So I hear the green express is up and running....
What did it need and what carb are you guys running? I'm ready to get mine up and running with some scooter help. I may even bring it down to Walter's Sunday.....

just have scooter wave his hand over it

I think I must be kryptonite to that thing. It'll never run right while I'm near it. But yeah, Scooter is magical! Running the stock carb, Tracy. If I heard right, all it needed was a new plug to get it going again. We replaced the cylinder and piston last year--that was the reason all along it wasn't running right. (That'll teach me to run without an air filter for two months.)

yeah, it was rockin too! maddmatt's can shaker and gymme's parts washer did the trick on the stock carb. i had to make a couple special parts to clog the choke cable hole.

Hmmm... so if we don't have a stock carb ya think we can still get her to run? Pretty sure there was spark... wait, if I remember it also has a stock hobbit head and a jammi pipe.... this makes it a little more of a challenge....

Wait, there's only 2 bikes...they rode doubles on expresses? That's pretty badass...

MaddMatt · « **Reply #12 on:** January 19, 2010, 01:58:39 PM »

No silly, one team has the expresses, they will win, the other team rode in a BMW.

EuGene · « **Reply #13 on:** January 19, 2010, 02:39:07 PM »

BMW? An Isetta?

Lindar · « **Reply #14 on:** January 19, 2010, 11:15:14 PM »

I've seen two dudes on an Express before. "Badass" isn't quite the term I would have picked, but...

Tom! · « **Reply #15 on:** January 20, 2010, 12:05:18 AM »

EuGene · « **Reply #18 on:** January 24, 2010, 01:14:04 AM »

. . . and then them dudes see Tom ride by and they say, "Shit, man, no baskets! Looks like crap without 'em." OK, so Tom and those guys have different opinions, yeah? Is either opinion correct? No, opinions is opinions, just like chicken parts!

ire mark · « **Reply #19 on:** January 24, 2010, 02:30:11 AM »

basket's are gay

Tom! · « **Reply #20 on:** January 24, 2010, 02:33:16 AM »

thanks mark.

gym socks · « **Reply #21 on:** January 24, 2010, 08:49:38 AM »

shit...I love a basket, they can carry stuff....just not on my bike..."here carry this for me..." awesome.

EuGene · « **Reply #22 on:** January 24, 2010, 10:49:26 PM »

Some dudes like 'em, some don't . . . neither side is right . . . neither side is wrong . . . they only differ in perceptions and opinions. Right, Tom?

McGreggerson · « **Reply #23 on:** January 24, 2010, 11:13:46 PM »

the maxi i got from my grandparents had express baskets on the back, delivered papers back in indiana out of it years ago. they got pretty broken up though so i took them off. made more than a few walmart runs with them though.

Tom! · « **Reply #24 on:** January 25, 2010, 12:02:46 PM »

Yeah Eugene, you're right, just some opinions are more valid than others. Right, Jimmy?

Mike Pee · « **Reply #30 on:** January 25, 2010, 12:55:48 PM »

Naw man, keep the basket.

¿ · « **Reply #31 on:** January 25, 2010, 01:02:39 PM »

you really think so, i was riding to the store to get a bag of apples, then some guy tried to crash me and called me an idiot. then i got home and told my mom. she said "it's probably cause you are an idiot" i don't care what she says, i'm blaming the basket.

¿ · « **Reply #32 on:** January 25, 2010, 01:23:33 PM »

mabe not

Mike Pee · « **Reply #33 on:** January 25, 2010, 01:29:13 PM »

You shoulda ripped the basket off an hit the dude with it. You're thinking about the basket all wrong.

EuGene · « **Reply #34 on:** January 25, 2010, 01:32:11 PM »

Everybody feels his opinion is better the others . . . probably they are all correct!
