Finished my first build last week and I'm blown away how fun this is. Perfect ride for checking the surf really quick or getting across town. This build began with a crash course in some basic bicycle maintenance - trued a seriously wobbly rear wheel, repacked all bearings and now everything is running smoothly.
Replaced all hardware on the 66cc engine (thanks to SBP, thatsdax and Al.Fisherman), custom front mount (again I owe this to Al - support this guy!), new gaskets, black engine enamel paint all around, vacuum tubing between the fins, plasti dip sprayed on gas cap and inside of the clutch plate for sound deadening, NGK B6HS spark plug, and finally soldered & heat shrinked all connections.
To do list - spray a few more coats of plastidip in the clutch plate, plastidip inside of the magneto cover as well as the clutch lever, upgrade my brakes, get an expansion pipe, and Dax's high performance carb.
Now for a photo. I had a bit of fun messing around with light painting using colored filters and a flashlight - two flavors
