when removing the rocker arms, one of the cylinder studs came out with the nut. it is not stripped and will screw right back in but my question is how do i properly tighten it?

I actually noticed the change in all of the mods to my GY6 150 more after they were removed so I could sell it too. It seemed like an OK gain when isntalled. When removed, I felt like I was riding a turtle again. In the words of Cinderalla (hair metal band, not the princess) "don't know what you got till it's gone". Now I gotta that song stuck in my head

I haven't had the chance to install the bbk in my new scooter yet. I will this weekend but man I tell ya. The scooter I wrecked was so much faster due to the upgrades I had in it. I feel like an idiot going 15 mph up hills lol. I'm used to cruising 30-35 uphill with no problem. I'm gonna be taking the a9 cam and rollers and exhaust and everything off my old scoot this weekend and putting it on my new one along with the bbk. I'm gonna replace the bent handlebars and back tire and give it to my mom as a present so she will have a nice scoot to ride. Other than the few scratches it's in good shape

I've never had to use a battery charger on any of my scoots. I have had the same battery I bought brand new from eBay for about 8 months now and it works everytime. I guess the winter will tell the tale

The best and only way to get yellow lenses clear again is to use 1500 grit wet sandpaper and wetsand it and clear coat it. We do it all the time at the shop

Looks like the same bulb a regular tao tao atm50 would take.

Finally got my tire today. Put it on. Then in the process of putting my exhaust studs back in I think I managed to strip one. So I'm just gonna leave it in for now, it seems to be holding. It runs good and is actually pretty quick. Not as fast as my old scoot with the bbk obviously but it will suffice for now. It felt good riding around today. I was much more cautious about being behind people and keeping my distance so I didn't have to worry about hitting my brakes real hard. It's been 13 days since I broke my collarbone and its still a little sore when I hit bumps but it's not gonna stop me from riding! Scoot on brothers!

www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLggSq4qtzYThis was in my suggested videos on Youtube this a.m. Well, he sort of made it...I guess. He needed just a bit longer area beyond the landing point. Bill His only mistake was that he used a Honda that had front and rear drum brakes. If it was a Chinese scooter with front disc he could of stopped in time. yea and his front tire would have locked up like mine and threw him to the ground and broke his collarbone... but thats just my experience lol
