Title: All purdy -n- stuff
Post by: bootscooterboogie on October 01, 2012, 12:44:32 AM
So, I de-schmutzed the inside to get it going and now the outside is de-schmutzed.  ;D  These pics were taken near some railroad tracks on the other side of town.

Blue - Since I'm an year-round rider, I'm going to be getting beefier tires before winter, for sure.  The stock ones are nice, but the winter/mud tires I saw seem to be a lot better.

Baddi - I know right?  I think I really lucked out!!  There are a couple of really minor scratches in the back plastics, but I think that was from it being knocked into as it sat waiting patiently for me.   ;D

I use Bridgestone ML50 Molas on mine, big improvement over stock, feels a lot safer in the wet. Think i only missed like 2-3 weeks riding last year and that was only due to heavy snowfall  ;D

+1 for the Bridgestone ML50 : it's the only tyre I know of that gives good grip on both dry and wet roads and also has a thread pattern that performs relatively well in mud and snow...

Nice - now added to the list.  LOL  My list is growing longer and longer...  LOL  Between the stuff for the engine I'm doing, the tires, the blinker sets, mirrors and adding LED's to the front, it'll be almost new scoot when I'm done.  LOL  But, I love doing it, so it's certainly not a complaint.  This is the most fun I've had with scoot, yet.   ;D

i'm using Schwalbe Iceman wintertires when the temperature is below 5 degrees celsius, and have been able to ride even in heavy snow (well, i live in Denmark, so my heavy snow probably isn't the same as your heavy snow) ;D
