how are yall slamming your scoots? ive seen alot of them in PR slammed down but im not sure how they are doing that. i can guess the rear are just clipped springs but how do you get it down on the front without throwing everything off of alignment? also where do you get your rims/chrome accessories? very interested. speakerbox is nice on that scoot but i dont imagine that you will have much room for your legs and feet, although us ricans are short and dont need much leg room lol.

dangerous i would say, but it sure looks sweet lol. i guess its only good for the drag strip doing short 1/8 mile run. i seen a bike in PR run 10 seconds in the 8th which is probably about 13 or 14 seconds in the quarter ( which is still flying ) would still like to know where the rims are coming from. ive seen some on ebay but most of them are either outrageously priced or are from outside of the US with massive shipping costs and long wait times. on top of that i would hate to get scammed by some guy in china laughing hysterically as he processes my credit card numbers.

Our group of people we run 8.4 seconds on the 1/8th mile. We always run Alcohol and others in our group run Nitromethane and others run NOS. Rims right now we do not even have and no one has them in Puerto Rico. We ordered rims from China about 300 sets chrome but it takes time for them to fabricate them and ship them. |

Man those are some of the prettiest scoots I've ever seen! The purple is just plain slick as a whistle!  . 8.4 in 1/8th that's what we call in Arkieland, getting with it!  Nice job! JR |

damn thats fast, bet thats not good on the engine though lol i bet a setup like that runs about a couple of Gs by time you get it set up to handle super high octane fuel, on top of the cost to make them look nice, on scooter chrome parts ( whos prices i dont agree with ) the chromed cabinet lid just under the dash runs about 90$, at that rate it would cost a fortune to chrome out the scoots like yall have them.

yeah the storage door, i couldnt believe the prices he has on his website. i added up the cost to add the chromed storage cover, the air vent cover under the seat, the chromed dash cover and a chrome head light assembly and a front fender cover and it totaled over 500$ before shipping, holy smokes!
