I'm sure this is gong to be a mild build compared to most of the ones I've seen on here and other boards. Oh well it is what it is LOL. I am starting with a 2009 Baccio Speedy 50. Here's the ever changing game plan I have a 70cc bbk for it I am going to spend some time and $$ gettting the cvt set up properly I am doing a semi custom repaint stock handle bars steering stem and headlight are soon to be gone I am going to modify an aftermarket enduro mx headlight to fit. I have already machined a steering adaptor to mount a MTB stem and bars on the bike Paint is in process now. I have to see how it turns out before I post a pic. I am going after a monster energy theme btw. I may construct a handmade airbox I will be making my own dash as well I bought some billet bar end mirrors and machined some parts so they worked in the mtb bars already. Not sure what I am gong to do with the wheels. I can polish them at work but its a pita to keep them looking nice. what i started with only blue instead of red bars mounted and another with the bar end mirror mounts installed

Doesn't sound that mild to me. Nice bar setup.

the paint should look pretty cool if the clear doesnt interact with the base color. Question? ? I hate the stock brake levers. Is there a cheap aftermarket alternative that will swap right in? I do not need 80$/pr levers. Just wondering if there was a more comfortable bend thats affordable out there.

Levers are something I've never put much thought into on my scoots. Can't say I've seen any.

First coat of clear is dry on the upper cowl. It came out just like I wanted. Will add a pic tonight.-

I also removed the front fender today and raised the fork tubes in the clamps about 1 1/4".

should have the rest of the green in stock today so I can finish painting the rest of the cowl. Front 1/2 of the bike should be done and cleared by Monday night.
I'm getting antsy now for some reason even though this thing wont get ridden for another 2 months.

front 1`/2 of the bike is painted. I am still waiting on my new headlight to arrive. I havent decided what I am going to do about grips and a throttle tube yet. Wish I had cnc at work.
I vinyl died the seat flat blk to match the back of the bike. Painless process and came out nicely. I hope it holds up well.
