Re: old rider, new 86cc Elite E

One of things lost in the modification were the centerstand tabs. If I would have looked closer I could have kept them. I figure that I will add a kick stand.

Re: Elite E SB50 with SE50 implant

swerks,

that mount looks great!

I would love to potentially get a mount made from this fixture! Any chance of sending my mount to you + $$? :lol:

Thanks!

Re: Elite E SB50 with SE50 implant

an initial idea for a mount. other option is to get a square channel of the same size as mount body, and install/weld a round channel pipe. Motor attachment would be location right above kickstand.

Input?

EliteDio - I like that you used your factory mounting locations ...

Re: Starter Clutch issues
