Getting my Sugar_scoot painted! Ordered all the plastics I need, loading it up now to head to the paint shop. Now here's the question, should I paint her back pink with purple flames? Or should I paint her purple with pink flames? I think it might look better with the light pink flames over the darker purple bike. Let me know what you guys think!

I agree with the purple base and pink flames. The effect seems the same as the blue design in the pic (light on dark).

tvnacman A paint shop about 2 blocks from us doing the main body color. Trying to find the guy in Eldorado that does the flames in the picture. He was at Bikes, Bugs, and Bands last year. We had his card, but can't seem to find it now.

 I knew there was something wrong with my scoot last season, hubby said "ride it I don't hear anything.". While putting the tupperware back on today, he started it up. He hears a slapping/knocking noise in the CVT area. Traced it down to the variator.  Now I have to get another one of those. I found the link to it in one of the threads here, same price as Roketa can send it for. DING DANG IT! Can't something go right this year? Oh well, she'll be good as new soon. Not ready to sell her yet.
