Get a Malossi RS24 rear shock, KN front fork brace with KN Live Dio or oem Honda ZX forks, and you'll be kicking even more *.

If I ever get a Windjammer pipe, I'll loan you the Burial chamber.

The suspension is good. I redid the font forks and got the oil weight mix I like for the damping. The rear has a adjustable damper too.just not enough power out of the corners because the pipe I'm using is just a little to big for the mhr bore I have on.a smaller inlet and j pipe will be better for that. The midrange to topend flattens out a little to much for my liking. Its hard to get a good drive on the 133cc and 166cc kit italian scooters I'm racing against.

Well it went good today. took 1st against a crf150r,yamaha ttr125, a pitbike lifan 140cc kitted bike and a ysr with a kx107 kit.these guys are not slow either. they also ride bigger supermoto and roadrace bikes too. they were just surprised that a scooter could be that fast on a road track being that it was only 72cc. I crashed in the 1st heat race but had a big enough lead to still be in 1st. got taken over down the front straight and i set him up in turn 1 to leav him for 1st place in that heat race. the final heat race I pushed hard for 3 laps and cruised the rest of the 4 laps to win by 4 seconds. it was fun.

this race was all motorcycles i raced against.one of the guys was getting * and said his only challenge was the crf150r.it was funny when I was 5 to 6 seconds faster a lap than he was and he roadraces a gsxr600 at pacific raceways.I'm going to setup a all scooter track day at pgp kart track so everyone can get out on the track and get the feel of what its like to be on a closed controlled,cleaned road with no cars people walking or sidewalks to deal with. and lots of runoff room if you go down without hitting anything. :2thumbs:

A windjammer will run around 60000 Yen, so that's about $705 before shipping from within Japan, and then on to the U.S.

Also, they take 10-30 days to make after sending in your money and placing an order.

Whenever you're ready, I can put you in contact with my friend over there.

WOW!!!! $700 for a pipe before shipping.man that's steep! Might have to wait on that.suspension first.I need to get those fully adjustable front fork legs and rear shock. I want to try those ATR ones or the ncy ones.the rear I might buy the RMS or stage6.
