We tried out Bob's scoot, my scoot, and another friends's scoot (the same one racing my scooter in another video) and I got it on tape. Here's the video I just put together...

Man, you gotta get that clutch lined out, Brent. That new big-wheeler hauls butt pretty good. How much difference did ya'lls mods make? You may have posted elsewhere about this but I haven't been there yet. Enjoyed the vid, as always. You need to haul a camera person out there so all three of you can go at it at once. I love the sound of a bunch of bikes together.
I went for a pretty god ride today. Thirty miles maybe. I noticed a strange vibration sound coming from the right rear. When I got home I found a broken weld on the support where my muffler clamp bolts back to the belly of my pipe. Whew! Glad it is minor.

I need to get something done with my clutch. The aftermarket clutch revs past my torque and the stock clutch starts getting glazed after about a day. The 99cc just hates clutches I guess?
It still sucks watching the vid and knowing that if I wasn't huge I could beat both of these scoots. If you watch Roketa vs Zen King with both light riders, then watch the same race but with me on the Zen King there is a big difference there. Oh well, I enjoy it win or lose and I'm still fast enough to beat every 50, 70, and 80cc scooter I've came across locally.
Watch the vid of Bob and I racing and reverse the result. That's what happened before the mods.
The more the merrier, but I was just happy to have 3 of us around to be honest.
Good to hear you found the problem, and that it's cool enough to ride. Bob and I rode about 160-170 miles I think. He got pulled over by a local cop and kicked out of town because the cop said he knows that isn't a 50 and it needs to be tagged. When I saw the cop behind us I starting using my fet to push off from every red light so it looked like I'm really slow lol. The cop shined his flashlight on mine and said, "That looks like a 50. It's a 50 right?" I just said, "Yeah" and he went back to messing with Bob lol.

Oh. Hole Shot Performance, the machine shop. So are you ordering a new piston or just using the 59mm out of your big bore kit?

i dont know, but probably ordering a new 59mm piston. get him to mill the head .010. and i will port the head a little more. should make a small difference i would hope.
