in the wheelie pics... are you guys picking up onn the bars like a bmx bike or you just juice it and lean back? lol and does it have power to sustain for a few yards or you just fall back down? just wondering how much power yall 90 cc'ers really have...
:wheelie:

In this vid i already have the front up but it was just a simple twist of the throttle to get it there. Its a 103cc tho In this one i am still trying to get the tune right and keep the front down, but yeah, just a twist of the throttle on mine   |

This is just me sitting normal and hitting the gas. A better rider could do a lot more, like 2strokd. When he gets the front up he can balance it and go down the street. I get nervous and let off or roll out of the throttle. lol
Not all 90s are going to do this. Deep gears, small rear tire, short wheelbase, proper CVT setup really help. I've got a 103cc that definitely has more power than the scoot in my vid and it takes off pretty slow in comparison. Larger tire, longer wheelbase, highway gears, CVT setup for speed more than acceleration.

I have to ride on the shoulder with a "50" in MD. If it's dark, sometimes I'll just roll with traffic. I've been past cops doing 50+ along with other traffic and I assume they just see one headlight and don't pay anymore attention at night.

That spoke wheel looks so good IMO. Great work on that scoot Brent! Ide love to ride it around some!
You got the wheelie part covered, now just stay in the gas some and ride that puppy out! Hehe.
Maybe 190mech should build you a nice wheel-bar training wheel? You could just set it were you feel comfy and ride all day on the back wheel..... Maybe even eats some chips and drink a Coke?

I dunno, I would feel wrong with training wheels. lol Wheelie bars are cool for drag racing, but it would also get me a lot of attention from the local law and pretty much ruin that the Venus looks and sounds similar to stock.

My ported 50cc Zuma pulls the front wheel when it "get's on the pipe" (scared the crap out of me the first time it happened, as I was in a corner, and not expecting it).
Not "big" wheelies...... about a foot (and I'm not a small lad).
