Picked up a MALAGUTI MADISON 125 2001 directly from insurance it had theft related damage and sold as a non runner but got it cheap so wanted to chance on the bike for the sum of £95 after getting it home went to take the battery off the bike to get it on charge turned out it had a battery that is dated from 2022 and still had 12.6votes so next i moved onto the wiring as im waiting on a new lockset just wanted to see if i can get the bike running and after sorting out the bad hot wire job they had some and rewiring the fusebox as they had burnt out the waiting with the bad job the engine runs lovely and sounds good so take it they no luck on getting it started    so now just waiting for lockset , headlight and front panel along with fork seals |

Today I worked on getting the scooter with bicycles and tat into trailer for the Green Gathering environmental festival to promote scooters during the transition to electric or yogurt powered vehicles for whatever the future is. Showing how to get scooters cheap or free for those on low income/no public transport/ disability and can't use bicycles for whatever reason. I am the only one in the country doing this at environmental events I think.   |

That is the near future. We will all be back to human powered basket weave carts with stone wheels scavenging for metal bits before this is over.

Finding it had to find the time to finished this new paint job, im doing a pin stripe in paint work. So it lay gloss white then tape over stripe and paint. But top half is in white undercoat and will be a orange bottom black pearl metallic, with gloss white inserts, wow did I give myself some work but getting there here is a pic of the side panels , the blue tape is a vinal edge tape. So that will be the pin stripe when removed. It's a lot more work than useing decal and I think a much cleaner look. Can't wait to get some black to see it with the orange the yellow taped part is the gloss white insert, should look good when finished   |

 Not so much today but this week. Fitted a Yasuni C10 to my Big max. The pipe was Yasuni 317-3 but my good friend and I managed to cut down and custom make a neck to the start of the camber section. It's woken it right up. Sound incredible. Needed to bring variator weight down from 6g to 5.5g to keep the engine in the pipes range. And also need to change clutch springs as it does rev a fair amount before setting off. |
