just thought i would post a couple of pics (please excuse the kitchen we only moved house recently) :)
-
nice did you paint the tires your self.
-
That's just adhesive tape on the rim, not painting the tire (which may disadvantageous for the rubber).
-
Looks Good!
-
Yeah, that reflective rim tape really stands out. I have got some coming for mine. Can't wait.
-
Cheers rianna,as sid said blue its rim tape looks normal bright red in day hit it with a bit of light and it pops very cool and safe too but an absolute ar5e to put on,and if your thinking about doing it you will need lots of patience and a good degreaser for your rims before applying you have been warned :)
-
Sweet!
Awesome for two reasons, first its a great looking bike, Second cause my wife won't let me take scooters in the kitchen. ;)
-
lmfao mrmutt.thanks very much,got a lot to do to her yet (not the missus lol) ps the missus as got her good points and bad same as anyone but you know when you land lucky 8 years must mean something right!,and if it makes you feel any worse about your kitchen situation,my missus is 10 years younger than me lol :)
-
im seriously considering a flip flop paint job over winter rattle can of course,i spent from the age of 13 years to now to master spraying,it was my job for 5 years never done a flip colour tho so i recon its about time to give it a whirl (darn expensive tho so no room for errors) :)
-
...flip it.....
-
so gonna do slinger be december when i get around to it tho :)
-
your mirrors have been stolen to ?
or I am the only lucky one ? 2 weeks ago my kick starter was stolen to ... now if my scoot doesnt start at first button push (and usualy dont) I am screwed... I push that button until I have no battery...
-
Sorry to say, but you are not alone.
Someone stole my battery and battery cover - leaving me stranded.
Sorry to hear about your problems.
Sending bad karma to those who do such things....
-
2 weeks ago my kick starter was stolen
...wwowwww........
-
and I just heard from someone else I know - had the wipers stolen from her car yesterday. Not just the blades, but the arms and all.
What kind of world is this becoming?
-
..my neighbor's metal bench glider was stolen from his front porch a few weeks ago...
..suspiciously, a day after he sold an old junker truck for scrap..(they came and picked it up)..
..hmmm........
-
Yeah, we probably don't need Detective Columbo to solve that one....
-
..and that's what i told him...
..he's like 77 yrs old..and said..."awww..my son knows those guys...they wouldn't do that"....
-
But, it's always someone you know and that you think wouldn't do it!
-
I'm still blown away that someone would steal the kick start...and the mirrors!
Totally random - and I worry about stuff like that because I know whoever stole my battery and cover will be back next time they need another part.
Maybe time to lock a pitbull up next to my scoot.
-

If you could train him to drive the scoot, he could run 'em over and pin 'em down 'til you get done at work. :D
-
he could run 'em over and pin 'em down
..yeah, and maybe snack on some choice body parts in th' meanwhile...
-
What sucks is that there is nothing you can really do to stop this. Not a problem around town, but if you park same spot for work each day....
-
Not a problem around town, but if you park same spot for work each day....
..that's true...people DO CASE TH' JOINT!!!
..i had an ex-girfriend who's brother was an expert at it...
..when he wasn't in lock-up...
-
...expert...in lock-up...
:D
-
...yup...he is...
-
Don't tell him I live in Central Maryland.
Or that I park at the subway.
-
..he's eatin gaol-food right now...
-
Ermmm its a sad,bad and mad world,or didnt you all know that :o.But at the end of the day best thing to do is laugh and shout out loud!! "BOLLOCKS",it makes you feel better trust me on this one. ;D ps yeah some scrote sack nicked my mirrors,but he didnt do it again and he pretty sorry he did ;D ;D
-
You caught him, omfg?!!
-
hell yeah ria,and he was pretty sorry,it was 2 days after he nicked them i caught up with him,and he wont be stealing mirrors in the near future or at least till the wounds heal ;)
-
Nice!
Wish I would have caught up the individual who stole the battery from my scoot.
- and then we would have a case of assault and battery!
-
ill mirror your response os ;D
-
best way i can explain.I dont wear fools gladly,hope this makes sense :)
-
Wow, omfg, that's amazing you caught him! Guess he won't be touching your scoot no more! ;D
- and then we would have a case of assault and battery!
Smooth play on words, there, oswaldters! :D
-
Thank you for noticing!
But I have to admit to being very angry at the time. Got over it, but did have some brief fantasies about going Charles Bronson on whoever it was.
-
os theres a lil norman bates in all of us lmfao ;D
-
it sits there and waits for the apropiate moment then BLAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM lmao,think theres a few to many drug abusers around my area,scum sucking bottom feeding low life & thats being polite ;)
-
Yup, that's why we end up with pics of our scoots in our kitchens! :D
-
Shame I can't take it with me on the subway so I can keep it safe at work.
I never worry about something happening outside my house - it's that blasted subway station where I park it every day. Magnets for thieves these subway stations are.
-
no we end up with pictures of our scoots in kitchen due to living in england,were we get 364 days of rain and 1 day of sun lol ;D
-
ermmmmm kym dont do rain lol ;D
-
kym dont do rain
or cold...
or cold and rainy...
-
..dang..i ride rain or shine..warm or cccoollld........
:-\
-
..dang..i ride rain or shine..warm or cccoollld........
That's the only way to go - but sometimes the scoot is less than enthusiastic about it!
-
lmfao why should i ride a mint looking clean scoot in rain or cold when i got a works van and my own car,dont make sense does it :D ps i ride for fun not cos i have too ;)
-
I ride because I like to, a bit of rain won't stop me from riding to work. Hmm, the car is looking like a dust ball, sitting under the carport, perhaps I should wash it.
-
..well, i lost my driving license, due to a dwi, for two years...
..here in NC, one can operate a less than 50cc motorcycle on the public streets, without one of them there licenses...ssso....
..i got hooked...
..i could get my license back...been eligible for nearly a year.....
...but why would I??....
..don't need them, or the $250.00 a month insurance rates...
-
omfg!! $250 a month my gosh thats daylight robbery dude :(,dont blame you using a ped,here in england if your banned your f**ked you cant drive nothing at all (stupid uk laws suck) and we have to tax (£15) mot (£30) insure (£80) per year on 50cc peds,insurance is a licence to print money over here,example was talking to a guy i know he owns a 1.2 seat ibiza granted hes 21 yo,£65 per week yeah per week wtf this realy p1sses me off,he never crashed or dui nothin,purely because of age,he previously owned a aprilia sr50 (£35 insurance per week).WTF GRRRRRRRRRRRR >:(
-
sorry sid,maybe my last post was a lil confusing,i dont mind rain cold or any type of weather,but i wouldnt set of on a ped ride in p1ssin down rain or cold unless i really really had to,thats why i got me a car,if i get caught in the cold or wet stuff so be it,it dont bother me ;)
-
..dang...
...how you make that sexy-looking "L" with the line thru it!?!...lol...
-
you mean this one? £££££££££ ;D :D
P.S. I have not been riding for weeks as me and cold do not get a long well especially on highway speeds.... also don't like riding highway in the dark at morning rush hour..... kinda scary on many different levels :-\
-

..AINT THAT FOR REAL...
..itsa jungle in th' morning....
-
perhaps once I get the money (what is that? ::)) I will look into buying a light protected jacket and better helmet with some reflective stuff on them... right now all I got is a black jacket and black helmet.... DOH
while I am dreaming.... get heated gloves too lol
-
..i NEED me some of them heated gloves....
..i got's arthritis in a cpl of my fingers....
-
They got them 'hot hands' things at the $ store. Just sew a pocket inside yer gloves. ;D
-
Have gloves, the heat is coming.
-
Wow, it's hot where you're at, sid?
-
Will be in a couple of months.
-
Next performance mod; pumping the tyres up.
...lmao...just saw that...but TRUE!!!
-
Yeah, I was only kidding, but I did pump up to 36psi rear 32 front. Flintstone tyres. bump, bump, bump.
-
..i run 40 in the rear and @ 32 in th' front...
-
Interesting....
I've been toying with the pressure on the new Viper's.
the recommended 25 in front and 29 in back feels a little mushy to me.
-
..yeah...i started there...but quickly jumped up to higher pressures...
..imma big boy....
-
I think I'll step up the pressure a little at a time and see how it goes.
-
...worked for me!!
-
Sounds good - but going the full 40 in the back? You're a wild man!
-
..i dress out at around 225lbs....
-
I could put ona few kilos, actually, I am working on it, in a bad way.
-
...bad way??...
-
...but seem so right!
-
...but seem so right!
...hmmm...
.yes....
-
At first I thought that was a picture of your new splash guard.
-
..the can's OD was not large enough...
..i tried....
-
you need to find one of those king cans.
-
they just don't make them cans big enough for ya, do they? lol
-
...the color-scheme would work...
..and i bet the LEDs would work...
..it'd look pretty good!!!
..don't reckon i'd mke it half-way home with a "BudLight" air filter tho...
