Lol she's coming together nicely- most importantly- quickly! I might do something with the CVT like put Dr. Pulley sliders in it. I have a bit of an idea to give it that last 'pop' at the end... I'm not exactly sure what I'm going to do yet- something with custom decals  . Here's the seat all de-stapled and de-skinned:  ...and re-skinned with my usual $3 Walmart material...  Here's how she's sitting now...  |

Dang I wish I could've gotten those brake pads today. This could've been a very quick flip!  |

Honestly, you're inspiring me to get this Agility out of my possession. And you're making me want to make it pretty too!
That thing looks great. I would definitely give you close to your asking price happily, even knowing your purchase price.
Again, that looks great!

Who needs brake pads when the scoot's so pretty that the new owners head should be bloated sufficiently enough to cause a considerable amount of drag. In effect his (or her) head should act as a nice air brake.
You can use my words in your CL ad. I'm cool with that. You're welcome.

Can always rely on PFS for a quick delivery! (It helps that I only live one county away from them ). Got the brake pads today and got them installed and the system bled...  I needed to deal with this other little detail- an ugly looking windscreen thingy(?)...  I wet sanded it down past most of the scratches and gouges...  And then went to buff it out with my favorite compound- 'Blue Magic' headlight restoration paste. It has a little bit of grit in it to polish real good- but after looking all over my garage for a few minutes I can't seem to find it! "What the heck did I do with it??" Now I can't remember if I used the last of it the last time or not.... In any case it's gone and I really felt no desire to run up to Advanced Auto to get some more at the moment so I decided to improvise. I used some Turtle Wax I had and sprinkled on some baking soda for the "grit". Worked ok! The Blue Magic would've done a better job, but hopefully spaz12 will say it looks good enough from his house!  Yes, I couldn't help myself and just had to add that Malossi decal haha... I took the scoot out for a spin around the neighborhood just to test out the brakes and all is well. I can officially call this 'Ready to Sell'!  By the time I got everything finished after work tonight it was dark so I'll take some beauty pics tomorrow in the sunlight. I was also thinking about cutting some vinyl decals on my hacked Cricut machine but the software I need is on a hard drive in a dilapidated laptop... Maybe I'll swap it onto a different laptop and try to revive the old hacket Cricut- maybe. Depending on how long this takes to sell I might also play with the CVT a bit and possibly throw some Dr. Pulley sliders in it- would sound good in the ad haha- but as it is, this scoot runs and drives great just the way it is! I'm planning to throw a quick Craigslist ad up tonight with a few pics from the garage here, but tomorrow I'll post the 'real' ad with some good pics out in the sun like I normally do. Hey,- big shout out to rickymalaguti for turning me on to an app that's like Craigslist that I had no idea existed- ' OfferUp'. I didn't know about this but there's some pretty good deals on there. I might just sell this scoot or buy my next flip there. Thanks Ricky! |
