I really like the thumb lever manual chokes on these prebugs.  I like it so much I'm thinking of trying to fit one onto my AIR. |

Found a Prodigy clutch and bell in the engine from the 2001 scoot. Appears to be Taiwan performance stuff. I believe Autotech355 sells them on ebay. Looks cool but I prefer the Polini   |

Is there ever a good time to tell our wives that we are getting another scooter?

After you've taken them for couples pedicures and a nice dinner with plenty of good wine.

Getting some electrical work out of the way while I wait for jets. I spent an hour trying to trace the flow of electricity through the board on these led turn signals before finally giving up and re-wiring the whole dang thing. Don't know why I'm so adamant I get these working as it's obvious they never worked before since the PO just added their own signals. Sometimes wanting to beat a challenge just outweighs common sense I guess lol....   EDIT: OK I give up. Waving the white flag. I don't even have enough resistors to make these work. It literally took a 27w headlight bulb to soak up enough juice to remedy the "hyper flash" blinkers (could've been less- that was all I had on hand). Moral of the story: if you're going to use led blinkers; get the led blinker relay! |

I figured I'd find a performance variator considering there was a stock vari in the box of parts included. It's another Prodigy product. Ramps look a little better than stock since they don't just dead-end into the wall, but not much. It uses the stock sized 15x12 roller weights too. Note to self: Don't buy a Prodigy 'performance' vari!  Since I dragged my feet on ordering the jets I think I'll play with the CVT a bit. I have some clutch springs that oughta help turn this baby into a real wheelie monster! The jets I ordered are are 105,110,115,120,125,and 130... |

Looks cool but I prefer the Polini how does it compare to the Polini ? What's the I.D. of the clutch bell? I haven't pulled the clutches off just yet but I can tell you I had to remove a bunch of material from inside the CVT cover to clear the Prodigy bell. It's lightweight but it seems cheaply made. I don't really like how its welded together of multiple pieces... The clutch is the same diameter as the Polini but it seems to stick out further.  |

Even with the 'restrictor' washer in place the belt is nowhere near down onto the boss. I don't have any more room on the crank without sacrificing the starter pawl or the e-start so my only option for a killer launch is to file the faces of the vari... BEFORE:  AFTER:  |
