Hello! I was referred here my user Woot. He just bought a scooter from china off the internets because he was jellus of my free Honda elite 80. Here are pictures of my sweet scoot: The helm of domination: I hit the plastic over the gauges with some rubbing compound, and it looks like new. It says "elite", I must be a baller...until I painted over it: Boredom and a few cans of spraypaint primer made me do this: Victory beverage: Anyway, it has a brand new battery that does not hold a charge (more on that later) and some rotten tires. I think I have the tires figured out. The exhaust also fell off. It cracked by the muffler. I guess that's a common problem with these. Good thing I know someone with a welder. It had not run for 2 years when I got it, so Woot and I cleaned the carb out, and it fired right up even with the crappy 2 year old gas: youtube.com/watch?v=XhbZLcTB844Now that I know it works, I need to put new gas in, re-clean the carb, put new tires on, fix the brakes, fix the charging issue, paint it a bright color that does NOT make me look like a section of asphalt, then go roll in STYLE!! I have a 4 mile commute to work, this thing will be perfect. Anyway, glad to be here!
