Yesterday, I was working on a side project for a dude, who contacted me via Facebook. I did put a ad there, about welding job, that I do. He wanted 2 garage doors with metal sheets on them. He did change the plans for the doors 3 times. Yesterday, I did weld together one of the door frames, according the last plan. When I started to weld on the middle support for the 2 diagonals, I noticed, that I have too small clamps. So, I went and brought a big clamp, to hold the part together, while I weld it. I did have trouble starting my Aprilia SX, So I took of thet BR9 Series sparkplug, that Camex motoshop sold to me. That was the starting problem, I did swap it back to the BR8EQ, that was on the bike, sense I brouht it. Bike did start up right away. I did mount the clap to my handlebar guards and rode to my garage  I still need to make that spark plug tool and defiantly, an new table. Because the table I made, is too small now when I have drill press, wise and metal cutter on it  Maybe I do two tables - one for drill press and one for the metal cutter. Some pics of the side project:     |

Yesterday, while I was riding to work, I noticed this on my 2020 Aprilia SX50 Factory dash. Should I be worried about that?  |

Im gonna swap back to the 17,5mm Dellorto carb, because the 21mm carb has massive fuel consumption. And bike did run and accelerate better, with the 17mm carb too.
Difference between 17,5mm and 21mm carb. (When the yellow fuel light came on the dash):
17,5mm Dellorto (Main jet ?)- 140km
21mm Dellorto (main jet 95)- 80km

Few days ago, I went to garage to work few hours on garage doors. When I decided to go home, something happened to my bike. Anyone know what could be the problem?:
a) rpm´s are over 6000
b) choke does not bring rpm´s down
I hope the cylinder piston is ok and not blown to peaces.
I did push the bike back to garage and took the 21mm Malossi carb + new intake off. Replaced the intake and carb to the previous setup (original intake + 17.5 mm carb). I installed the new coolant hoses too (between cylinder and the 17,5mm carb). But I can not remember, was the fuel line connection on the left or on the right side of the 17,5mm carb. I did not make any pics of that.

Few days ago, I did visit RUMMU QUARRY in my home country Estonia. I went there with my 2015 Aixam GTO, what can be seen at the end of the video. It was my first visit but next time, I will take some swimming gear of stuff with me. Nearby is old Murru prison too, then I will visit that too. But here is a footage from my first visit to Rummu Quarry:

Yesterday, I did visit the Rummu Quarry in Estonia again. This time, I was there from 11am to 3pm. We visited the nearby prison and I took Aero Surfboard on the Quarry lake too.
This is the Prison video (long one - 4K):
And this is the video about Rummu Quarry and Aero Surfboard adventure on the Quarry lake (4K):

I desided to sell my Aprilia SX50 Factory, because I need money to massive repairs to my 2015 Aixam City moped-car, that needs those repairs badly. Those repairs are going to be expensive. One dude offered me 1300€ for my Aprilia, that does not stay running. He told me, that he is 70% sure, that the cylinder is bad or crankshaft. That is the reason, why he offered me 1300€. Should I take on that offer or let the Aprilia Dealer fix my bike and then sell it?
Aprilia starts, revs high and then shuts down. Does not stay running.
Im wondering, does this moped-car qualify as a scooter and can be displayed here?

Today I asked that guy, who made me an offer, that how its gonna be with the bike. Now he is second guessing about his offer. Why would a person want to buy my bike and make me an offer, if he is gonna back out on it. I can not understand that kind of thing  |
