the hose runs from the gold port shown in your picture, to my exhaust, there is an extra little tube that runs from the front of the exhaust (where connects to the motor) to the big part of the exhaust before it bends up for the smaller muffler. and yes its been very very hot but i never really drink soda, so im always drinking water, i work 3rd shift in a steel warehouse loading steel onto semis and its always even in winter about 110 degrees in there.

Cool. So can you really hear it when riding with the speakers in there or is it mostly for parking lots?

It's gotta be cool to put a little sand on the seat and crank it.

I thought the mud flap thing was cute, then you lit it up, LOL. Very nice personalizations you've been working on. I think the big loud speekers are a guy thing, huh. Inspires me to get around to putting my Kuryakin chrome hog onto the Roadrunner and get its eyes hooked up.

ya i love it, the little ladie mud flap thing, is an led i got from auto zone, with a blue toggle nos switch for it, the red led's under the scooter are run off the middle blue toggle switch and the stereo runs off the red toggle switch, i have more lighting ideas so once is all said and done in a few weeks i will get a new last pic of all my lighting and stuff, the 12v outlet will run off a toggle switch also, im gonna have a control board put in i think HAHAHA joking

I ran my 12V outlet off of ign switched power. Makes it easier not to forget to turn it off and it saves on a switch. The only down side is that when I turn my scoot off to get gas or whatever, my GPS wants to power down if I don't tell it not to.

Red/White is pretty common. Check right at or around the ign switch if you don't see red/white. Get the multimeter or volt meter out to be sure before you do any splicing.
