Sharing the 90cc goodness with friends... I like it! I may have finally set the hook in him Brent! He's a mechanic and he's really wanting to find a 2T scoot for himself now! Muwahaha. Would be nice to have a bud to ride with from time to time. |

I believe I now have pe, err Scooter envy. I want mine to sound that smooth! You have a great platform to build on! Those VX50 Baccio's are a nice scoot! BTW, I saw a vid that 2Strokd posted of him doing wheelies on a large frame scoot. It's possible! I'm pretty sure it was a 103cc Roketa Air. Shakerdriver's scoot- Correct? Well I spoke to Dave about putting a BBK on it, 70cc would be it really, I can't afford to take it up much more. I can't do the machine work and all myself and can't afford to pay someone to do it, plus I'd have to change SO MUCH more plus the pain of matching everything. Trust me, I'd love to just dump a 150cc in it since that's what it was built for. I see the same scooters with 150cc in them and get kind of mad lol. |

How mad will you be when you pass a 150cc? Lol! You have a lot if potential with that 2t and it doesn't have to cost an arm and a leg. You can do it with a 70 bbk like Doc posted, a pipe and some cvt work.

Here's a product I've been wanting to look into ever since the guy I bought my 90cc stuff from showed it to me: Dial-a-jet.I just started reading about it. Sounds like a dream come true! Anyone ever hear of these or have any experience with them? EDIT: I started a thread for this in 2 stroke performance. |

I believe I'm losing compression somewhere just in the case. Maybe I'll fire off on the BBK and a gasket set today and get ready to do that soon. It's either that or I'll have to try and torque the head bolts and see if that does anything. It's a gut feeling though. |

I'm doing a scooter flip! I found this scoot on Craigslist and decided to buy it. The wifey said "Go ahead." It's a Cappucino or something... It's the exact Vento Zip R3i that I have the extra parts for from my parts scoot.  I'll start a new thread for it. I'm calling it the "Zip Flip." Drove 35 miles each way today- a 2 hour round trip on my scoot- in the rain- ugh. My scoot did great! I'm heading out the door to pick it up as soon as the wifey gets home with the van.  |

Good luck buddy! I've been looking to flip scooters too, I've had a few $75 and $150 2t's pop up on CL but I'm always to slow.

Clean it up drop a 90cc Polaris shortcase atv motor in it and sell it to your buddy or let the wife ride it Sent from my SPH-L720 using proboards |

Nice. It's good you have that parts scoot. I've flipped a couple and buying parts cuts into the profit quick. I've been lucky with having the stuff I've needed or finding it here or on another forum. Good luck with it! It's a great way to fund the addiction. Lol

I just got two scoots today for $50. They're both 4t though. One has had some work done to it. I'm not sure if I want to part them out or try and merge them. The dude said one of them runs fine, it's just been a while. They need lots of TLC and someone who knows 4t's well I'm sure. I'll make a post tomorrow maybe with pictures. But good luck on the Flip Niz! I wish we lived closer so we can do some of these together.  |
