Title: Im back!!
Post by: leo.portner on August 31, 2015, 03:04:00 PM

Ive been gone for a while.but my diy has been going!
3 weeks ago i decided i had enuf of my old long cleer wind braker
Sooo i started thinking and came up with a plan
All i needed was
1 16" car hub cap (plastic)
1 air pressure cutting tool
Several grade sanding paper
1 gloss black spray paint

I placed the plastic hub on the center line of the mask and lowerd it until i got the shape i had in mined
Then went over the shape with a thin black marker
And cut out the shape using the air tool
Then sanded the rough edge and painted black...

All was going super well.and then 1 week ago i get on the xciting and... All the xcitment went away
I have a flat tire...
This was the point where i decided my tires are very old and worn out plus the air leak at the rear tire was from a patch made previously
So i went and bought 2 pirelli diablo scooter tires 150/70 r14 and 120/70 r15

And this is how my day lookd like

I did a complete variatior rebuild changed rollers and belt
Cleand the clutchand sanded down the speed bands (thats how we call them)
Cleand the bell and using a fine sanding paper smoothed it out
Greased it all at the right places
And that was it...
