look at than some ground to pieces scooter :thumbsup:

Always a pleasure to look at a fine example of a moped. Even more so when photos of the starting point and parts of the duration of the build is also shared. :2thumbs:
