wouldn't call it dropped it

I call it oops

could have been worse at least it stayed on one side
was doing 65 mph +
I broke some ribs that is about it
safety gear is your friend
was about 20 miles from home when it happened
rode it home
it should be back together in about 2 weeks
enough said


on the other hand the stage 6 intake / reed cage feels like
it is making more power
was running great
more to come

I'm glad you are ok.
How's the grip on your tires? I was looking at a set off parelli, metzler, michelin. I may go with Michelin's s1. they all go about 4000 miles.
Take care.

Glad your ok. I got the continental zippys and love them.

some of the replacement parts
and some I wanted to replace that weren't hurt from my oops
need to send right side panel back it is bent
wont have replacement panel until sometime next month bent top compared to my original

Glad you both made it out! At 65 you could have done a lot more damage. My tibia plateau went southbound when I was hit doing 60. Seriously glad to hear you're ok.

hi cruz. hole on to the panel until the other gets in. some times it takes months to get the parts.
you can use a heat gun to shape it back, if they don't have one.

Glad ur doing ok after the crash. I was hit by cager on the freeway last year, almost lost a foot.. All those plastics probably cost a fortune.

Loving your scoot! Glad to hear that you made it outta that "oops"

got the new panel in again
bent just like the first one
tried to install didn't work
even put a little heat to it to try to straighten didn't work
according to Honda no more available as of Friday
getting full refund+shipping
mine original left panel had only had 2 small scratches on it so back on it goes
now waiting on left turn signal housing ( on back order )

I am building another elite as I wait for parts for this one

I just sent a 120 miles rear turn signal housing to johnny248 and I don't believe he's using the lens. I sent it to him for shipping so maybe he could do the same for you if you want it.

Wow sorry to hear you went down, good thing you are ok and your scoot is still savagbable.

Where do you get those nice and new purple panels from? I can't seemed to find it. Thanks

What part does he need? Just the turn signal lense? I have one, but I though he had JDM tail light setup?

Let me know if I can help!

Is the intake you installed?

If so, I can see that it doesn't do the "out and up" thing that my Naraku (at the ct's do). I wonder what actual difference in performance the two different styles provides?
