I made temporary licence plate holder: and now I´m riding like that: For the rear mudguard, I do not know witch way to go: 1. Gilera style rear mudguard (red on the picture) or 2. Build a frame, from the same stuff, that I made the plate holder and from the plate holder continues the mudguard (green lines on the picture)

A redo to make a permanent plate holder and no mudguard would be the best look IMO, but then you may still spray water road junk up on yourself with the back tire and it may be an issue for police if they're strict where you are.

Yesterday I made the braket for mudguard and painted it black. Second thing - I made the mold to make the mudguard:

I went on a small trip to Grandpa's ( 2x150 km - there and back ). Before the trip, I made a rear mudguard braket. On the way to grandpa´s home, I misplaced the bolt, that did hold the braket together. I did drag the braket behind my scoot for about 2 km on the gravel road. It broke my rear reflector, what was on the braket. I was lucky, that I had spare bolt, nut and few zipties on the trip. I repaired the braket and it looks like this now:

On the way back from Grandpa´s, I drove on the highway. I noticed a vibration on the rear, when I drove. The rear wheel was flopping ( did a figure of 8 ). This flopping was smaller, before the traffic accident, that I had on the morning of 5th august 2015. Now I certainly going to let the mechanics look at the rear end of my scoot before it goes to winter hotel. Maybe I need to buy new rear wheel + bearings and other stuff, like gears.

On that trip I rised the carb needle by one step. Everything was ok until I got back from the trip. Now, when I start riding after few minutes warm up, then the scoot has little power loss. I think, I should put the needle position back to the middle, like it was before. Or try some other needle, from my needle kit.

If it ran alright, you changed the needle, and then it didn't run alright... it sounds like swapping back to the prior needle setting would be a good first step/check.
