So here is one of my other Honda's. When the weather permits I will be rocking this till next winter! Bought it, well financed it new from somewhere here in town. cycle country I think but dont quote me on that :lol: They ripped me a new one so they dont get a good rep for me. When I got it I was getting close to 110MPG. Now that its sitting right around 3k miles its getting anywhere between 95-105mpg. Mainly depends on grade of gas, er brand of gas. It is a regular only machine. Some ass-hat hit the premium button once and i didnt notice till after i filled up. Odd part is it got hella weak ass mpg. If I remember correct it was around 65mpg. I was part of the oregon scooter club, but ever 3 or 4 days they kept sending me messages that I had to pay to be part of their club and I got tired of it so I said f*ck them.

The helmet is a 08 shoei RF-1000. Worth every penny. To stir things up, Please if you ride wear a helmet. even if you live in a state where its not required. They save lives...

    My g/f didnt think the deck would hold it. :lol: I told her that if her and I could stand out there it could hold it. Its only 195lbs with a full tank. I think its pushing somewhere between 3 and 5 hp. Of course thats being generous. So far the only mod is removal of the restricter plate. I want to get a CDI boost box for it. Everytime I have the money and goto order one battlescooter is out. So its stayed stock for the year I have had it.



    Wago, lets race on 1 gallon of gas and who ever gets farther gets the pinks? :lol:

    what is that?
  • skinnyskinny Senior Wagonist
    A cdi boost box is a "piggyback" system. It gives more timing advance, raises the rev limit from 8k to 10.5k, and removes the stock TPS on the carb so you can run a aftermarket. Right now im so light that I hit the rev limiter around 35-38mph. I want to get a new variator but I think the box would be a better bang for my buck at the moment. hit up battlescooter.com and check out all the neat sh*t

    I play with pitbikes a lot. "rev boxes" are a huge ripoff. Buy the cheapest one you can find. They really don't make that big of a difference. Usually the wall you hit is the limitation caused by the carb or head... more so the head. Now don't just go out and slap some huge carb on your 49cc. it's not that easy.

    With a little research and the right parts youll be suprized how much power a little honda motor can put out!

    I helped a friend build a big bore one so I have the general idea of what im going to do. The weak point in these bad boys is there breaks. they suck stock. So any power thrown at them must be done with care. I dont want more top speed I want more get up and go for the most part. Upgrading the breaks is not a cheap venture. I want a big bore chanito motor but I dont have the $500 to do it right now.
