Well troll lets see what this thing does. I just installed it in my new ride with a new BBK. Lets hope it doesn't grenade the motor. But just in case I gotta figure out how to mount my action camera on the scoot before I take it for a test run. Fingers crossed. :burnout:

The Mazda had a rotary engine which required a more better supply of spark. I'm curious to see what it will do also. My guess not much? let me know for sure. I had tossed that idea around myslef.

Are you keeping an eye on the temp of the engine? I ordered CHT gauges for both of my scoots just now. Though I don't think my M1 is pushing that hard of a temp now that I rode it for a couple hours tonight and did some tuning. I may still be on the rich side, but I figure for now it's safer with the new cyl and all. Keep us posted if you don't launch yourself into the desert.

Honestly it's been so damn cold here that I haven't ridden for any extended amount of time. That and with the temperatures being between the high 30's to high teens I don't think its gonna be likely to get to hot. Today was the longest ride I've taken it on to the grocery store which is 4ml away.

The ambient temp does affect the motor for sure, but I'd still keep an eye on it though unless you're 100% sure of your jetting/air/fuel mixture and all. I'm a n00b so don't listen to me. I'm surprised I haven't made a fireworks show yet outside of my house. Tonight was the longest I rode since the BBK and it feels like it's breaking in nicely, it just needs fine tuning on the carb at this point.

Well jhobe6678 you need to start video recording and documenting when you do things like this. Everyone enjoys a good fireworks show. :lol2:

Providing I survive, I do try my best to post pictures if need be and to document everything I do that I can remember. It's hard these days, my short term memory is like a damn game of boggle most times.

That's why you get a wide angled lens and or multiple cameras and set them as a somewhat safe distance from where you're working and let em roll. Ha bet you didn't think I knew what a wide angled lens was did ya. :idea:

Ha bet you didn't think I knew what a wide angled lens was did ya. Or I could always put my baby (my wife as I call her) at a safe distance set up like this... If you think I've spend money on Scooters, this hobby right here has cost me much much more. I paid more for the lens you see attached to it now than I did for my M1 from the dealer. And yay you learned something!!!!
