As shipped:  After I repainted (and got rid of the gaudy decals):  The paint I used was Krylon Fusion. It was a satin finish paint I chose and I'm happy with the "industrial" look. Much better than the original "Transformers" look. Repainting was a diversion while I tried to figure out its idling problem. |

LOL, transformers...
Looks sweet... now you need the "Forced-air ram-duct mod", that someone did with a similar scooter. They used a 5" elbow of PVC, I think... Cut it to a shallow angle, and mounted it to the intake holes for better cooling air. (Normally, all these scooters suck-in the super-hot exhaust air that emanates off the pipes, and it blows the hot air from under the bike, back towards the intake... Making cooling at idle, or low speeds, a challenge.)

Nice! Mine came the same way but I painted it olive drab. I almost painted it all red, but the OD was what I had laying around.

That's the mod I was talking about...
But he has a larger intake, I think... by the looks of it.
