What's the engine size on that? I didn't see it listed in your bio thing. Ahh crap you just reminded me... - 82cc SSP-G Dio 50mm top end, simply bolted on after porting the boost port into the case (also ported the inlet tract much bigger under the stock reed location - 24mm OKO with power jet paired to Chinese intake and modded Minarelli reed block with home made Boyesen reeds for Stella / RD350 - Tecnigas Next-R pipe for Dio - unknown performance variator, 28° back plate and 7g rollers on the longest, yes longest drive boss I had - Bando 729x18x30 (stock is 723x18x30) - Factory Genuine Roughhouse clutch, unmolested I did the oil delete plug as well, premix only. Plug is dark, so I'm still over rich but it helps keep things cool so I'm not touching the jetting. Runs great.

I was coming home on Friday. In the left hand of a roundabout going straight ahead. Car next to me decided in 20 feet, he wanted all of my lane too. Nearly knocked me off. It was then I discovered my horn had stopped working. Although it's still in warranty. Traveling 60 miles to leave it, then pick it up another day didn't appeal to me. What a pain in the working on modern scooters is. Had to dismantle half the scooter to get to the horn. Horn had power to it so went to the local bike breakers to get another. It's loud now! So that's a bonus. Was only £6, so gave the guy a tip. It's worth it not having to leave the bike in bits, or use my aerox.

I tried to take the Blue Kymco out for a quick ride but the misfiring it has been having suddenly got a lot worse, so I rode over to the shop to have a look at things. I swapped out the CDI first because it was the easiest to get to but it still had the wicked misfire. I moved on to the Spark plug and found this under the plug cap. Then I pulled the plug and was surprised to find this. After fitting a new plug, plug cap and wire and a new 14mm plug temp sensor everything was good and the miss was gone. I connected a temp gauge and just stuck it to the floorboard as I did not feel like pulling plastic and running the extension wire to the dash area. Then I got to go on nice ride but I cut it a bit short because there are tourists here in numbers I have not seen in years. Oh yeah, I almost forgot, I started the scoot with only the short exhaust header in place for a 2 stroke version of the 4th of July! Even a sport BBK is crazy loud without a pipe!

Delirium tremens, a common scooter disorder. Usually caused by beer or dealing with plastics.

I went to the mega lo mart to get some soup stuff.Then I went for a ride and found my self in the middle of a bunch(gaggle?)of Subaru's and Honda racers.It still annoys the shit out of me that people think noise equals power.My Dyno max duals had excellent flow and it would just purr even when flooring it. Nothing was askew in my little hamlet so I went home to an adult beverage after about 50 miles of cruising .

Started hearing what I believe is a rod knock yesterday so I swapped the short block today and but all my parts on that one. Well can't complain I got 5000 with the 50mm kit on and no idea how many miles before the kit was installed I beat the crap out of it I'm very surprised it lasted the 5000. Sucks bc I already ordered a stroker and naraku cylinder/head kit but can't be without my trusty scoot so had to do the swap I was hoping to make it till my order came but oh well

I went for a ride and found my self in the middle of a bunch(gaggle?)of Subaru's and Honda racers.It still annoys the shit out of me that people think noise equals power. Around me the worst offenders are pickups with glasspacks or no mufflers. Better yet, some of them squatted in the rear. They annoy me because some are so loud that I can be in the garage with all doors and windows shut when I'm trying to talk to the camera for scoot vids and they will ruin it so I have to start over. A tubbed and blown Chevy C10 went by yesterday with the obvious whine of a blower and that was OK with me and sport bikes scream past and that's cool with me. It's something about incredibly loud Harleys and slow trucks that annoys me.
