Look at the Zuma 125. Your tires look like those. I like the style but I like to think I'm some kind of sport bike rider so I take corners laid over pretty far so that tread wouldn't work to well.

I'm just curios. I'm just trying to find the differences between your scoot and mine. Your shock(s) are the biggest glaring difference. Upon closer inspection one see's the 4t motor. The swing arm (for the second shock which is a total curiosity to me..), then looking closer you see the headlights are smaller, more like the 100cc Zuma. Then dashboard indicator lights (yours is left, right, high beam and mine is blinker(s), high beam, oil). I haven't paid attention to the wheels and now I'm wondering if they look different.  When I first looked t this bike I thought it was a 150 because of the dual shocks. But when I saw the CVT cover I knew it was a 50cc. I was puzzled too. It was marketed at the shop as an "on road/off road" scooter. pffft.....whatever. I'm glad it has 2 shocks though. Adds a sense of symmetry, which I happen to be fond of. |

Possibly the best looking Zuma I have ever seen.  |

So I noticed on my new muffler there's rivets holding the end on...This got me thinking. I was considering making it a "shorty". In theory, all I would have to do is drill out those rivets, hack off about half of the pipe, and re-install the end. Any thoughts on this? I know there's some glass packing in it, which might be kinda messy. Not too sure about the rest of the internals. There's no baffles in it. Just straight through.

Sounds strait forward and easy enough to do. Sounds like you're not afraid to tackle it, and I'm sure you can figure it out easy enough if it's not so simple. And probably smart enough to leave it alone if ya think ya might screw it up |
