Ok, so Thursday I filled up my gas tank, and rode for about 55-60 miles before taking a 1-2 mile trip to Walmart to pick up sausage for breakfast yesterday morning. I ended up barely making it ther, and couldn't get the scoot to start when leaving, I managed to get her running and make it about 100 yards, to the exit and she cut off. Ended up pushing her home, well today I dug out my modified stock airbox and rigged her onto the scoot!!!
Threw in a 90 mj, fired her up after filling the tank with gas, and boy oh boy does she run great!!!! Popped up 2 jacks under the pegs to lift the back tire off the ground, got the carb dialed in, she sounds like a cat purring!!!!!

Still trying to put together 80$ to buy this keeway f-act that looks identical to the tritons, has no title but I can easily get the engine running to throw on my scooter and sell my scooter so I can afford a title for the keeway!!!

Well, been talking to my brother about painting the scooter since he'll be down here on for a week on the 22nd.
When he was down over summer we planned to paint the scooter, but funds just weren't there. So this time, I'm definately painting!!!
Thinking about a gloss black around the whole scooter, and paint the rims a bright neon green!! Not totally sure, maybe even a nice shade of red, I'd love to have a whited out scooter but as I tend to get stuck riding in the rain quite often, that idea is thrown away!
What colors do you guys think would be nice as a secondary color? Rims, and some trim work.

Went off-roading for a few minutes after work!! Boy oh boy was it fun! Rained all day yesterday so the dirt was nice and soft, I ended up riding around about 15-20 minutes longer than the video but just want to share a bit of the trails behind my street! youtu.be/1ownPY3Wj34 |

Looks like a fun place to play.
Black is my usual color choice, but for some reason I've wanted to paint something neon as well. Neon orange paint sounds like a safety feature to me.

I'd love to have a nice bright shiny red scooter, just looked at tsimi post in the body shop section and his scooter looks sick!!! But I'm thinking black with red wheels and engine. Ima paint the engine at a different time, just wheels and body panels next week. |

Thank you!  At first I didn't wanted to have such a "bright" red more darker but now I like it and when the sun goes down and it gets darker it actually looks nice dark-ish red. The color I used was from a rattle spray can, Toyotas Super Red 5 (スーパーレッドV), color number 3PO. The Toyota Aqua car has a nice red color too. That would also look very nice.  |

No title needed here for 49cc and under. No one titles new ones either. If you title it you pay sales tax and property taxes yearly. Why would you want to do that?

In NY where I live you have to register even 50cc scoots. Also need to carry insurance. Also need a COO which is a Certificate Of Origin to register it.
Not gonna argue morality of it but if the scooter was stolen than someone lost property. Moving parts to a different frame doesn't change that. That's all I'm saying.

Here in Florida you have to have a regular drivers license to ride a 49cc scooter, anything above that you need a Motorcycle Endorsement.
You also have to have the scooter registered as well, but no insurance
