New scooter! 1988 Elite LX
Posted: Fri Sep 02, 2016 11:28 am
Got this little scooter just recently! It was in awful shape, with hardly any working brakes, lights or guages.
It was also painted a horrible all-over flat black, with an american flag on each side like some kind of stealth blackops scooter, invisible at night
Sine then I've gone over the basics. Rewired the ignition wires to have effective lighting, worked on the brakes, cleaned the filter, checked the airbox for mods, inspected the exhaust for any restrictions. It has 3.0x10 tires.
Repainted to white. From examining the layers of paint it seems to have been white>forest camo
>black>white
Im hitting 37-38 downhill now, 34 flats. 4,500 ft. elev, I weigh 175 lb. So ive looked around for awhile and it seems like good mods for hitting 45-55 would be a variator and a pulley. Any suggestions?
