hey--good loking scoot--I admire your taste--maybe it's because I have a Roketa Bali with 600 miles on it . I think the dark blue will be a great look replacing the red striping. I have to go in and see why my front wheel is wobbling soon...bearings, out of line --we'll find out. enjoy the ride..Don

Well, "suture self" as they say in the hospital, but I think the red looks pretty cool too. Nice scoot!

Bali's are nice scoots. I had the maroonish one. The windscreen does a great job of deflecting the wind too. Mine went about 63 mph too. I wrecked it though and had to replace it with a roketa catalina. I think the catalina is alot more comfortable but it feels way bigger and I can only get about 52-55 mph out of it. It is slower and feels heaver although it does feel a little more solid. I think the gas tank is smaller on the catalina too.

Nice looking scoot Wildbill! It looks more sporty and less generic IMO, pretty sweet! What about those mirrors though? Your idea, or OEM? I would get carbon fiber.

They are stock OEM mirrors, I just added a little reflective tape to stand out a little when i ride at night. Your right carbon fiber mirrors would be nice & I've had my eye on a Carbon Fiber set on ebay for a while. Might get 'em pretty soon.
Thanks for the compliment Aero!
Just a reminder to anyone reading this post, scooter mirrors have 8mm threads
So if you are looking for replacement mirrors, they must have 8mm threads, or you have to buy a 10 to 8mm reducer, to use 10mm motorcycle mirrors.

WildBill, We went to Amzoil after 500 miles in our 150. You can do it most anytime. I know, they say you can only break in an engine with petroleum, which I don't believe. I used Amzoil in all my Harleys and my last 3 cars. On my brand new cars, I switched to Amzoil after the 1st 3000 miles, no problemo, ever. The blue looks way better than the black paint! The only black ride I ever liked was my 1981 HD Sturgis, which matched my little brother's Sturgis.
