May 11, 201313 yr comment_655799 Zowie, you are an animal. I love how one minute its thousand dollar Mokes then the next minute its $10 SCA spray can jobs on mongrel scooters. One thing RC has taught me is that us cheap kents find a way. Hell, I'm so broke I might wash my cars tomorrow so I can say I 'worked' on them. Report

May 12, 201313 yr Author comment_655924 Looks much better in black! I'm also loving the random things you decide to build... what's next?! thanks mate..! really appreciate it as for whats next, i have no idea mate...lol being made redundant recently, has left us in a hole, financially, and it may be a while before i go to anything extreme i do have Ruckus Front end and a Scoopy rear, so i may have some fun, joining those together still will look into getting this metruck running better, reading up on modding the internals of the 50cc GET engine, and they are cheap and easy(with some knowledge and practice, i assume) so, i may go a cam, port job, bigger carb, etc or keep her as it is, and go nuts with the next one, while keeping this as a daily either way, in the words of Big Kev, "I'm excited..!" Jewelry for the wifey may happs ? :D I know someone that has the mad skillz at jewelry making and she's holding a class this thursday ;) :jamie: that may be an option, mate bring the mrs and learn it together? just can't spend cash, atm... selling the house soon, we are in that bad of a spot...lol Edited May 12, 201313 yr by nerfbat Report

May 13, 201313 yr Author comment_655965 hi mate still got it all i want to make sure its running good for a week or so, before i consider fitting it here, or keep it for the Ruckus, which will be the next build, i reckon i really want a reliable daily out of one of these, before i either give the leftovers to my mate or if by some magic i can, try to keep both Report
