The old thread was accidentally deleted so here's the new one. I'll start adding pics in a while.

That was my blunder. I went to delete a post in a bit of haste and deleted the whole thread. ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/sad.png) Sorry everyone.

So, to anyone seeing this for the first time, I started out with this beat up scoot ![](http://i.imgur.com/u01hm6k.png?1) Fixed it up a little and it looked like this ![](http://i.imgur.com/18i4YiP.jpg) Quickly got bored of it and decided to tear it down and start over with the intentions of making it similar to a track bike for the streets. Then I broke my ankle at work and so it sat in my kitchen in a pile of parts for a year. ![](http://i.imgur.com/RjGuDHj.jpg) Still haven't gone back to work, but every year I get a profit sharing check and so I took some of the money and bought a few parts ![](http://i.imgur.com/T2iB4rK.jpg) Tore everything off the frame ![](http://i.imgur.com/xabEx0M.jpg) And started slowly putting it all back together with the new parts Motor ![](http://i.imgur.com/mz26zBM.jpg) Frame and motor ![](http://i.imgur.com/8xFnKj5.jpg) Radiators and frame bracing ![](http://i.imgur.com/DX77zmR.jpg) ![](http://i.imgur.com/gXcHb1v.jpg) ![](http://i.imgur.com/EKR7jl6.jpg) ![](http://i.imgur.com/xJKsWhn.jpg) ![](http://i.imgur.com/8PaChEh.jpg) And about where it sits right now with some of the plastics ![](http://i.imgur.com/3598drt.jpg) Mocking up plumbing now (there won't be any blue hose when finished) ![](http://i.imgur.com/HaQjSDz.jpg) ![](http://i.imgur.com/i71qd7Q.jpg) So far there's only one zip tie and no duct tape so street cred is pretty dismal, but I'm working on it ![](http://i.imgur.com/Zes06pB.jpg)

Glad to see you got the basics back up. Now it's a lightweight racing version of the old thread. ![(thumb)](//storage.proboards.com/2855264/images/eDWyTTokntcMJkJGHuZO.gif)

90GTVertShit happens. No worries this thread will reach 30+ pages in no time. And besides we get to see many scooter porn pics on the first page.

Straight to the point! We'll get the page count back up soon enough. This time I'll keep my comments about you polishing your long skinny shaft to myself. Oops
