2T is just a way of saying 2 stroke. T1 and T2 is what I call my Tritons. Just trying to make sure we're clear. I have no idea what 3xyoo is. You said in another thread that it's a 2 stroke, so it's the same as the typical long case 1E40QMB/Minarelli type engines. It has a 12mm wrist pin, as opposed to the smaller 10mm pin found on some models before 2003. You'll need to know that when choosing a big bore kit.

lol I think I'll be OK. Never know though, it's easy enough to make a mistake. After pulling every wire out of my car and chopping up all the harnesses, this isn't that bad. That involved an EVTM, multimeter, and a good bit of thought to get things placed right. Everything worked first try. I was proud. This is just chillin' with a soldering iron and some clippers. ;D To be honest, I didn't even realize how long I had been working on it, because I was enjoying it. Yeah, I'm weird. lol

It's kinda the same as any other work. I don't enjoy fixing a problem, but I like modding. ;D

Looks good! I need to clean up a harness for Skeedr. But at this point i might as well just make my own from scratch. The only things i run anymore are my gauges..

I swapped on a YSS adjustable rear shock. I know the other makes the frame and pipe meet on even minor bumps, so it seemed like a must have. The YSS is for a Vino 4T, because I found it's specs at 10" eye to eye and most adjustable shocks I found around there were more expensive. Looks like a nice piece, and came with a tool. Slightly longer, but the only adjustable shocks I could find to the other shock's specs were selling at a Ruckus place for $150 or so, some ridiculous price. Swapped on the correct rear wheel too, so my wheels aren't multicolored.

I wasn't really that pleased with the view looking straight into the rear of T1 after the light swap. Granted, most folks aren't gonna get down level with it and look, but I will. lol I made up a panel that would fill the area better, and it'll give me room to mount turn signals so the stockers won't be stuck out of the sides. This let me move the tail light up 1" and out about 1" as well. I picked these amber LEDs up on eBay for $6 a pop. I didn't really know what I wanted to do with them, but they are flexible so I figured I could find some spot for them. I drilled a series of holes for each light to be flush mounted. Gonna let it sit overnight at least. I'm not very good at paint, but it turned out OKish. Stupid debris fell in just after the last coat.

haha Had that happen too. I'm just no good at painting period. You shoulda seen me try to make one of my guitars ultra gloss black. I had paint cracking, things in the paint, bubbles, you name it. I stripped and sanded that guitar body so many times before I finally said screw it it'll be plain black with all the orange peel it wants to have. lol It plays just as loud as a shiny guitar. :rofl:
