A couple of weeks ago, i went by AutoZone to browse. I like to look at random bling there. I ride quite a bit with my feet on the extreme front of my floor boards and sometimes in a tuck with my feet on what would be the passenger pads at the back of the floor board. So i picked up some racing style auto peddle covers to see if i could mod something up for the scoot. I took what was supposed to be the break peddle for an automatic and cut it in half for the front two positions. And used the clutch and break peddle pads intended for a manual car for the rear sets. A little red paint to match the scoot and this is what i ended up with. Not a necessary mod but i kind of like it. Anyone need one lonely accelerator peddle?

That looks real nice man. Almost looks factory. Not to over the top. Nice.

I'm thinking about a Kymco Super 8. The new one comes in a 2 stroke version. Same motor that is in the 9.

Just saw that last week. They are heavy machines but the quality is exceptional. Wish they were LC like the early S9s.

That turned out very nice Tim. Had you not told me what was done, I wouldn't have even thought about those being add-ons.
Something I never noticed in past pics... did you make your own frame sliders or what are those tubes on the lower section? EDIT : Maybe camera mounts?

Thanks. U got it...camera mounts.
The little cables hanging are for a click-in safety chains. Good thing too, i've kicked the camera out a couple of times.
