I'm with medman - re-gear that thing! I was checkin the message JustChillin posted about the chrome Body Parts website called www.scooterchromeparts.com, gotta tell ya guy, this website is sick (COOL) lookin. I mean they have all the chrome parts you need for your Longbo 150 Advenbture. As a matter a fact, after checkin out the entire website. I found that they have all ( I mean ALL) the body parts for your scooter in CHROME for your Longbo Adventure scooterchromeparts.com/#/scooter-gallery-5/4536623523. Oh by the way, I recommend signing up as a VIP Member (it's FREE), cause they have some specific pages you won't see if your just a regular user. Theres a page called GREAT DEALS for VIP Memebers. And theres a Manuals and Diagrams page you can get infomation about many scooter models. It's worth it !!! This website is super cool, it's ashame I did see it before. But it's never too late to start custom building your scooter. For those of your who still have warm weather you can start customizing today. And for those of you who have put away your scooters for the winter. It's still a great time to custom build your scooter for next summer. Thanks JustChillin for opening up my eyes to this wonderful scooter website www.scooterchromeparts.com. Pierrat MAN!!! jus chillin' those parts are very expesive!!!! I live in a town where anodizing, powdercoating, plating etc.... etc... is done regularly. You would not believe how cheap I could do my own wheels for. I did look at the link though. I have an oil cooler on the shelf but it is winter so I am not in a giant rush. I need to post some more pics of this with recent changes. I cannot seem to be satisfied. Every time I save to buy a cheap car it end up as a modified scoot. jus cant submit to the cage. PEACE and thanks for comments. I pray we all could have a scooter attack weekend in the US.

Damn that thing is sick. I just got my first Chinese scoot and was trying to visualize something like that last night when I was looking at it. Dropped seat and drag bars. That tank is nice. I was wondering what to do with the tank on mine.
I have a question, though. Have you noticed any negative affect on handling from having your weight centered farther back on the bike?
Also, did you ever figure out anything regarding the engine angle? Some of the guys at totalruckus.com might be able to help with that. A lot of guys on that forum have swapped 150cc GY6 motors into their Rucks, and I understand engine angles can be a challenge there.

The bars took a little getting used too. The angle of the engine is fine as far as oil is concerned.... speedbumps and potholes are frightening though. The stock amount of oil is just a tenth or so too much. The engine is holding up well though. total ruckus was no help with this question. I couldnt search the board with the right phrasing of question... did get similarities with header pipe clearance...thats it. I plan to do a custom header pipe that comes out of head and does a u turn behind battery so it will no longer come out the side of bike. will look like no pipe at all.... will use same muffler. the only thing that sux about this build is the rear shock is soooo short that wheelies are no longer possible

Sweet bike. I'm in the process of stripping my one scoot down and doing a nakid scoot. It has the same front as yours and I love how u cut it. I'm gonna do mine rat rod style and put a "peanut" tank on it from a Harley. I hope it's done by summer. Nice work!!!!!

Shook, Looks great my friend. I rebuilt a 150 for a friend and it was bad. It had a complete 180cc kit with head cam new valves from KS, performance 30mm carb totally rebuilt the tranny with all MRP parts, Polini kevlar belt. Ruunning 14gr Dr. Pulley Sliders and the guy who I built it for only weighed around 120lb.That thing flies. I forgot about the MRP exhaust. He came back and it scared him real bad. LOL. He has let it sit all winter and has not done anything to it. I have not heard a thing from him so when it comes time for him to run it I am going to let him take it somewhere else and let them work on it.
It is a shame that he let this scoot sit without doing anything to it.
YOu really have one awesome scoot.
Bill
