Ok here you go, I'll start it with the dio spree build.. here's how I got it. bought this coz I have an extra dio motor from an elite with too much back fees and it's just not worth it to register so I started looking for a registered spree and got this one for a very good deal
Af16 mock up
designed my rear shock mount using CAD.(cardboard aided design) courtesy of USPS
getting ready for engine mount fitting and welding the shock mount.
shock mount done
decided to remove the auto choke/enricher of the stock carb. Dont ask me why I removed it.. I just wanted to..so I Jb weld this
plastidipped my plastics.. maybe later on I will paint it with regular paint.. but for now I chose this gunmetal grey
My friend does his own powdercoat at his back yard so all I did was order my powder. base coat white and then fluorescent red as the main.
started to put things together. ended up looking for a rear met wheel because we had a hard time putting the inner tube and not damaging the powdercoat. so we redid the color to a met wheel.
and here's the first pic when it got done.
but after a ride. I noticed my exhaust was touching the side plastics and the carb wont let the plastic align on the other side so I decided to cut the side plastics to solve these problems.
Installed this also.. it was reading twice the actual speed verified with my gps..
did 140 plus miles on our local ride here no problem. had to take a gallon of gas though. 2013 EL Touro..
bike is pretty fast for stock motor, exhaust, and carb. only thing I change is my variator and 9:1 gear. Ive hit 53mph on flat on a good day. normally cruise 47-50mph. It's fun riding this bike.
