Howdy guys, so in my home state of Michigan I can legally register the electric scooter I've modded with a 50cc two stroke provided that I include the right lighting, I've attached a link to the pdf that contains the requirements...

I cant get the carb tuned right, I know I read a guide for tuning these a while ago. Can anyone point me to one?

most gas tanks on karts are transparent so you can just take a peek and see how much gas you've got

thanks, that tensioner is actually from my friends motorized bike kit where the stupid Chinese motor cracked :rolleyes: same with the sweet exhaust i got

Nice, I like the paintjob

probably not, I don't really care for the look of them, and I do kinda like the rat-rod look of this thing :o
