This is my basic introduction...I'm new to the ped thing, but old to the scooter and other 2 wheel stuff...
Can't wait for the rally, and I will ride the Maxi in it!

Hey Tony. Welcome aboard.

Wipey · « **Reply #2 on:** July 29, 2010, 01:11:52 PM »

Thanks! I'm excited about it...how was the ride? Oh...and where did you guys tell me to look for parts? I'm thinking aftermarket exhaust is the way to go...recommendations?

The ride was superb. Holmes broke down but we persevered. The ride to Huntsdale/McBaine is great. Holler if you wanna try it sometime.

I don't know about easy bolt on pipes for angles exhaust ports. I'm sure they exist but I am ignorant. Sniff around treatland.tv Look for stuff for Magnum Puchs.

I found that site....bookmarked! I'm wondering if it wouldn't be waaay easier to just go with the single speed motor...

There are bolt on pipes for angle port exhausts, but nothing you'd want to put on a stock cylinder. If you know someone who can weld, though, then you can make a flat-port Puch pipe fit. Or you could just get a Maxi cylinder, and then the flat port pipe would fit. Stock Puch cylinders should be pretty cheap and easy to find.

Yeah. Rock it stock for a while. Save some money and go balls out kitting the e50. He he.

Oh, hey welcome aboard dude.

Ha....yeah, I like that idea! Build me a screamer, I will....
Options...I got options...thanks for the tips!

I have a stock #3 cylinder. It needs to be cleaned up (alot), but it will run. Although that magnum cylinder is well ported... soo...
You should just bug Ryan to help out with a hack&weld job. I'll introduce you...

Wipey · « **Reply #10 on:** July 29, 2010, 01:59:46 PM »

I think maybe for now, yes, hack and weld, and beat into submission is not a bad idea...I just want it on the road!

Wipey · « **Reply #13 on:** July 29, 2010, 06:40:29 PM »

Couldn't make it...had band practice.

I got a '63 Wabbit S601C. John Kamler has it there in STL. Gonna do a refurbish job on it (I don't use that expensive $10,000 "restore" word when talking about scoots)
