Well. i moved to fayetteville to go to school. and since doing so. my car has gone from 28mpg. to about 16... stop and go and hills are killing me. as well as walking up hill both ways to all my classes. and scooter parking is up front on campus and only 7 dollars a year. so i went to the local scooter retailer and picked up a new scoot. its made by Peace a chinese company but since most of it will be replaced and such so i didnt care.
Its a 50 cc chassis and has a 150cc motor in it.
i got it for about 1200 brand new with 2 year warranty.
I have a few plans for it. stretching/lower it. mabye do a big bore kit. but for now just basic things.
also just orderd a 115 main jet and a uni air filter.
im thinking gold wheels and a all black bike will look good. it looked great on a zuma i saw once.
but.
if i come across a ruckus or ruckus clone frame. i will be swapping everything over to it. and having a 150cc ruckus.
pictars.....
that was the bike brand new.
as it sits now. and 70miles later.
i need to balance the wheels and probably get rid of the crappy chinese tires becaue they do cause for a bumpy ride. lol.
the only issue ive had so far. its randomly it will cut out and die. and not start up again for a while. its a gravity fed tank so im thinking the culprit is the fuel petcock valve. so next time it happens i will test it to see.
Ive already adjusted the valves.
