I now want to stretch my scoot! Wait, I NEED to stretch it! Lol, looks great! Thank you. It's an outdated pic so I've got to get some current ones posted when this snow goes away. I only did a 6" stretch as I did it more for handling and performance then looks. I thought I was going to have to get new cables but with the lowered bars I didn't have to modify or change anything other than the stock motor mount. I like it especially with the bbk. It helps keep the front end down from a stop and corners way better. It also puts my center of gravity in a better riding position with the combination of the lowered bars.

It looks badass, but I love doin wheelies too much on my scoot, maybe when I get sick of them I'll think about stretching mine, maybe I could mock up a stretched mount, and send it to my brother to put together for me, but I have a Vento Zip and they take those stupid subframe mounts lol

which headlight is that how did u wire it any issues?? how id u support ur speedometer?? is an off-road 4led that I mounted using a bicycle phone holder. For my speedo I bought a weather proof phone holder and use Uslyee speedo app. Works very well. The light I just wired straight to a ignition hot wire and rerouted it through the stock high-low switch being low as off and high as on. Works great I've had the same set up for close to a year with no issues.

Even though it's got a couple of extra strokes for me, I'm really digging the look of this beast!
You've also got my head with bad ideas about stretching my Suzuki!

It handles so much better. It's not nearly as squirrelly and the front end is harder to pull up allowing you to get on the throttle just a little sooner coming out of a corner.

So I went down pretty hard yesterday. Hard as in I didn't see it coming till I was picking myself up out of the middle of the street. Was leaving a buddy's place, coming down a short steep hill into a left turn. I was going too fast to grab a lot of break when I saw sand. Then I heard plastic crunching and then sliding and excruciating pain in my right hand and as I was trying to get the scooter upright again. ( I have no idea why I thought it, but I literally tried to ride it out while sliding across the asphalt)
I didn't want to catch a truck coming over the hill so up as far as I could and back up to my buddy's place. Scooter has some gnarly gouges in it and it hit so hard it broke the plastic clips on the opposite side.
I think I might of fractured my metacarpal right below my middle and ring finger knuckles. I'm hoping it's just bruised, but man it's swollen and hurts like hell. The other bad sign was the red streak that was there for a while after the crash.
So watch out for sand from the sanding trucks after heavy snows.
