Thank god i still had the connection for the stock airbox, scoot tuning had this filter able to connect to a 32-35 mm and i doubt it was bigger than 28mm!!! But i think it looks badass coming out off the carb like i have it!! Still looking for around a 68" drum break cable!!! No luck so far

Can you run the cable a different route to make up for the slack? I had to do that. Instead of coming under the scooter from where it was originally, I just went to the other side and then run to the tire.

As long as it doesn't get in a bind, it should be ok.

It ended up getting in a very bad bind and seems unrideable... Well rideable but i doubt itll stop me if i need to go from 40mph to 0 suddenly. So i dont dare ride the scoot, niz76 can vouch for how crazy the pinellas/pasco drivers are!!!!! So i connected carb up, will get check tomorrow and pick up a spark plug, finish putting it back together and get her running and take her around the block to give her a good tune and order a brake cable!!! All i can find is a 72" cable which is same i have now, so ill order that and re-route the cable so itll be tight and stop!!!!!

IMHO What you have now is better than that carb.

Whoop!!! Today before i Started pouring i went downstairs and attempted to start the scoot, couldnt get her to start yesterday and figured id need to check compression, but.... She started first kick today and bogged for the whole 2 seconds she ran then cut off. I kick a few more times and she started!!! I have a 105mj in it open filter and along with no throttle response cuz carb fucked up. New cheapo carb should arrive tuesday or wednesday then ill tune that baby in good and be ridin!!! Then its on to niz76 house to ride around town with him when were both free! Im off wednesday for court and meet with probation officer to pass yet another drug test!!! So the carb will get installed than quite possibly

So i remember i had the air inlet screw on the carb all the way in, i screwed it just about all the way out and still conplete bog so ill start from a 100mj and work my way down with the new carb!! Will probably end up with a 90 but i dont want to go straight to a 90 and its too lean!!!
